I used to love the way my computer sounded. It rivaled my home sound system and the bass was phenomenal, but then the subwoofer amp died. Later I found that this was a common problem with the system I had - the Klipsch ProMedia 5.1 THX Certified Computer Speaker System (6-Speaker, Black) For such a great system I would have thought Klipsch would have used a decent amp, but unfortunately that was not the case. After all, Klipsch is known for great speakers, not amps. This system had a 170 watt subwoofer amp, with a room shaking frequency response going down to 25 Hz, and five 60 watt two way satellites that had exceptional clarity and presence for a total of 470 watts.Now you know what I was used to listening on. After the subwoofer amp died, the speakers were virtually unlistenable, so I replaced them with a pair of Altec -Lansing speakers that I got free with an old Dell computer several years ago. These speakers were barely listenable, and I would not have paid a penny for them, they were just cheap cr@ppy speakers I had laying around. I just could not afford to make a purchase for speakers, so I settled. It turns out I hardly ever turned them on anyway. Sometimes listening on bad speakers is worse than not listening at all.Now, I enjoy listening to music again on my computer. The Creative Inspire S2 Wireless Speakers have made listening to music fun again! I am really enjoying the way they sound.Setting up the system is fairly easy if you DON'T follow the directions, but follow logic instead. The documentation consists of 2 pamphlets, a read me first paper, in get this, 23 LANGUAGES! There are also 2 small papers for safety instructions and support which can get easily lost. The documentation included with these speakers can clearly be better, and I would prefer just one clear concise owner's manual . At least the two pamphlets do not have 23 languages to navigate but a mere eight, but even eight can be confusing.The first thing you think you would want to do is look at the "Connectivity Diagram & Quick Start Guide" which to the average person would find confusing in any language. I think I would set that aside and just look at the speakers themselves to set them up. It is not too difficult to figure it out that way. First, the right speaker and subwoofer are hard-wired together with a thick black cable, so set the subwoofer under your desk or where ever you desire, but be careful the cable is not very long, that is one of my issues with this system. The left speaker plugs into the subwoofer with a standard RCA pug, it clearly says "To Left Speaker" on the back. Since the left speaker uses an RCA plug you can get an extension cord for it if the provided cord is too short. Next you need to plug in the included AC Adapter, which then plugs into your wall outlet and provides power to the system.The next step is to make sure that your computer is fully booted up and plug in the included USB Bluetooth dongle into an open USB port on your computer. My PC runs Windows 7 and when I plugged it in it searched for drivers and within a minute it installed without a hitch. Once it installed I saw a blue dot of light under the Creative logo on the right speaker. This indicates that the link is established and the speakers are paired. The right speaker is the brains of this system. On the right side of the speaker there are controls for volume up and down, power, and jacks to connect headphones (for private listening) and an "Aux In" to connect any audio device through a standard 1/8 inch stereo patch cable. I have yet to try either, but will update the review once I have.I use ITunes to play my music files so I opened it up and began to listen . Wow, what a difference from those cheap speakers I was using! Oh one thing to note, there is a Bass Level on the back of the subwoofer, so you can dial up the amount of bass you prefer. These speakers are sweet! I immediately noticed improved bass performance, considering the speakers I was using in the interim had no subwoofer, so that was expected. One thing about the bass in these speakers is that it only goes down to 40 Hz, so anything lower than that is rolled off, or simply put , not there. There were songs that I know had these lower bass frequencies and when I listened to them was somewhat disappointed when you hear the notes leading up to the lower end, then they were almost not there. For that reason, I would not recommend these speakers to rap and R&B fans, or any type of music that requires really low bass notes. That being said, as far as the high to mid bass range the Inspire S2 Wireless does a decent job of pumping it out, although it is slightly muddy. Don't expect the room to start shaking though, you won't "feel" the bass from this subwoofer.The two satellite speakers are my favorite part of this system. They look cool with an outer shell of what has a ceramic feel to it, but I think it is probably a type of composite plastic or fiberglass, the gr

