Corsair is well known for its high quality PC hardware range. Now this Fremont, California-based company has ventured into the audio stratosphere. With the SP 2500 2.1 set, Corsair is targeting the gaming audience. The company?s line of gaming headsets and computer speakers are designed to deliver accurate, detailed audio reproduction for a compelling gaming experience that gives users a competitive edge.

The SP2500 is the product of a design philosophy that embraces the importance of clean, detailed audio reproduction?not just for games, but for movies and music as well. This 2.1 speaker system comes with one massive woofer, two satellite speakers and a versatile wired controller for the speakers, which also boasts of a tiny LCD display, and has separate sliders for bass and overall volume. It also has a bunch of EQ modes and a very handy headphone-out jack.

Each two-way satellite has discrete digital amplifiers for both the specially developed 3-inch mid-range driver and the custom-designed 1-inch ferro fluid-cooled, silk dome tweeter for accurate reproduction. You?ll enjoy pristine audio that?s clean and tight, even when pushed to the limits. You?ll also experience stereo imaging that?s nothing short of amazing, creating a compelling experience that?s as close as possible to how the recording engineer intended.

These Corsair speakers are very well built with high quality of plastics and are compact looking. The sub-woofer is quite heavy and can pump out 200 watts of massive bass. These speakers sound absolutely brilliant with games, whether it is a gun shot or a bomb attack or a sound of speeding car.

Musically also, the speakers perform really well. I played some acoustic live sets and also some high-tempo break beats, with heavy bass lines and in both the cases it gave me a satisfying output. So if you are looking for a speaker below 15k with a good bass output for your music player of for your PC, then this Corsair 2500 2.1 is a good choice.
