We wouldn’t have thought a set of $25 speakers would impress us much, let alone turn out to be our favorites. But Creative Pebble's simple USB-powered 2.0 system defies all odds, producing richer, more immersive audio than you commonly find in speakers at twice the price.

Pebble delivers surprisingly rich, immersive audio... Highs were crisp and clear, and the bass had plenty of presence. The audio overall had depth and detail no matter what type of music I ran through the speakers. Pebble sets a new bar with its well-above-average audio...it offers an inexpensive audio upgrade that’s tough to resist.

They do their job, and they do their job well, because the first time I cranked some music through those itty bitty $30 speakers, I was shocked by what I heard...we are getting quality that I would expect to pay 50-60 dollars for, but instead am paying $30. You will NOT get better quality on the market right now, for this price.

Creative’s new ‘Pebble ‘ 2.0 desktop speakers not only are small enough to fit on any desk ( 4.4 inches wide each) but the sound will blow you away...The ‘Pebble’ delivers surprisingly good sound considering their size — highs are clean and clear and the bass thumps along. With its built-in passive radiators and an impressive combined RMS of 4.4W, the cute Creative Pebble will surprise you.

As with all Creative products, the Pebble speakers do not disappoint. I am really impressed that such a solid, well-designed product can be had for $25 or less. If you need a set of desktop speakers, these are an easy recommendation from me. The quality and affordable price make them an audio slam dunk. Why spend more?

If you have a PC or desk-bound laptop that could use a little boost in the sound department, consider the Creative Pebble speakers. They make for an inexpensive and stylish audio upgrade. Bass is rich and highs are clean. Even at higher volumes, the speakers keep their composure quite well. And they put out more volume than I expected.

Whichever laptop your kid takes to college with them, chances are its speakers will be terrible. The Creative Pebble is an affordable way to rectify that. This is a $20 pair of upward-firing desktop speakers that look and sound better than the price would suggest.

I really like having the small Creative Pebble speakers on my desk to replace my bigger speaker system. It allows for me to get rid of unnecessary clutter on my desk while giving me better audio than the alternative of my Mac or laptop.

The Creative Pebble is an elegant yet inexpensive 2.0 desktop speaker with a surprisingly clear sound signature and 45° tilt for directional audio. Pebble can get loud enough to fill your room and the volume can be adjusted using the knob on the right satellite speaker, which is also used for turning it on or off. It is truly the result of bringing great design and amazing sound together! (Read Full Review: https://daradiser.wixsite.com/productreviews/creative-pebble)

Great performance for a small pair of speakers driven only by USB.

Very good

VERY VERY GOOD SPEAKER!!!!

The speakers is simply amazing, small yet powerful with good punch and controlled sound, I listen mostly to classical music, the speakers produce the music just like any other good quality Hi-Fi speakers !

Loving the aesthetics & sound system on these powerful speakers without any subwoofer. Sounds amazing!

Simple, effective, good general use speakers

Awesome speakers. They blow away my laptop's built-in speakers, as well as a lot of more expensive PC speakers I've had in the past. They don't take up too much space on my desk and the minimalistic style fits in with anything. I think the passive radiator really helps with the bass response. Definitely recommend these to anyone looking to get the most out of a budget setup.

I'm so impressed with the sound quality for such cute speakers and loving the aesthetics to match my setup. Truly amazing!

Punches well above it's weight. Sound quality is crisp with decent bass for its size. Well angled for desktop application mean that positioning it well essentially wraps music around you. For the fact that it's so simple and can be had at such a price point, it's mind-blowing good.

I'm very impressed with the sound quality for such small speakers. The price is amazing for the quality.
