 Great value for decent USB laptop speakers January 30, 2009

I just plugged these babies in, it was really easy. Just opened the box, plugged the USB cable in, and turned my computer on. You might have to restart your computer if it doesn't immediately recognize the speakers. There was no popping noise like some of the other reviewers experienced. I guess they were just unlucky. They sound pretty good, especially compared to the crappy Altec Lansing speaker built into my HP laptop. Even with every volume control turned all the way up, I could barely here the audio on movies and music which is why I wanted laptop speakers. And I wanted plug and play speakers powered through a USB cord rather than an AC Adapter. And I didn't want to pay over $20. The S150 speakers met all of these criteria. They're great!
Great USB speakers! Bad picture? January 28, 2009

I ordered these from Newegg, and the speakers I received did not have the goofy volume knob on the side. The digital USB speakers should have buttons on the front that directly control the Windows volume bar.
Here is my review from Newegg:
Pros: These USB speakers have crystal clear sound with no buzz or hum. The volume is plenty loud for normal use. They are perfect for listening to music while I work. The stereo effect and ability to produce faint sounds are excellent. No bulky, power strip hogging adapter is needed. The speakers turn on and off with the computer. The USB drivers installed automatically (Windows XP). I cannot believe these speakers are so inexpensive.
Cons: The shipping cost almost as much as the speakers. There is not much bass, but there is more than I expected with small speakers. Music still sounds very good. The bass is certainly better than earphones.
Other Thoughts: I was hesitant to go with USB, but I am very happy I did. I wanted to be able to use these in a bedroom, I wanted zero noise with the computer off, and I did not want to have to remember to turn the speaker power off. Each speaker is 6.5"H x 2.75"W x 2.25"D. The USB cord is about 4' and is about the same length as my keyboard and mouse. I like the power light that reads "DIGITAL". The buttons on the front directly control the Windows volume bar with a mute button in the middle. If the volume level is too loud, you can double click the Windows volume icon and reduce the volume input of the "Wave" device.

Purchased these for a replacement to a monitor I had with built in speakers. I use the Outlook calendar feature extensively to keep me on track for meetings and need the sound feature to keep me moving along. These speakers were just the right size for my cluttered desk, price was very affordable and the sound quality is adequate for my need. I would recommend purchasing these to anyone interested.

I am very impressed by these speakers. At first I was concerned about their cheap price and small size. I was also worried that they would be underpowered because they are USB powered. The price was low. so what the heck. The box says they are Vista compatible. They work great on my Mac too. Had a problem using them with a new Linux Netbook though. Good bass and mids. In fact, I haven't ever heard good base from speakers this small before. I give them 2 thumbs up and 4 stars. I'd give them 5 stars if they worked with Ubuntu Linux.
Nice Speakers - Worked with Vista December 21, 2008

I needed speakers for a PC in a classroom environment which doesn't allow access access to an additional power outlet because the outlet is buried in a large cabinet. I originally purchased another manufacturer of USB powered speakers which did not work. These plugged right in and worked great. No driver problems at all. There is volume adjust on the speaker itself with a mute button.
These speakers are not designed to fill a large classroom with sound, but work fine for my periodic needs.
