    On their own, the T40 are a solid set of computer speakers that won't eat up too much space on your desk. Of course, you can pay $400 USD for Bose's tiny Computer MusicMonitors, but the T40 are far more budget-friendly. We're jazzed by the on-board tone controls and optional iPod dock, too, making these a decent choice for music on your desktop. But if you want even better sound, we recommend M-Audio's Studiophile AV line, which give you a bit more bang for your buck. Read more

    The Creative T40 speakers provide the most audiophile-like experience we have heard on a budget speaker system. The sound is neutral and not exaggerated like most of the PC speakers we have heard. While the speaker character may not be for everyone, we found them to be much less fatiguing to listen to for extended periods of time. If you are tired of the PC speaker sound, you might find the T40's to your liking. Read more

    Creative have finally released their much anticipated Gigaworks T40 speakers that retail for a recommend price of $199 that not only boasts decent sound quality and appearance but is quite affordable in relation to other similar products on the market. Read more

    I think that this kit might not be the best choice for the 150$ it cost. I tested it with my Creative X-fi Fatal1ty soundcard at various settings and as I mentioned earlier I think that the sound is great and clear even at highs and lows but it lacks som bass that I require from a speaker kit that cost 150$ USD. Now I know it is a 2.1 system without a sub but the features says it has BasX port technology which should give more bass than an average kit. On a sidenote I... Read more

    These would have been considered a half-way decent pair of speakers ten years a-go. I bought this pair of speakers based on all of the positive reviews that I'd read on-line. Is Creative Labs paying kids off to post positive reviews (Don't laugh - Other companies have been known to do so)? Adding insult to injury is the price comparable to the quality. I feel like such a "sucker" at this point. I will never a-gain buy a product from Creative Labs. Read more

    I heard the T40's today and was actually disappointed with the sound. I had to really tweak the equalizer on my computer to make them sound decent, and even then they were not too hot. I plugged my really old Logitech's back in and they sounded better. These just sound tinny and I was hoping for deeper sound. I think I will look at the Edifier's or some newer Logitech's. Read more
