I use these speakers in the office on my laptop and they have nice sound. I've been using a set for about 2 1/2 years without any problems. You can keep good sound quality even with the volume turned down. If it's a late night, you can crank up the sound and really enjoy them. Buying these is a no brainer, a great value for the price!

I have a Laptop and I can barely hear those speakers. I received this as a gift. The sound quality is just not there and no adjustments for tone. The volume isn't much and the set-up with the wires and adapter is bulky. If you just want a speaker, for a speaker and don't care about quality these would be o.k. But I've seen smaller ones that work as well, -disappointed.

      I wasn't too happy that I had to pay for my own speakers for work, but I was happy to find these speakers for only about [$]. I've only been using them for a week, but they do the trick and the sound is great. I have to keep the sound low, and these go lower than my previous ones, with no static. I think they were a great buy.

      Comments about Cyber Acoustics 1.5 Watt 2-Piece Desktop Speaker System:

      I purchased some USB powered speakers for twice the price. For some reason they wouldn't work with my machine so I got these as a replacement. Even with the tiny A/C adapter, these speakers take up just about the same amount of space in my luggage as did the USB speakers. Plus, with these speakers I can use them with other equipment that accepts the standard headphone jack (the USB powered speakers only connected by the USB cable). The sound quality was fine. Granted, it won't fill Carnegie hall, but I use them to amplify my laptop for training video playback to a room of 50 people with no problem and no sound distortion.

                • A:

                  It depends on the size of you TV headphone jack. These speakers come with a 1/8 headphone jack. There are also stereo headphone plug adapters that will allow you to adapt your jack to other sizes.

                1 answer

                • A:

                  These speakers do not connect to the USB port. They plug into a wall jack or plug strip, and then there is a wire that plugs unto the audio jack in your computer. There is approximately 4' of space/wire between the speakers.

                • A:

                  This particular model only requires a sound/audio Jack.

                  Take the cable with the green plug coming from the back of the right speaker and plug this into the green output/source jack in the back or front of the computer tower, also referred to as the sound/audio jack.

                  Yes, the cord runs from the back of the powered speaker and plugs into your audio source's speaker/headphone jack (radio, computer, tv).

                  The speakers are powered through the USB port, however you need to also plug them into the computer's audio jack for sound.

                  These speakers come with a 1/8 headphone jack. This is the standard size for most MP3 players, smaller portable units. The standard size on a stereo is 1/4 inch jack. There are also stereo headphone plug adapters that will allow you to use a 1/8 in a 1/4 inch and vise versa.

              • Q:

                I've owned these speakers for several months, and they have always had a problem with one or both of the speakers "cutting out" or seeming to go dead. If I "pump" the power button, it usually restores them, although it can take several attempts before they're both working properly and not cutting out. This generally goes on for a while until one of them cuts out again, and then it's a rinse and repeat. I've usually just used my headphones, but then, what's the point of having the speakers if I can only get consistent sound through my headphones? Any idea what could be causing this or how to prevent it from continuing?
