TOP 12 best speakers for a computer according to customer reviews

In 2019, it's hard to imagine a personal computer without an audio system. Most often, active systems of 2.0 or 2.1 format are used, connected with a standard wire with a 3.5 mm jack, but now even simple built-in sound cards support at least 5.1 format. A better sound card will diversify the connection methods. After reviewing user reviews, expert comments, I have compiled a rating of the best speakers for a computer in 2019.

Best Computer Acoustics 2.0

OKLICK OK-161

Model OKLICK OK-161 opens the rating. Equipped with 6 W speakers, and miniature tweeters are responsible for the treble. The range of reproducible frequencies is 150–20,000 Hz with a noise level of 55 dB and an impedance of 4 ohms. Copes with the entire spectrum that the human ear can discern. Sound can be routed to headphones through the rear panel jacks. With solid dimensions, the speakers are powered by a single USB cable. All volume adjustments are made by a mechanical control on the right side of the main speaker. The body is made of wood and plastic, which guarantees the exact direction of sound waves during operation, no rattling when the volume is increased.

Benefits:

• affordable price;
• attractive design;
• good sound;
• convenient volume control.

Disadvantages:

• short wire. It will not work to arrange the speakers far apart;
• low bass level.

For the money, this is a very good 2.0 format system. Price - 810 rubles. For this money, you will get a system with a USB 2.0 connection, a large frequency range, beautiful design, in which I like the convenient volume control most of all. The only drawback I would say is that the wire between the speakers is very short: you will not be able to place them at a great distance from each other. On the Yandex. Market 78% of buyers recommend this product.

Genius SP-HF160

The Genius model is made of wood and is available in black and brown. It looks too simple, does not stand out from the rest. The system is equipped with speakers with a total output of 4 watts, which is slightly less than the previous model. The range of reproducible frequencies is 160-18000 Hz. The small built-in amplifier does the job perfectly. These speakers are also connected via a USB cable, like the OKLICK OK-161 model. All volume settings can be changed with a mechanical control located on the back of the master speaker. Cord length - 1.2 m.

Benefits:

• affordable price;
• built-in small amplifier;
• more juicy sound than other models.

Disadvantages:

• no headphone input;
• there is no bass control;
• no power button;
• volume control is located at the back of the speaker.

The model definitely deserves our attention. These are good wooden speakers with a USB connection - you can plug them into your TV. The feature of this model is the built-in amplifier, there is no such thing, for example, in OKLICK OK-161. Due to it, this system has a more juicy, rich sound. I find the location of the volume control on the back of the speaker very inconvenient, the impossibility of placing this pair at a distance of more than a meter from each other due to the short cord between them.In all other respects, this is a good model that matches its price - 990 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 85% of buyers recommend this product.

SVEN SPS-702

The classic SVEN SPS-702 system stands out from Genius SP-HF160 and OKLICK OK-161 with its power - 40 W, which is an order of magnitude more than the listed competitors, the ability to work with a reproducible frequency range from 40 to 22000 Hz. On the front panel of the case there are volume controls, bass and treble tone controls, headphone output. On the back panel there are connectors for connecting audio signal sources: PC, DVD, CD or MP3-player.

Benefits:

• power - 40 W;
• high frequency range;
• mains supply;
• volume and treble, bass controls on the front of the case;
• the ability to connect to different audio signal systems.

Disadvantages:

• the wires included in the delivery set are of poor quality, it is better to replace;
• off button - at the back;
• wheeze at maximum volume;
• when the computer is turned off, the background is heard from the speakers.

This system differs from competitors in the level of power - it is higher. If this factor is key for you, you need to take a closer look at this audio system. Very convenient treble and bass controls are located on the front of the speakers, not at the back, as in the Genius SP-HF160. Of course, these speakers are not ideal: wheezing is noticeable at maximum volume. They give off a lot, for example, when the computer is off, but for its price - 2590 rubles - this is a very good option. On the Yandex. Market 78% of buyers recommend this product.

