Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech AudioHub Notebook Speakers

Customer Review: Perfect
Summary: 5 Stars

This is possibly one of the best add-ons i can think of for a laptop. The speakers on my Inspiron 1525 were poor at best and were just barely good enough for Youtube videos. So today i said enough was enough and what i find but the Audiohub. At this price I didn't expect much but WOW, these babies can blow. Highs and mids are perfect, bass could be a bit louder if you ask me but you can expect much from a 3" driver. By all means these are no Studio Monitors but for a semi-portable system the peaker system with comparable sound is the Bose? SoundDock? Series II digital music system for iPod? - Black and we can all see the price difference, not to mention the fact that it's not for laptops. All in all if you're disappointed in your laptop speakers output you shouldn't be reading this review you should be checking out already. However one word of caution before buying, Logitech advertises this as being able to expand outwards to accommodate screen sizes up to and including 17". If you have a widescreen laptop, which means any AR past 4:3 you may be S.O.L. My 15" Inspiron 1525 fits by a margin of about 1/4 of an inch per side. So if you have a larger screen it may block the speakers. Other than that I cant say much else negative about this product.

Customer Review: Perfect for your laptop's "home station"
Summary: 4 Stars

I must agree that with other reviewers who have said that these are NOT portable speakers. If you are looking for speakers that you can lug around with you on the road, this is not the product for you. Rather, the AudioHub is designed for your laptop's permanent "home station". I use the AudioHub on my desk at work. It fits perfectly nestled inside the Griffin Elevator that I place my 15" MacBook Pro on. The fact that it has a 3-port USB 2.0 hub built into it is brilliant. I can leave my iPhone dock, keyboard & mouse connected to the AudioHub. Every morning, I just place the MacBook Pro on the Elevator and connect 2 things: AC power and the AudioHub (via USB). That's it! I love the simplicity and elegance of this.

Good Things:

- Great sound for such a small device.
- Very compact. Takes up very little space on your desk or your floor.
- Volume dial on the side is super-convenient.
- No additional software required. Works perfectly with the USB digital audio support built into Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Turning the volume dial even causes the on-screen display of the volume level to appear.
- Nice, elegant design. Very austere and functional.
- Solidly built.
- Awesome deal at $19.99 + shipping!

So-So Things:

- Not very portable. Best for scenarios where the AudioHub is going to stay put.
- No audio input jack. This would be useful if you wanted to use the speakers to occasionally play music from your iPod/iPhone.
- Not very loud. If you want to fill a room with loud music or a movie soundtrack (e.g. for a party), then you need more powerful speakers. The maximum volume of the AudioHub works best for "near field" listening: one user at the computer.

Bad Things:

- Susceptible to GSM buzz. I need to keep my iPhone at least 2 feet away from these speakers to prevent GSM buzz from occurring. This is a minor annoyance and keeps me from giving the AudioHub a perfect 5 star rating. I also own Logitech Z-2300 speakers and they are completely impervious to GSM interference.
- The speakers seem to "sleep" when no sound is played on them after a while. When this occurs, the speakers will emit an unpleasant (and almost certainly unintentional) "click". When you again send sound to the speakers, they will "click" again as they wake up.

Customer Review: logtech audiohub speakers
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an incredible speaker system for the price. It sits behind the notebook and really needs to be used as a stationary speaker system. I would not recommend you buy this if your need is portability as this speaker is a one piece system and a little clunky to carry around from room to room.
Other than this, it is an exceptional sound system, especially for the price. The sound quality and volume capability is very good and does not crackle when the volume is turned up. However, there is no bass or treble options with the volume control.
Overall, I am very pleased with this speaker system. Also, it was delivered as promised and actually arrived sooner than was stated.

Customer Review: Nice design and sleek look
Summary: 5 Stars

In a first look I'd decided to buy it for my laptop and for travelling purposes. It has great sound quality and clarity. Add-on feature for webcam is awasome. Ease of operation for volume control style is also very well designed. Overall, it's good product to have in your home.
