 Not bad June 17, 2008
Mr. C. GARLAND-SMITH (London)
I have to be honest, I selected these because they looked nice and they're not expensive.
The sound is not very good (especially if you turn the volume up - they do sound tin-y)
Also, I didn't realise how big and heavy these actually are. I only bought them so I could carry them round on holidays but that's rather out of the question now.
Not bad, not good. If you really need a decent pair of speakers for your laptop spend a bit more ...
 Quality product and service February 27, 2008
Mr. P. Stafford (Tyne & Wear)
I've gone through two sets of cheap and nasty lightweight speakers, so i ordered these on the 25th Feb (supersaver) and i recieved them on the morning of the 27th (excellent delivery time). These speakers are only a few pounds more than my other tacky speakers but the sound quality is tons better for sound clips and music. I've purchased Logitech products before from Amazon and received the same quality product and service each time.
 Buzzing Sound on Right speaker January 30, 2008
Mark Lennard (UK)
Bought these speakers and after using them for an hour a started getting buzzing feedback on the right speaker. It appeared to be caused by vibration of the cone. If I held the front housing the buzzing would stop. I thought the sound quality produced was acceptable but only just even to my untrained ear it sounded a little bit tinny. But for this price I wouldn't expect deep bass without a sub woofer. I thought the sound quality at volume drowned out lyrics and was far worse than the pair of cambridge soundworks speakers they replaced.
Esthetically the speakers are large standing quite tall off the desktop. the buzzing was the big dissappointment I had to return them.
Excellent sound quality from small-ish 2.0 speakers January 19, 2008

Having read the other reviews for these speakers, I thought I'd give my opinion. I bought these to replace my Logitech R-10s because of their lack of clarity and bass response. What's the point in having compact speakers that don't sound good enough to make you want to listen to them?!
My first impression was that these X-140s are a bit bigger and a lot heavier and more substantial. They look and feel like they're built to last. They have two extra features too - a tone control for treble/bass balance, and an aux stereo minijack input on the front so you can connect an MP3 player without disconnecting them from your PC.
The X-140s are two-way as you can see through the metal grilles. The top tweeter cone takes care of high frequencies while the bottom cone takes care of the bass. Splitting things up like this gives much better clarity and bass response. The sound quality of these is sooooo much better than the R-10s without taking up much more desk space. The most impressive thing is the stereo imaging - these really create a realistic sound field if you sit in the middle.
Another major plus for me is that they come with a standard mains plug rather than one of those bulky transformer plugs like the R-10s which take up way too much room and usually stop you using the next-door sockets.
Some other reviewers have commented that these speakers don't go very loud. Well, I'm not sure that you can expect to use 2.5 watt desktop PC speakers for a house party. I want something that sounds really good without taking up too much space. If I wanted serious volume/bass I'd need something with a subwoofer, but then it takes up loads of space and irritates the neighbours! And these are only 15 which is a major bargain.
To summarise, I am really happy with these. They're well made, built to last, give excellent sound for their size/power, and look like they'll last for years. You have to give 5 stars for getting all this for 15.
Good for the price January 7, 2008
Mr. RJ WILMSHURST (UK)
For around 15 these speakers are pretty good. The cables are of a decent length and most importantly the sound quality is quite good. Obviously these don't sound as good as a decent hi-fi, but the bass is reasonable for 15 units. So I would recommend these for general/background music on your PC. However if your PC is your main media centre then you'll likely want to spend nearer 100 on a speaker set.
