Buy the Logitech V20 not the V10

I looked at both the Logitech V10 and V20 which are the same price in Australia at the moment to hook up to an Acer notebook which has very low volume with it's speakers. I think they might have discounted the V20.

When I got the V10s home I found the sound tinny and it had to be cranked up to the max 100 and even then playing a DVD it wasn't great. So quickly I was back at the shop I bought them from to get my money back. They didn't stock V20s.

At another outlet the sales assistant offered to demonstrate the V20s on a notebook in the shop. The V20s are twice the depth of the V10s otherwise pretty much the same height and width. They have a lot more bass (perhaps a bit too much) but you can listen to a lot of stuff online without being at the full volume capability of the speakers.

At the same price the V20s were a no brainer. LIke many here I needed a USB speaker for convenience when travelling. THe carry case for the V20 is far superior to the V10. The V20 case is the same size as  more

Laptop Speaker Review

Pros: Lightweight and portable with carrying case. Power comes from
USB connection. Sound is an upgrade from internal laptop speakers.

Cons: Low power. Sound gets distorted if volume is turned all the way up.
For classical music or turning up a rock song a bit get more watts. Laptop sometimes does not recognize the hardware. Don't pay more than
$20 regardless of list price since that is all they are worth.

great speakers...

i received these as a chritmas gift to go with my Dell XPS 1530 laptop, Windows vista home premium recognized them as soon as the were plugged in. They are great speakers for music, as well as video games, i play WoW (world of warcraft) and they sound great.
If you're looking for concert sound, these are not for you... but if its good sound and highly portable you're looking for, def. pick these up
