Creative T50 Wireless Desk Speakers - REVIEW

2014-12-08
hey everyone this is Jimmy with Jim's review room so a few weeks ago I had reviewed one of the best bang for your buck portable Bluetooth speakers be creative roar so I decided to give a try on another product from the same company and this time it's a set of desktop speakers now it's similar to the t40 model which had received good reviews but the model have here it's new this now comes with Bluetooth NFC and of course the traditional wired capabilities Logitech bows and Altech Lansing are known for making desktop speakers but none currently offer the option of having a wireless connection and for the reason why you would want to go with a desktop speaker instead of a portable Bluetooth speaker is audio separation you want distinct left and right audio channels which most if not all Bluetooth speakers portable Bluetooth speakers that is really have trouble in so without further ado welcome to Jim's reviewer going over the physical features first these are bigger in person than what I first thought they stand a little over 12 inches tall and three and a half inches wide with a decent depth of 7.3 inches deep the front looks good in my opinion with its glossy black finish and it's woven fiber drivers in gold the middle has a dome tweeter as well in which I'll discuss the audio performance shortly but overall it's one classy looking setup now the right speaker has your adjustments for both bass and trouble with the volume knob on the far right directly below is the power and bluetooth pairing buttons on either sides that glows white when in use and for convenience there's also a three 1/2 millimeter output for using the setup with your headphones instead now looking at the very top there is a base port and rotating to the rears here the left speaker has a fixed audio cable that stretches a reasonable 5 feet to connect this to the right speaker there's also a 3.5 millimeter input for connecting your device physically rather than bluetooth the RCA port for connecting again met left channel speaker and last is your power port that offers a power cable that's approximately 8 and 1/2 feet long but as stated earlier you can pair this with your phone or tablet and have wireless music or movies plying from afar via bluetooth and also a huge plus for those with NFC or near field communications you can just tap your phone on top of the right speaker and this will pair your device for you automatically now I was able to achieve a consistent signal before the audio became distorted by going downstairs and a few feet prior to the opposite side of the house it basically retained its connection that's several walls in the first floor ceiling giving a total linear distance approximately 40 feet so that's not bad at all now regarding the sound test keep in mind the T 50s I have here and like many desktop speakers they're a 2.0 system basically two speakers with a subwoofer now bass levels do hit higher than portable Bluetooth speakers so for sure these are the go-to system if you do value a bit more bass now for a 2.0 system again without a subwoofer they're good but don't expect it to be hitting those deep sub bass levels mid levels are clear and distinct for areas of vocals and music and active voices in movies now as for high notes they do good in general but if watching movies especially those with a lot of explosions sounds of fire and glass breaking or it hit those high notes from time to time it does vary slightly get muffled not singing but the highs get a little jumbled and it loses just a tiny bit of clarity now as for music for the average consumer I don't believe they'll notice it until you put the value at a very high level now these do get very loud for small to medium sized rooms and personal listening leaving these at 50% volume was loud enough for most situations and for large rooms yes these can provide audio in a large room but it would be just that just audio you won't be able to hear the my new details to really throw down a party you can say now as we're watching movies these speakers still do well but only for personal listening at far-off distances audio separation is not as apparent however if you're sitting at a home desk or dorm room desk sitting a few feet away from these speakers the left and right audio channel separation is really good then now I'm glad creative offers again as mentioned earlier a bass and treble nap offering on-the-fly adjustments now the bass doesn't fluctuate too much on 80 50s but the speaker's themselves has enough bass from the get-go to still be appreciated overall the sound signature feels balanced to me offering a good range of music genres to listen to now overall if you're looking for a 2.0 system these really do justice if you don't need the portability and need better sound in your personal area office dorm room these do work great so that's it for my review here I hope this helped you in some way if you like my work be sure to add me gems review room on Facebook Twitter or Google+ to get more updates from me on items before I put them on the website so this is Jimmy again with Jim's review room you guys take care and I'll see you on the next one bye you
