    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

  3. Gear Corner Review : Creative GigaWorks T40 Speaker System Review

    Reviewer: Audioholics
    1 July 2008

    Overall I really liked these speakers.  For the money I would like to see a little better low end, but with the slim design of the cabinet and the 2.5" drivers, it just ain't gonna happen.  I think this also limits how loud the system will play (although with co-workers, you will probably not be able to play these as loud as they are capable).  It would be nice to see this speaker system priced under $100, but I don't necessarily feel the system is overpriced. If you... Read more

    High-impact sounds from games such as Unreal Tournament 3 faired a little better than DVDs, as long as we kept the volume under control -- upping the volume made the speakers work too hard. You'll find the GigaWorks T40 system works best with music -- we'd recommend it ideally for a small room or dorm. Read more

    The Creative GigaWorks T40 PC speakers sound good for a stereo setup, but are fairly pricey. Read more

    I bought these speakers on recommendation from several magazine reviews and when I got them I was impressed at the sound quality and the bass that comes from only two speakers without a subwoofer. I use these with an older Dell XPS laptop and also with my iphone and I am just blown away at the sound from these. This was the best [$]dollars I spent and I have no regrets. Read more

    I got these speakers originally to use with my little bookshelf stereo in my office since one of its speakers has gone bad. I didn't want to get some new system with multiple little speakers and a big bass box - for my office, two speakers are plenty. However, it was really hard to get these T40's to work with the stereo using the included adapter, which was just a little one-piece mp3-jack-to-dual-RCA-plug thing that didn't work with my stereo. I would have had to get... Read more

    I guess speaker sound is a matter of taste since some of my family members like the sound of these speakers. In my opinion the manufacturer has tried so hard to get lots of bass from these inexpensive speakers that they have neglected the mid-range and highs. If you like hip hop music and thumping muddy bass that obscures everything else these may be for you. If you prefer full clear mid range and soaring highs you will give them away. Read more

    These spearkers are horible. They sound as if they should cost $10.00. For th price the sound is very low and the quality is inferior. I have speakers that cost $70.00 that sound much better Read more