? Fuzzy Wuzzy's Summary:???? Recommended with warm fuzziesThis Creative Inspire S2 Bluetooth wireless multimedia speaker system is a three-piece set composed of two small 4-inch-high satellite speakers and an 8-inch subwoofer cube.More of the Inspire S2's features are described and rated below:???? Good 4-fuzzies feature ratings:???? Overall, the sound of this speaker system is very good and has a nicely balanced warmth to it. It does not have an overly "bright" high-frequency sizzle to it (which may or may not be your preference), and when the subwoofer's 'Bass Level' knob is turned about halfway, the highs, lows, and midrange are pleasing to my ears. At low volumes, such as what you may play at the office so as to not disturb co-workers, the subwoofer's bass still makes itself audibly present, and at medium volumes, pop, rock, jazz, and classical music all sound pretty good. The two satellite speakers each use a single 2-inch cone driver and the compact subwoofer uses a 5-inch woofer. As expected, this is a compromise design so you will not get really sparkling high highs and gut-punching low lows compared to a pricier 2.1 sound system that utilizes more drivers and a larger woofer for its subwoofer box. When listening to various kinds of music, I did like its high frequency playback more than it low frequencies; some percussion sounded a bit muddy for the 5-inch subwoofer driver to fully handle. The somewhat-attenuated high frequencies sometimes also made the midrange vocals sound a bit less crisp and slightly muffled. But this little unobtrusive compact system has enough power and volume to fill a medium-sized bedroom or office room with music.This speaker system has no noticeable distortion at low to medium volumes. But when I either turned the volume loud or also cranked up the bass using the 'Bass Level' knob on the rear of the subwoofer, distortion did start to creep into the sound. I am comparing this sound quality to other similar 2.1 (two satellites and a small subwoofer) computer speaker systems that you may use to listen to music while you are sitting at your desk or to enhance the audio of your video games. If I was to compare the sound quality to much more expensive compact speaker systems or "bookshelf" stereo-quality speakers, then I would say that the subwoofer's mid-bass response could be improved so that it was lower and tighter. Compared to small stereo-grade bookshelf speakers, this subwoofer's bass is a bit boomy and loose when playing most kinds of percussion sounds in music, but it should totally suffice to enhance your gaming audio. But this subwoofer's sound is competitive and comparable to most 2.1 computer speaker systems in the $100 to $150 price range.Even though it seems like any electronics with Bluetooth capability automatically increases its price, this speaker system is still competitively priced, especially if you compare it to the much pricier Bose 2.1 computer speaker systems. If you are willing to spend a bit more and Bluetooth connectivity is not important to you, I like the sound quality better on the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX Certified Computer Speaker System (Black) and the Harman Kardon Soundsticks III. However, neither the Bose systems nor the Klipsch and Harman Kardon systems offer wireless Bluetooth streaming of music from your computer or from your iPod/iPad/iPhone, and this is the one main advantage that this Inspire S2 has over those better-sounding systems. But be aware that if you are really looking for good sound quality, Bluetooth is NOT the optimum approach, and you are better off with a wired system. Besides, this so-called "wireless" speaker system is not truly wireless (more of this is discussed below).???? I encountered no problems with connecting the Inspire S2 speaker system in five different configurations: 1) Dell laptop Bluetooth connection to the speaker using the USB transmitter, 2) Dell netbook Bluetooth connection to the speaker using the USB transmitter, 3) 64-GB iPod Touch (4th-generation) connecting via its internal Bluetooth to the speaker system, 4) iPad 2 connecting via its internal Bluetooth to the speaker system, and 5) digital audio recorder connected to the speaker system using a stereo mini-plug cable connecting the recorder's 'Line Out' jack to the speaker's 'Aux In' jack.With the exception of the 'Bass Level' knob on the rear of the subwoofer, the right-side satellite speaker houses all of the speaker system's controls. The right speaker houses the following controls: 1) the power-on indicator light that also glows or flashes green or blue to show its Bluetooth connection status, 2) the on/standby power button, 3) two +/- volume buttons that serve a dual function to also add (+) or delete (-) Bluetooth device pairing information, 4) a headphone jack, and 5) an 'Aux In' jack that lets you connect other audio sources via a (not included with the system) stereo mini-plug cable. During my use of the Bluetooth conn