Edifier R980T

Compact active speaker R980T for organizing a workplace in small spaces. This is a new generation of active speaker systems. The connection between active and passive speakers is via a cable that is securely fixed in the clamping connectors. The new model is equipped with a Class D digital amplifier based on the popular TAS5707 - 20-W Stereo I2S Audio Power Amplifier with Speaker EQ and DRC. The digital power supply is based on a pulse transformer. R980T develops a total output power of 24 W, which is slightly less than that of SVEN SPS-702. The speakers are built on a two-way scheme based on 4-inch woofers of the original design. The bass reflex is located in front - you can put the speakers close to the wall. The laconic design and compact size of the speakers allow them to fit on any desktop. The speakers can be connected to audio devices for two pairs of RCA inputs. Volume and bass controls are located on the rear of the powered speaker, making it easy to customize your listening experience. The AC power switch is also located here.

Benefits:

• beautiful view;
• active speaker system;
• volume and bass controls;
• good sound quality;
• sufficient bass level;
• the phase inverter is in front;
• do not wheeze at maximum volume.

Disadvantages:

• volume and bass controls are located on the rear panel;
• when the computer is off, the lights are loud.

Excellent active audio system, with almost no flaws. Everything is great in it: design, sound quality, bass level, build quality. I didn't like the fact that the volume control is on the back, but this might be the best solution for you. They are not as powerful as SVEN SPS-702, but they will be much better in sound level and bass. Price - 3400 rubles. I think it's better to pay extra and buy these speakers, not SVEN - they are simply better. On the Yandex. Market 91% of buyers recommend this product.

Best Computer Acoustics 2.1

Ginzzu GM-415

The Ginzzu GM-415 is a stylish 2.1 multimedia speaker in a robust enclosure with a lacquered subwoofer front panel. The robust subwoofer and loudspeaker enclosure provides high quality sound across the entire frequency range from 40 to 20,000 Hz with an output power of 50 watts, of which 30 belong to the subwoofer. Thanks to the remote control, you have to approach the audio system just to connect a sound source to it. The model provides Bluetooth 4.0 technology: you can connect different devices to the audio system.There is a built-in amplifier, USB-flash audio player, SD-card, FM radio, remote control-21 buttons, stereo input (2RCA), equalizer, MUTE, STANDBY modes, subwoofer. The speakers are made of wood.

Benefits:

• Beautiful design;
• Bluetooth 4.0;
• remote control;
• equalizer;
• audio player USB-flash;
• affordable price.

Disadvantages:

• not the first time connected via Bluetooth;
• poor build quality;
• the power of the speakers is overestimated, in fact it is lower.

Quite a good budget 2.1 system, which is suitable for home listening. I think the feature of this model is the presence of Bluetooth 4.0 technology: in 2019 this is a very popular function. It may not work perfectly here, but it still exists. I was very pleased with the presence of a remote control, an equalizer with the possibility of various settings. Of course, the system is not without flaws. But at a price of 2840 rubles of its money, it is definitely worth it. On the Yandex. Market 89% of buyers recommend this product.

SVEN SPS-820

2.1 speaker cabinet made of wood, classically austere, elegantly noble. The functionality of SVEN SPS-820 is convenient, and the sound is powerful and loud. The volume and tone controls, as well as the volume of the subwoofer, are located on the front panel of the subwoofer cabinet, which makes operation comfortable. On the back panel there are connectors for connecting audio signal sources - PC, DVD-, CD- or MP3-players. Wall mounting of speakers is possible, it is practical. This is not possible with the Ginzzu GM-415. The system provides high quality sound over the entire frequency range from 180 to 20,000 Hz with an output power of 38 watts, of which 18 belong to the subwoofer. The system is inferior in power level to the previous model, but in sound quality it is not worse. The model does not have Bluetooth, remote control.

Benefits:

• beautiful view;
• low price;
• the ability to wall mount speakers;
• good bass and sound level;
• volume and playback controls are located at the front.

Disadvantages:

• no Bluetooth, remote control;
• low sound power;
• fragile and short wires;
• the off button is located on the back of the subwoofer.

SVEN has released a fairly good model on the market, but I would not call it modern: it does not have Bluetooth, a remote control. These are trifles, but they radically affect my choice. Compared to the previous model SVEN SPS-820 has a lower power, but this did not affect the volume and sound quality at all: the sound is loud and clear. If the absence of Bluetooth is not important, then I would advise you to take on this system. Price - 3990 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 75% of buyers recommend this product.

