Labtec Spin 70 speakers

Over the last year I?ve started to use my computer more and more, with both work and ciao and the like. Despite having a CD-Rom drive I always played CD?s on my Hi-fi and it wasn?t till I moved it downstairs for a bit that I considered using my computer, as like most computers these days it came with software to play CD?s. Since then I haven?t stopped using it and also now save on batteries by listening to the radio through the Internet whilst I work rather than from my radio as well. Don?t ask why I didn?t think of this before!! So having received very basic speakers with my computer I decided to see what was available in the market to improve the sound levels. ...  Read the complete review

I originally bought my PC about 4 years ago, and until recently, the only things that were left from the original specification were the keyboard, case, and speakers. A few months earlier, I had treated myself to a nice Creative Soundblaster Live! card, and also a nice Pioneer DVD-Rom drive, and so if I was going to watch DVD movies, or listen to my Cd collection, something would have to be done about those speakers. While walking through Dixons one day, I noticed these nice big speakers sitting on the display shelf. They had the one feature that I had been looking for in a set of speakers which was an earphone socket on the front. Funnily enough, although ...  Read the complete review

I have a set of 1070 speakers that I bought about 2 weeks ago and basically they have brought the audio capability of my PC alive. Before that I had a little pair of un-amped speakers that broke up if you put too much power through them. Now I have my Labtec 10-70's, nothing can phase my PC! I have great audio booming out of these speakers at home so that I can listen to cd's while I work and excellent surround sound for when im playing my 3d games. They are about 12 inches tall with a rather unusual design. They have grey cloth fronts hiding away the tweeters and mid range while large ports in the middle let the bass pour out freely and ...  Read the complete review

I use PC Speakers for my CD player because I find that for my style of music (rock) these are much better than hi fi's and those wooden speakers because they are not too bassy and they usually have treble/bass controls. I wire my PC Speakers to my Phillips CD player headphones socket and this is how I like my music cause I can crank it loud without worrying about too much bass distorting and ruining the music. Now before today (when I got these speakers from Dixons after researching on the net), I was using Creative 5 watters, these were great but had lost some sound quality after 2 & a half years of use (cranking music loud). So I decided it was time ...  Read the complete review

I bought my computer almost a year ago but I never actually used it for music until the last couple of months. Being a student, which means shortage of cash, but at the same time wanting a decent set of speakers for my PC I went out in the shops prepared to try everything. And I did, or so I think. There are a lot of PC speakers out in the market right now, ranging from £15 (for the very basic) to several hundrends of pounds. I decided to buy a pair of Labtec Spin70 speakers after they were demonstrated to me by a friend. Having seen the price earlier, I did not expect that kind of quality of sound to come out of these two quite small ...  Read the complete review
