Logitech OEM S150 2.0 Speaker System - Black

Wow, the quality of the sound is amazing for such a cheap item I would recommend buying them

Easy to set up. Sound quality ok for just a bit of background noise in the office whilst at work. Could have done with a longer cord between the left and the right speaker - i found it was tricky to get them lined up the way I wanted. They are a compact size and have a quality feel to them. Pretty pleased with them overall

I’ve been using the Logitech OEM S150 2.0 Speaker System for a couple of weeks now, and for the price, it’s a solid set of speakers that deliver more than expected, especially for those on a budget or in need of a simple, no-fuss option for basic audio needs. Design and Build Quality: These speakers are compact and lightweight, perfect for a desk setup where space is limited. They have a clean, minimalist design that fits well alongside my monitor and other peripherals without taking up much room. The build quality is decent – while they’re mostly plastic, they don’t feel too flimsy. The USB connection for both power and audio is convenient, especially if you want to avoid using a traditional power socket. Sound Quality: For a 2.0 system at this price point, the sound quality is pretty good. The audio is clear for general tasks like watching YouTube videos, streaming music, and making video calls. While they lack heavy bass and won’t impress an audiophile, they do a fine job for casual listening and basic multimedia use. The volume gets reasonably loud without distorting, but they’re not designed for filling large rooms with sound. Ease of Use: Setup couldn’t be easier – they’re plug-and-play with no drivers required. Just connect the USB to your computer or laptop, and you’re ready to go. The volume control buttons on the front are easy to use, though I do wish there was a bit more fine-tuning ability, as the jumps in volume can be a bit noticeable at times. Portability: One of the best things about this system is how portable it is. Because they’re powered by USB and so compact, I’ve taken them along on trips to use with my laptop. They don’t weigh down my bag and offer much better sound than my laptop’s built-in speakers.

I've been a musician for 25 years. If you want bass, forget these. If you have cloth ears, forget these. If you just want speakers that thump and hiss, forget these. if you want speakers for an incredibly low price that bring out the emotion in the music, don't even read to the end of this review, order them. When they arrived, I was immediately disappointed. The cardboard box from the postman was too light. "These can't be the speakers. I hope they're not the speakers", I thought. They were. Opened the box. Too small. Too light. Damn. Will have to send them back. What the hell, might as well listen to them. Got all the polythene off them eventually, plugged them in. Set the audio options so that the ugly 'USB AUDIO' was selected. Opened iTunes. Hit play. Hey, these aren't bad! They're pretty musical. Within 30 seconds I heard things in a tracks I've listened to dozens of times that I'd never heard before. Wow! Put on something with a lot of bass. There wasn't a lot there, but what there was seemed pretty accurate. Played through bits of 20 or 30 tracks I know very well. I'd have been perfectly happy listening to them all the way through. The wire between the speakers is about a metre in length The only reason these cost a tenner is that they're light and plastic and cheap to manufacture. Otherwise they ooze class. I'm going to buy another pair to carry around with me and keep these for my bedroom. Biggest bargain I've seen for a long time. Just wondering if I can find a sneaky way to add a subwoofer to add in the bass...

Really pleased; work well; and do not buzz, which my old ones did when they were supposed to be quiet.

I bought this to replace my speakers when I noticed that the power supply wire was damaged. I decided to go for USB powered speakers as I don't use the computer for serious listening and would rather reduce the number of transformers connected to my plug sockets! Also my other computer came with similar speakers and I am quite happy with those. They could also come in handy for those people who use a laptop. The speakers are entirely USB driven, using digital audio output as well as power from the USB port and they give a surprisingly good and crisp sound, though you can't expect to get deep bass sounds. No installation was required apart from plugging in. The main criticism of the unit is that it does not have a volume control knob or an on/off facility, but instead relies on three knobs to raise, lower or mute the sound, operating directly on the windows sound control in discrete jumps. As a result you cannot fine-tune the volume without accessing the relevant control on the computer, and you can't turn it off when you don't need any sound. Also I am not keen on the light advertising its digital sound, which is always showing. When the unit arrived there was a a fault in the speaker on one side, evidenced by a slight rattle when playing deeper sounds at any volume, so I had to have it exchanged. I am sure Logitech should have done a better job with their quality control. Fortunately Base were very good and gave me a replacement without any quibbles. So overall I would give this 3 stars. Hopefully Logitech will address the issues mentioned, but who knows?
