Pacific Digital – Great Speaker Value

My girlfriend was the one who first recommended the Pacific Digital computer speakers to me. Considering I was so used to my laptop’s speakers, I was quite awed with the sound quality of the speakers. Then she told me the price and I was all like, “WHAT!” The sound quality in no way represents the price.

I’m not usually one to spend money on accessories like this, but the sound was so much better than I was used to that I had to make an exception. Considering that I love listening to music, the speakers were a good choice.

My previous purchases were the fantastic Slipdip Soundworks cubes (which were probably around $120 or so). They lasted about 6 years and were followed by the not so fantastic Phoenix King speakers something or others (about $66). The Phoenix Kings lasted about a week before the cabling started to wear. I did some repair work on it but after a year I finally was sick of constantly twisting and whirling the connectors to get sound back.

The only minor problem I have with them is that the wires are really long, so if you have a small amount of space the wires kind of “bundle” up and clutter your workspace a little bit. It get’s everything all tangled. Between the speaker wires, my DC adapter for my laptop, the wire for my mouse, and the wire for my external hard drive, there are a lot things to keep in mind when setting up these wires.

Otherwise, though, these are remarkable and perfect for anyone who listens to music or watches movies a lot on the computer. I attached this system to my workplace laptop. It meets my expectations, for sure. I run my MP3 player, FM radio, and laptop through it and they all sound adequate. And you can’t argue with the price. Great job Pacific Digital, you’ve done it again.

Nothing is more American than listening to music while wearing stonewashed jeans!