Microlab M-880

The M-880 BT is the beloved 2.1 speaker system that multimedia users have come to expect with new features along with Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology like the Ginzzu GM-415. Thanks to the wireless connection, now the acoustics do not have to be located near the sound source - they can be placed where the interior requires it. Along with wireless connection, the system can be connected via a standard 3.5 mm stereo plug, so it easily connects to non-Bluetooth devices (computer, TV or MP3 player). Has an elegant and laconic design. Thanks to a 5.25-inch subwoofer speaker, the M-880BT system, like its predecessor, has excellent low frequency reproduction, provides high sound quality over the entire frequency range from 50 to 20,000 Hz. The output power is 48W, of which 27 belongs to the subwoofer. The controls are located on the front panel of the subwoofer. The treble and bass balance controls let you customize the sound. The enclosure of the subwoofer and satellites is made of MDF, which increases acoustic performance. The system is suitable for watching movies, TV programs, CD / DVD and Mp3 / Mp4 music playback.

Benefits:

• Beautiful design;
• original backlight volume control;
• Bluetooth technology;
• good sound quality;
• affordable price.

Disadvantages:

• the volume control strips on the speakers and buffer are barely noticeable;
• short cord for the subwoofer;
• no remote control;
• in the dark, the volume control illumination is very bright.

A very good audio system with an attractive design, good volume reserve, Bluetooth technology, which is not available in SVEN SPS-820. I liked such a trifle as the bright blue illumination of the volume control. In the dark, it illuminates the whole room, so you have to cover the subwoofer with something. In general, there are few shortcomings in this system, they are all subjective: for some they will not be shortcomings. Price - 5650 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 86% of buyers recommend this product.

Edifier C2XD

With a modern, rugged design, the C2XD is the perfect audio package for music lovers and gamers. Edifier Electronic Intelligent Distortion Control (EIDC) technology controls sound quality in real time, eliminates distortion when changing volume. Subwoofer and independent amplifier are built for superior sound. An elegant external amplifier not found in the listed models. Signal sources, speakers, a subwoofer are connected to it, it has controls on the front panel in the form of sectors around a color-illuminated rotary knob. The small subwoofer with a 6.5-inch speaker has 35W of power and the speakers are 18W. The wireless controller will give control of volume, frequencies, signal selection, mute and standby functions.

• Edifier Electronic Intelligent Distortion Control technology;
• external amplifier;

Disadvantages:

• high price;
• connectors for connecting speakers do not allow to build up a wire normally (standard - short);
• when headphones are connected, the volume is very low: you have to unscrew the regulator at full power;
• no bluetooth.

A very beautiful and modern audio system with an external amplifier, none of the competitors can boast of this. There is a technology that improves sound quality, eliminates its distortion - Edifier Electronic Intelligent Distortion Control. These are the main advantages of the model. The main disadvantage, I would call the lack of Bluetooth technology: it is even in the cheaper model Ginzzu GM-415. There are practically no flaws in this technique, so I definitely advise you to pay attention to it. Price - 8500 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 86% of buyers recommend this product.

Best Computer Acoustics 5.1

Sven HT-200

SVEN Company presented a 5.1 speaker system SVEN HT-200. The set of acoustics works smoothly, precisely. The model can be controlled with a fully functional remote control. Twenty-seven buttons - you can configure the system to play the desired type of signal (movie, music, FM radio), adjust the sound volume, set the time on the built-in clock, turn on the "Sleep" and "Stand By" modes. Installation of system elements according to the recommended scheme creates a vivid "Sound around" effect. To save space, the satellites can be hung on the wall - the kit includes a set for wall mounting them. The subwoofer and each speaker reproduce the most natural sound possible. The built-in processor that converts the stereo signal to 5.1 format is very useful when watching movies from a computer, since the audio signal is "decomposed" into 6 channels, so it gives a completely immersive effect. The subwoofer has a power of 20 W, and the total (system) power is 80 W. The peculiarity of SVEN HT-200 is the autonomy of the acoustics from the PC. The sub has a built-in audio file player that reads sound from SD-cards and flash drives, a radio receiver and a clock are also built in. On the back of the subwoofer there are two stereo inputs and a 5.1 input for connecting a DVD-player or 5.1-channel sound card. All provided options can be controlled both from the remote control and through the control panel.

Benefits:

• built-in FM radio;
• informational LED display;
• the ability to convert a stereo signal to 5.1 format;
• connectors for USB flash and SD card;
• modes "Stand By", "Sleep";
• the ability to wall mount speakers.

