I had these for a few months before I moved. They are decent. Not bad.
Other reviewers mentioned the hum - it IS an issue. But only if you have them plugged into something else that plugs into the wall. i.e. It did not happen when I had them plugged into my iPod. Unless I touched the ipod, or plugged it in to charge it, then they'd hum. The hum was never noticable when music or anything was playing, only when silent. But you wouldn't want to sleep to it. And the only power switch is round the back..

Having read the generally very positive reviews I took the plunge and bought these speakers to replace my cabridge soundworks 5.1 setup. The sound mid and top range is stunning, crystal clear. The speakers do lack on the base side and could do with a subwoofer jack so there is an option to boost the bass levels. Some reviews critisise the sound, bass etc. Put this into context I have a £2000 NAD HiFi that sounds better, but for £65 from amazon these speakers represent massive value for money. Not worth the £120 rrp though. Oh.. and these speakers sound a million times btter than 5.1 surround sound for music. Buy you will not be dissapointed (probably!!)

I was surprised at just how good these speakers were for the price.
The build quality and cosmetic enhancements are superb.
The volume control is conveniently located and the speakers even come with a headphone port.
The sound quality is really good at most volumes. When you turn up the volume control to max, the sound is a little empty and lacking in terms of detail, but there is really no reason to crank up the volume on these speakers, especially when you have them located behind and to the sides of your laptop.
For £7.58, it really doesn't get any better. Low to fairly high volume output are really full detailed sounds and the headphone port is a good bonus even though I don't use it.
I can't think of any negative comments ... Read More:

I bought these speakers because I liked their design and the price. Now, after testing them I can only say, that you should not expect any good clean sound from them. From 2-way speakers [of this size] I definitively expected more. They are ok for the price but that is it.

USB speakers will never be as loud as their mains-powered counterparts, but these speakers do a very good job from the 5v USB output on your laptop with the bonus of working everywhere.
They are a great idea if you want something that's very portable and guaranteed to be usable even when there is not a mains power supply to hand.
The speakers fit into a small fabric bag for storage (included).
The sound quality is surprising and extremely good up to around 3/4 power, after which you will find that extremes of treble will distort. The bass level is very good for the size of the speaker. As a guide, you can comfortably listen to music and video in a quiet 12ft x 12ft room, but the sound won't overpower a loud conversation ... Read More:

I agree with the other reviews - it's a fantastic product. For me it's the perfect blend of high sound quality, decent volume, and portability - it's both lightweight and small, and I've had no problems with it whatsoever. Brilliant buy.

Having read 2 reviews about the great quality of sound I was disappointed with the 'boxiness' of Creative Inspire 265. They were not as clear as my previous 9 year old speakers. Undoubtedly at £11 they represent great value for money but at best the quality of sound is no more than acceptable. You get what you pay for.

When you first receive this, the first thing you notice is the size of the box. This thing is huge and very heavy. I got home and ripped the paper off the box and opened it. Everything is nicely packed and tight. The sub-woofer is huge and as I was living in a flat, i got a bit worried that this may be overkill as the neighbours would be constantly complaining, but as it happens, the bass is easily managed and isn't too much of a disturbance.
Connecting everything up is easy enough. There are connections on the back of the subwoofer which you connect all the speakers up to and its all very simple. The wireless remote allows you to alter any of the settings you wish.
All in all, these speakers offer fantastic value for money. The only ... Read More:
