For assessing how a clip will sound on tablets and phones, it’s probably perfect, as those contain even more constrained speaker systems. But it has an easily accessible volume knob, two headphone jacks on the side, and gets reasonably loud as it does have powered amps in it. Of course, I expected this since the enclosure is barely 3" deep and about 2" high. The sound is okay, but lacking in bass or any real depth. This setup creates zero visible clutter and takes up no additional table space. My first solution was to use the Dell speaker accessory ( Figure 1, below) that fits under Dell monitors and takes power from the monitor itself, but requires only one audio cable to the speaker from the PC. In this upgrade, I also wanted to eliminate the clutter of wires I had using a 2.1 Yamaha speaker system with my Mac. I recently switched from Mac to PC for my editing.
