Bij GA-Hardware is vandaag een review te vinden van de Labtec LCS-2514 speakerset, bestaande uit 4 satellites en een subwoofer. Uit ervaring (heb het setje ook ) weet ik dat je voor het geld een heel goed product in huis haalt. De reviewer deelt mijn mening:
Wow! That best sums up the performance of these speakers. I used to sell high-end audio equipment, and music sounds good, even if these speakers are not going to replace the Martin Logan's in your home audio system. The subwoofer is especially impressive, really pumping out the bass in a modest size, due primarily to the wooden enclosure and the high excursion driver. Excursion is the distance the speaker actually travels. The longer the excursion, the more air the woofer displaces and the higher volume of the bass. Highs tend to be a little shrill, mainly because of the small size of the satellites.
Games are where these babies really excel. If you have a four-speaker card, the addition of EAX or A3D makes a world of difference, and the LCS-2514 does a great job of producing all effects, ranging from the creak of a door behind you in Thief2 to a Rocket Launcher explosion in Quake3. If you do not have a four-speaker card, Labtec's M3D Matrix Surround provides fairly realistic surround sound. You can individually adjust both the front and rear speaker volumes individually using the controls on top of the right speaker.
