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 ... Read More:

I got this speaker 9 months ago. They are really good i must say.. the bass is deep and rich and is boombastic.. the two tiny speakers look very cute and produce equally gud sound. The only problem is the volume knob on the top of the satellite speaker. if u manage to get dust in it , it will create a screachy sound.. which mine does at certain sound levels. But i manage it with the comp vol or just by truning the knob to a comfy level. Its just the dust which might be creating a prob..may be only with my model. Else its superb!... Its a gud buy.

Hi folks. I am currently working in Iraq in an environment with constant low level background noise and so decided on the strength of reviews to buy these speakers to supplement my laptop speakers. If you are in a similar situation - DON'T. The output is absolutely feeble. Indeed, my computer speakers were better.
What is worse though folks is that after installing these speakers, my own computer speakers crashed out and disappeared. A computer expert here restored the system and found that they did exactly the same thing to his own computer. So, unless you are a decent computer geek, I would avoid these like the plague.
Extremely dissapointed to say the least.They get one star because at least they work.

I managed to pick these up for £15 in a clearance sale somewhere, what a bargain! Always go for Logitech when it comes to computer speakers and I've been wanting some for my laptop for a long time, but a tight budget led me down the dark path of lesser brands.
When I first plugged these in, the bass nearly killed me. My last laptop speakers needed the bass turned right up on the equaliser and adding that to the awesome power of the V20's, its surprising the house is still up. The volume was also a pleasant surprise, I've got my music blasting out with my computers volume on the lowest setting.
Not 100% convinced by the little buttons for changing track etc cos I have those functions on my keypad, but either way these speakers look good, ... Read More:

These are excellent speakers, fantastic sound, very stylish and really easy to install. The speakers have more power than most people will ever need, and are well shielded, so they can stand near the PC. Two minor points - I have a Realtek sound card, and I had to tell it there were 8 speakers, not 6, in order to get the rear speakers to play (more an issue with my card, than the speakers, but I offer this as advice to anyone wondering why they aren't getting the full surround sound). The point which knocks a star off is that the cables on the rear speakers are too short so extension cables are necessary if you want to run cables around the edge of the room and not across the floor

I have had these speakers for about 2 years now and the bass is not that loud, it doesnt realy give the music that thump and when you put the volume to full you can hardly hear the bass so over all id say its ok for small rooms.

I bought these thinking they must be ok if they were originally £70, and also Philips - a well known brand! However I am even more delighted since I set them up and started listening to my music! I've played Classical and Rock on them so far and I have to say the mid range is better than some dedicated radios/hi-fi systems i've heard - I am more than happy with this product and I've already recommended it to a number of my friends!
Great to look at too, charges my Ipod Nano 2nd Gen without any issues - just can't wait to use it when i'm on holiday now!

I have had my house party II for a couple of years now and only used it occasionally on holiday or when working away. It had worked perfectly fine and I was greatly pleased, but! .... I too have begun to experience the large and very annoying "popping" noise between tracks, so much so that I can no longer enjoy my music. To my reckoning I have only used my speaker system less than 100 hours before this started to happen. A great shame because before the popping started I would have gladly recommended this product, now i doubt if i will ever buy another gear 4 product.

I bought this with the sole intention of using it with my laptop for DJ'ing. I had previously just used the laptop's built in sound and wasn't impressed with the overall sound, too bright. This little gem sounds superb, a nice balanced sound that made my laptop sound a lot more professional. I was worried that the USB would add latency and cause trouble with outputting 4 hours non stop music, I needn't have worried, the Sound Blaster handled it all without any trouble. Well pleased!!
