Laptops and Their Speakers

Bobcat Premium join:2001-02-04 Bedminster, NJ ·Verizon Online DSL	reply to DownTheShore Re: Laptops and Their Speakers My laptop's speakers suck. They're tinny and way too quiet. I tried these speakers from Logitech - »www.logitech.com/index.cfm/speak···=roeu,en They plug into the USB port. No separate power supply. No connection to the headphone jack. It's nice to have only 1 cable to connect. They sounded good, but didn't work with my laptop's USB port. It's probably my laptop's fault. -- It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Roundel Blau Und Weiss Premium join:2002-03-24 Westport, CT clubs: ·Optimum Online	reply to DownTheShore Its really touch and go, and it also depends upon the model. Most dell's I have come across are decent, My friend has older Inspirion 6000 and they are loud and clear. We have a Vostro 1500 at work and they seem just as precise, a surprise considering its a business unit. Thinkpads I know are horrible and have no volume to them at all.

Cop Premium join:2001-09-05 Auburn, AL	reply to 3SGTE I have tried my friend's pair of Bose headphones and they were plain out amazing. I know they are pretty expensive but they so much base for headphones.

Grail Knight Who Dares Wins Premium join:2003-05-31 ·Verizon Online DSL	reply to DownTheShore Get a good set of headphones as others suggested. I bought three pairs of the PX-100 because they are inexpensive and sounds great on my notebook, mp3 player, and surround receiver. Like anything else they will eventually disappear so get a pair or two well you can IMO. -- “Facts not FUD."

Sound quality without headphones is not bad either after playing around with the EQ. Does your Dell have a Software EQ UI for the speakers? Yes, it does have EQ software. Doesn't improve the sound much using the internal speakers, though. -- Patriotism is not waving a flag, it is living the ideals

Dynosaur join:2009-05-17 San Francisco, CA	reply to DownTheShore You can buy a bluetooth adapter for about $30. You just plug it into a USB pirt and you're good to go. They are really small, about the size of a automobile fuse (the flat plastic fuses).

DownTheShore Maddie Knows Poopie Premium join:2003-12-02 Beautiful NJ clubs:	reply to john262 I cheaped out when customizing the laptop and didn't get bluetooth because I didn't see a use for it. In hindsight, I should have spent the extra twenty at the time.

john262 join:2003-09-26 Elko, NV	reply to DownTheShore Either use your laptop's built in bluetooth if it has it or if not get an inexpensive bluetooth dongle, then get a pair of bluetooth headphones. It works great for me.

DownTheShore Maddie Knows Poopie Premium join:2003-12-02 Beautiful NJ clubs:	reply to DownTheShore I'm not really that fond of headphones - have never really had a pair that was comfortable for an extended period of wear. I've got a pair of JBL speakers with a subwoofer hooked up to my desktop, so the sound is fine there. I suppose I'll just have to get used to the tiny and tinny sound from the lsptop...

Ctrl Alt Del Premium join:2002-02-18	reply to DownTheShore My MacBook Pro has surprisingly good speakers, very clear in the mids and high end, but they completely lack any bass response. The speakers are just too small to move enough air. I always have my laptops hooked up to external speakers when on a desk. -- less talk, more music

Doctor Four My other vehicle is a TARDIS Premium join:2000-09-05 Dallas, TX ·AT&T U-Verse	reply to DownTheShore I'm using my laptop primarily as a 2nd desktop, so I took an extra pair of inexpensive desktop speakers I had and used them with it. The sound quality from them is fairly decent. I plugged them into the headphone jack on the front. -- "The trouble with computers, of course, is that they are very sophisticated idiots." - Doctor Who (from Robot)

PeteC2 Got Mouse? Premium,MVM join:2002-01-20 Bristol, CT clubs: ·AT&T Yahoo	reply to Cthen Well, after all, the allure of notebooks is their size and light weight...to build a superior set of speakers in a sub-6lb electronics package would be a pretty neat trick! That is why as I say, I want and expect "clear" sound from my laptop speakers, but no way do I expect a superior, wide-range experience. dadkins has the best answer, IMHO, which is if/when one needs a high level of audio, headphones are the answer! -- Deeds, not words
