THX certified speakers from Creative.
Computer speakers seldom live up to expectation and often suffer from poor sound reproduction. Not so with Creative's THX-certified 7.1 Gigaworks S750's.
THX is a standard for top quality audio and visual equipment. If you see products with this stamp you can expect a high level of quality and the Gigaworks certainly don't disappoint.
The seven satellite speakers are nice and heavy, which cuts down on distortedsound. The sub-woofer, which delivers the bass, is similarly well-built and is capable of pumping out serious sound.
We tested the speakers using Creative's Audigy 2 ZS sound card (THX certified as well) and a variety of sound sources including DVD movies and CD audio. In all cases the speakers delivered clean, well defined sound.
The bundled remote control means you can control every aspect of the speakers from the comfort of a chair. You'll need a decent sound card to get the most out of them but if your PC lives up to the specification, you can't wrong.