I recently purchased the Creative Inspire S2 Wireless 2.1 Bluetooth Wireless Speaker System for my laptop, and bluetooth enabled Ipad. My expectations were pleasantly exceeded, not only by the quality of construction and elegant design, but also by the incredible fidelity of these deceivingly small, yet powerful speakers. If you're expecting big window shaking bass, and wine glass shattering highs, then fork out 3x the dough, and get some Bose speakers. But, if your expectations are more realistic, and you compare what you get, with what you pay for, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. The total wattage for this speaker package is 33 watts, 19, for the subwoofer, and 7, per satellite. I'm used to listening to much more powerful home theatre speakers, that don't sound much better than these, in fact, in some ways, these little bluetooth speakers are superior. You can hear nuances at lower volumes, that you don't get with the home theatre powerhouses. The more I listen, the more I like them. I just had to turn them down, as I'm writing this.The sound quality is very crisp, and the volume goes as high as most people can comfortably enjoy. The sound is more than enough to fill a small room. One suggestion I have, is to use the equalizer on your audio player to get the highest highs, and the lowest lows. Pairing is easy as 1-2-3. The USB transmitter dongle (that comes included), works perfectly, with my old Toshiba laptop, that is running windows XP Home Edition. I got the free extra dongle, as part of a special offer, (a $39.00 value), even though the speaker package already came with one. I was lucky enough to get these Creative Inspire S2 Wireless 2.1 Bluetooth speakers for a very reasonable price of $89.99. Subtract the price of the free, extra, dongle, and I ended up getting some rocking speakers for $50 bucks. With most all other wireless speakers, you have to buy the dongle separately. This made the decision to buy these speakers, easy. Even without the free extra dongle, this is an incredible bargain. It's hard to find a negative with these speakers, but if I had to find something I didn't like, it would be the length of the connecting wire between the left speaker and the subwoofer, which can be easily remedied with an extension cable. The only other shortcoming I can think of, is the small on-off power button, is a little hard to find. But, that's almost a non-issue, as they turn on and off, automatically, when you power up, and/or shut off your computer. If you weigh the many pros, against the very few cons, you will come to the same conclusion I did, and decide to buy the Creative Inspire S2 Wireless 2.1 Bluetooth Wireless Speaker System. I think you'll agree, you made a shrewd purchase.

While I am happy with these speakers I had problems installing them and found the instructions virtually useless. When I attempted to find a technical support phone number the best I could do was find an e-mail form which was no use to me. If there is no technical support number, and I can't find one on any of the forms or on the website, then there should be one. The lack of support and poor instructions took away from a good product.There are three forms which have installation instructions. All of the forms are one page folded. There seem to be instructions in approximately eight languages on each big form and 23 on the smaller quick start guide. As a result there is not much space for instructions in any language. If the instructions were only in English there would be one very small piece of paper and two small pieces of paper.The diagrams on the forms are not very clear. I found them useless.When I opened the box, I looked at the quick start guide which said I should set up the speakers and turn the power on and then plug the USB Bluetooth transmitter into the PC. The instructions then said the Bluetooth transmitter would install automatically. Once the speaker LED turned blue the instructions said everything should work.In my case nothing happened. I think the transmitter did not install correctly. I then removed the transmitter from a USB port in the front of my computer to the rear figuring that may have been the problem. That did not work so I figured I would reboot my computer.Unfortunately, after rebooting, Windows 7 would not start and I got an error message that caused some concern. I had to call HP in order fix that problem and get my computer working again. They thought it was a driver issue of some sort but were not sure.Finally, after my computer was up and running I saw something about a driver being installed which may or may not have had anything to do with the speaker. Thankfully the speakers then started working.I wish I had an accessible technical support number to call to help me with the installation. If this had happened I would not have rebooted my computer and likely prevented my computer problem. I also would not have spent 45 minutes on the phone with HP getting my computer to work.I am still not sure what happened but at least the speakers are working fine now and they sound good. I have heard better, but for the price this seems like a nice set of speakers.The speakers are about 10 feet behind my computer which is good because I needed space on my desk and the speakers that came with the computer only got in the way and were not very good. They are better than what I had before and I am pleased with them so far.If the instructions were better or if there was an obvious technical support number I would have given these five stars. I was thinking of giving these three stars but people who know more about computers and speakers than I do probably would not have had the problems I did. So four it is. But beware those who are not great when computers or speakers, the instructions are not helpful and if you have problems you are on your own.
