I just tested the Creative Pebble X Plus and it's the cheapest way to get speakers and a subwoofer — but might not impress audiophiles

Black Creative Pebble X Plus computer speakers.

A subwoofer can make all the difference to your sound setup and the Creative Pebble X Plus is one of the cheapest ways of getting a 2.1 channel system. These computer speakers are accompanied by a compact subwoofer, and they’re perfect for small spaces. The subwoofer produces meaty bass while the speakers give lead vocals lots of room to shine.

But while the bass and lead vocals are excellent, everything else feels lacking. The treble as well as the backing vocals feel like they’ve been pushed back, and the companion app doesn’t let you make any adjustments to the sound quality.