Disadvantages:

• no HDMI connector;
• short wire between speakers;
• the subwoofer gets very hot;
• low bass level.

A model without any special "chips" - a conventional 5.1 audio system. It does not stand out for any super performance, but it produces a fairly good sound quality. The bass is weak, no matter how you twist it: it will not be enough, but there are no such problems with the volume reserve. FM radio catches all radio stations, does not lose them, works perfectly. Price - 6600 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 86% of buyers recommend this product.

BBK MA-880S

BBK has launched a very stylish and technologically advanced 5.1 audio system. The MA-880S has a built-in Cyber ​​Logic decoder for converting a stereo signal to multichannel. Separate volume control of the loudspeakers is possible for detailed sound adjustment taking into account the characteristics of the room acoustics. MA-880S is equipped with a USB port, SD card slot, digital FM tuner. It can be used to play music on its own, without connecting external devices, like the Sven HT-200 model. Regardless of the source of playback, the sound will be clear, rich, since the speaker system uses Sonic Boom technology (a single sound standard for all BBK audio equipment). The delivery set includes a cable for connection to a computer sound card, a remote control. The total output power is 150 watts, of which 32 belong to the subwoofer. The range of reproducible frequencies is from 23 to 20,000 Hz.

Benefits:

• built-in Cyber ​​Logic decoder;
• a single sound standard for all BBK audio equipment - Sonic Boom;
• total system power - 150 W;
• good build quality;
• great sound.

Disadvantages:

• FM radio is poorly tuned;
• when turned on, the subwoofer hums a little;
• the sound volume is regulated by the button;
• frequent defective speakers, but they are easily changed under warranty.

BBK are world renowned masters in the audio segment. Although this model is from the budget segment, it produces a very decent sound, which is controlled by buttons, and not by the usual rotary switches. The Cyber ​​Logic decoder significantly improves sound quality. This is a very good addition, the Sven HT-200 cannot boast of such a "feature". The reference technology Sonic Boom is used, it is even in expensive BBK audio systems. I want to warn you: the speakers that come with the kit are often defective. If you come across these, you can replace them under warranty. Price - 6990 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 29% of buyers recommend this product.

Microlab FC-730

The Microlab FC-730 is a powerful 5.1 speaker with a classic design, although I like the BBK MA-880S design better. The proprietary EAirbass technology improves the sound of low frequencies, and due to the wideband FineCone series speakers, the volume of music is provided, filling the entire space of the room with high-quality sound. Speaker cases made of high-quality MDF eliminate acoustic resonances and make the sound as natural as possible.

For ease of connection, all switching is placed on the rear panel of the external amplifier. The subwoofer is made of strontium-ferrite alloy, which gives a structurally pronounced bass even with a large linear cone travel. There is a wireless remote control for comfortable system control. Another advantage is the ability to connect multiple devices at the same time (for example, a computer and a player). The choice of the sound source is carried out with one button without switching wires. The total output power of the system is 84 watts, of which 24 watts is supplied to the subwoofer. The range of reproducible frequencies is from 30 to 20,000 Hz.

Benefits:

• proprietary EAirbass technology;
• full-range speakers of the FineCone series;

• the subwoofer is made of strontium-ferrite alloy;
• good value for money.

Disadvantages:

• appearance;
• low overall power;
• short wires;
• there is no way to hang it on the wall.

Microlab FC-730 is a very decent 5.1 system, which will definitely please with good sound quality, smooth bass: it is so lacking in Sven HT-200. The proprietary EAirbass technology does its job perfectly.I liked the sound quality more than in the BBK MA-880S. The design seemed to me very boring: the same MA-880S looks much more interesting, more modern. Price - 11,390 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 75% of buyers recommend this product.

Logitech Z906

The 5.1 speaker system of the world brand Logitech provides high quality sound, which is confirmed by the THX certification.

The system can be connected to up to six supported devices at once using 3.5mm, RCA, 6-channel direct, digital coaxial and optical inputs.

This system is very powerful, with a maximum level of 1000 watts, a choice of playback options, excellent sound quality, which is confirmed by the THX certificate. There are no HD audio format decoders in the system, and the BBK MA-880S has a state-of-the-art built-in Cyber ​​Logic decoder. Price - 28640 rubles.
