Logitech X-240 2.1 Speakers

I bought these speakers because I was tired of listening to my music on crappy laptop speakers. I see what people are talking about by the "hum". When I plugged them in, the subwoofer hums a little - HOWEVER, if you are playing music, you don't hear it and if you aren't using the speakers, then just turn them off and viola - no hum. The little subwoofer pumps sound. I'm actually worried I might annoy the neighbors and I don't even play my music that loud!!! I will also be using the speakers to watch movies and the sound is great. I'm no connoisseur of speakers, but from one lover of music to another - these are a great bargain!!! I'm glad I didn't spend any more money - plus, these are currently being shipped free - huge savings - GO FOR IT - they are worth $40!!!!

I was looking for a decent set of computer speakers with a subwoofer and an iPod dock. For $40 the Logitech X-240 seemed like a good deal to try. How true! I had actually first tried a similarly priced set from Best Buy that was terrible. Now, I'm no audiophile, but the X-240 speakers sound just great to me. We're not listening to music on a high-end audio/home theater system, but mostly mp3's on a computer after all.

The set is physically very conveniently compact to fit in and under a small workstation area. The separate iPod dock is also the speaker volume control. I know some people have complained that the dock is too light to stay put when all the cords/wires are connected. I have found, however, that while that is initially true, it quickly stops being an issue when you settle on a good ergonomic spot on your desk for the dock. Also, a nice feature is being able to use the speakers with your iPod while the computer is off.

Again, I think these speakers are a really good value for the average computer user that wants decent sound for a very reasonable price.

Small and compact with big sound. Connected straight to a new LCD TV, so
I wouldn't need a separate amplifier & remote, and they sound and look great. I have the larger Logitech THX speakers on my desktop, too, but these sound really good for less than 1/2 the price. My wife was pleased.

This is a great product. For way less than an iHome you can have a 2.1 surround sound system with much better quality and versatility.

This is my first system with a subwoofer and I love it! The price is great for what you get. The down through subwoofer literally rocks the floor. The thing that really sold me is that I can play my iPod without turning my computer on. This system has excellent sound for a starter set.
