Customer Review

Let's be in short:

+++ Sound (subjective impression: the higher the volume the better the sound)
++ Design
++ Settings TREBLE and BASS
+ Dust
+ Connections
+ Haptic
+ Very good bass (Test: BASS knob TREBLE knob turn up the volume Turn down the volume on stop
play and the following video: [Jake shows you how it's done, for 25 minutes in HD] -> table vibrates, sound box begins to suck)

- Collecting dust
- Open sound box above - the dust of the pure is because you never get out again

And now times in long ...

THE BASS ...
is great for a 2.0 setup. One should not compare the 2000 Watts Base Machine of Gandalf him. Clear. But my God, the bass is really good! Subjective impression is a dream - making the test: BASE down to stop TREBLE VOLUME to stop then the following video to HD /// [Jake shows you how it's done, for 25 minutes in HD] /// and just one hand on the table and a hand on the hole of sound. Do not be alarmed if the speaker to "suck" begins. Especially you realize only then as dry as dust and defines the bass. High-quality speakers - no buzz - no scraping. I'm really pleased.

THE SOUND ...
is a little more complicated. Here we need only times compare T40 II Speakers 2.0 (GROSS) Creative GigaWorks T20 Series II Speakers 2.0 (small) and Creative GigaWorks. For although my big brothers are around twice as expensive as the little brothers - but I was surprised that the small sound supposedly better than the big ones. With the same volume sounds the small supposedly better than the big ones. For that I might have some basic explanation, but can also be wrong:

Speakers have a volume control. Mostly a "Potentiometer" said variable resistance. The higher the volume the lower the resistance. According to formula applies yes /// U = R * I /// /// so that the current I = U / R /// same voltage U is greatest the smaller the resistance R is in the denominator. The stream itself is calculated using the formula /// I = Q / t /// so applies to the amount of charge q following relationship /// q = I * t ///. Means: The greater the power the greater the amount of charge q in the same period t. Slowly we have thus already worked through us almost to the membrane. At the membrane in turn affects the so-called Lorentz force: moves an electric charge q with velocity v through an electromagnetic field, the total force acting on the charge Lorentz force in the broader sense /// F = q * (E + v * B) / //. What interests us now that the Lorentz force under otherwise identical conditions is greatest when the charge amount is the greatest. The Lorentz force moves the spool and secured thereto speaker diaphragm. Thus, the larger the Lorentz force the greater the vibration of the speaker cone, and the greater the potential SPL. The sound pressure is the pressure change, which is caused by oscillating air molecules. In German, the greater the Lorentz force the more glaring the sound - at least in terms of volume.

So we take together again: The lower the resistance the greater the power the greater the amount of charge the greater the Lorentz force the more glaring the sound.

Now you can of course still the formula of electric power /// P = U * I /// seek the maximum possible current at constant voltage to calculate:

(Note: These are speakers there are no real values ​​calculated much more complex, it is only about the two speakers to compare quantitatively to all sound engineers out there:.. PLEASE DO NOT eat me; D)

Creative GigaWorks T40 II 2.0 Speakers
/// 2 * 16 Watt = 32 Watt = 32 VA [Volt * Amperes] ///
/// I = 32 VA / 230 V = 139.13 mA [milliampere] ///

Creative GigaWorks T20 Series II 2.0 Speakers
/// 2 * 14 Watt = 28 Watt = 28 VA [Volt * Amperes] ///
/// I = 28 VA / 230 V = 121.74 mA [milliampere] ///

By comparison, a commercially available starter battery in the car can briefly give an amperage of 100 to 1000 amperes.
We expect this degree in thousandths Ampere range.

One can see the difference the speaker purely by a maximum dispensed ideal current 12.5% ​​is therefore approximately one-eighth.
Of course, some many other factors play a role - not to be underestimated here is the volume of the sound box.

Long story short - my subjective impression is as follows:

The small speakers get the same current less sound pressure than towards the big brothers. Can therefore produce less sound crass - but have SUBJECTIVE a very interesting advantage:

The small speakers sound at relatively low (absolute but loud) volume better than the big speakers in relatively small (absolutely also speaker specifically low) volume better. In German: If the to be irradiated space small small speakers at normal volume sound better than the big speakers.

The small speakers are designed for absolute terms lower operating point than the big speakers. Sound subjectively better than the big speakers at the same volume at lower relative volumes.

CONCLUSION:

Want a small room in a very good quality sound for without disturbing the neighbors - take the small speakers

Want to fill a large room in very good quality and disturb the neighbors - take the big speakers

Want to completely lose it and go #BerserkModeEnabled - take the large and small speakers

TIP: In case of poor quality of the sound files coming out even brown dishwater out of the speakers - the speakers need at least 320 Spotify Premium - in FLAC files they go right on. So please! Not tested with MP3 and then wonder that the speakers sound awful. Believe me. Is due to the Sound files - not the speakers. They are great!
