Introduction

When compared to other computer hardware, purchasing speakers for your computer can be a fairly easy task. Below we have listed some things to look for when purchasing computer speakers.

Subwoofer

For most users a standard pair of computer speakers will suffice. In some cases it is recommended, that if you would like extended bass, that a subwoofer be purchased with the pair of speakers.

3D-sound

If you have a sound card that is capable of 3D-Sound and you are a computer gamer, you may want to consider getting a four, five or six speaker setup.

Power

Today, a standard power cord powers most speakers; however, there are still speakers available that are powered by batteries. Ensure you get the type of powered speakers you want.

Appearance

While not thought of as important by many, you may also want to consider the appearance of the speakers. How are the speakers going to position on your desk and or monitor? Are the speakers going to fit on your desk, or are they going to be too big? If you have a subwoofer, is it going to be able to be placed on the floor or behind your desk?

Other considerations

Some additional considerations when purchasing speakers include:

Warranty How long is the warranty and what does it cover.

Support Is the technical support number a free number; is it open 24 hours, 7 days a week.

Price range

The price range can vary depending upon the type of video card purchased, the interface used, the available options, and the type of 3-D acceleration, if any. Below is a listing of some examples of prices you are likely to see when purchasing a video card.
