Summary: Sucks like a Hoover! 2008-12-20
Comment: DO NOT PURCHASE THIS SPEAKER! I bought it and the USB connection has already shorted and gone out completely. I am so irritated with this crappy piece of garbage! I will NOT be purchasing any items from this manufacturer again!

Summary: Not very pleased!! 2008-10-06
Comment: The sound out of these wasn't a whole lot better than what my laptop was already putting out. I ended up buying Logitech's USB speakers, and they are VERY good. I would suggest another product over the Kensington speakers.

Summary: Kensington Laptop Speakers 2008-09-27
Comment: These are nice speakers for the money.
Pros: Compact size; decent sound, not symphonic by any stretch, but decent. I like the fact that I can now adjust my laptop audio volume by means of a dial on the speakers themselves without the need to go into my laptop's audio settings. That is a BIG plus.
Cons: The LED display to indicate the speakers are on located on both wings of the speakers is incredibly bright. It reflects off the windows in the house and the TV and anything else reflective. I could probably use it as a night light :). A smaller less obtrusive display would have sufficed.
All in all, I am pleased with these speakers.

Summary: Piece of Junk 2008-07-01
Comment: This product is similar in quality to the free AM/FM radios that you often get as promotional gadgets. It is not even worth $1.00. My laptop PC is far superior in tone. Actually there is no comparison. The product was returned thanks to a very customer oriented distributor.

Summary: Convenient but underpowered 2008-03-28
Comment: I recently purchased the Kensington 33130 laptop speaker as a gift for one of my daughters. They work well enough and are convenient to use and store, but no one should confuse this tiny speaker set with the real thing. The sound level is not very impressive and they sound tinny. If you want more than the simplest solution, go for something with a little more oomph.
