GOgroove Computer Speaker Mini Soundbar - USB Powered PC Sound Bar with Easy Setup Wired AUX, Stereo Audio, Microphone Port, Volume Control Knob, Under Monitor Design for Desktop (Black)

I’m so pleased with this purchase! I’ve been having trouble whenever I work remote with the volume of my laptop. Nothing seem to fix it, and other speakers that I had tried didn’t work. This one works beautifully, even at a low volume setting. I no longer have to strain to hear what people are saying in meetings! And I love that it is a knob that you turn that makes it easy to control the volume. I find that buttons are not well tuned and often go too far too fast. The only odd thing are the plugins. There is one for headset, and one for speaker. each is marked with the appropriate symbol. The only problem is the headset one is what works for the speakers. And the speaker one works for the headset. Was easy to figure out the first time I used it what was wrong, but it’s something that should be fixed by the manufacturer!

This my second Mini Soundbar I just purchased recently. I like the easy setup and no bulky power source like the other computer speaker requires. Sound quality is okay for normal task, but for watching DVD the frequency is limited.

The sound is significantly better than my old external speakers. But the real bonus was easy access to the headset and microphone plugs. PROS: Nice looking; Great volume control dial. Reasonably good sound (for the price). It does what I want it to do, so I am satisfied. I got rid of my wobbly two-speaker set that never fit right on my desk; fell over often and had awkward controls. Price: I thought the price was good... free shipping was a bonus. CONS: Not enough to be an issue but here are some observations: 1) The volume control doesn't have a mute. That would be nice 2) The plug n play feature didn't automatically kick in. Had to set it as the default speakers over the internal ones. (WIN 10 Settings...). I had a brand new computer so many settings were the defaults. Took a few minutes to figure it out and after the GO Groove was set as the default, have had no issues. I gave it a rating of 3 stars based on this little annoyance. 3) Volume from some sites doesn't respond much to turning the volume up. Sometimes have to adjust the master volume (taskbar) or sometimes nothing jacks up the sound. Some yahoo videos, etc may not broadcast with output volume, but may improve if you use a headset. It's not a big deal but you should be aware since there are several places to adjust volumes and they can impact your listening.

The built-in left channel speaker in my longtime HP ENVY 27 IPS monitor (which has Beats Audio capability) recently became inoperative. Definitely a hardware issue, as the 3.5 mm headphone output jack on monitor still retained both channels. Rather than repairing, decided to purchase external speaker(s) which would plug into the monitor’s headphone jack. After considering various options, ordered GOgroove’s soundbar speaker product. Good choice! Very pleased with result. Hook up was easy—USB-A cable connection for power and 3.5 mm headphone jack cable for plugging into monitor headphone port. Plus, unit’s volume control knob is illuminated by blue LED lighting when powered on. This knob also switches off the device and associated blue light when turned fully counterclockwise. Additionally, the soundbar has its own separate 3.5 mm headphone port for listening that properly mutes the external speakers. Likewise, there is a separate 3.5 mm microphone input port; but I didn’t utilize due to my webcam setup. In terms of performance, speaker output and frequency response seem to be quite adequate—in fact, comparable to the original monitor speakers before left channel went out. Another plus is that new external GOgroove soundbar fits neatly below the monitor bottom with resultant pleasing aesthetics--and doesn’t require any additional space. Only concern is overall long-term durability and reliability--which is unknown. However, GOgroove.com does offer encompassing 3-year warranty (with 2-year extension) upon purchase registration.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my kids' computer. It sounded great for the price and passed through both audio and microphone channels with great clarity. I was careful to make sure to install it in a way that the input wires would be out of the way and would not be touched or moved. This didn't even last a year without BOTH the microphone and speaker cables shorting out. Very cheaply made considering that these were plugged in and laid out in a way that would prevent them from being jostled or moved. I purposefully installed this to try and mitigate the wires from shorting and they shorted anyway.

Positives: Looks pretty cool. I bought it for two reasons and one was that I thought the design was really cool and it really is as nice as it looks in the picture. The volume knob is really awesome. I always like the knobs better than up/down buttons and such. The blue glow is nice and not blinding at all. It is actually like a 'glow' rather than a 'light' which is nice. Its pretty cool to have the mic/headphones jack too because my PC is a decent bit under a desk that I don't like climbing under to plug in. Which is the second reason I bought it and what is going to lead me to the negatives. Negatives: The headphone jack hums pretty badly. I also bought a new pair of headphones and wasn't sure which was the cause but after plugging directly into the PC vs into the gogroove speaker it was obvious that it was this thing. I'm pretty tolerant of things like this but its even kind of bad for me. Which kind of ruins this for me and I will probably be looking to replace this a lot sooner than I had hoped. The next bad thing is the sound itself, no headphones, is really not that great. There is no low end at all. And to put this in to perspective, I am not exactly an audiophile at all. I've been using these little usb speakers that came with my old Gateway PC from like 10 years ago. This was meant to replace those but those honestly sound a lot better. This is going to sound really negative but to be honest... I'm not real sure what good this thing is for anyone. Its too big to really pack up and carry around with a laptop or tablet and the sound quality is about the same as most laptop speakers anyway. It looks nice on a desk but the sound quality is not good enough to be the sole desktop speaker. If you have a separate subwoofer and some L/R speakers to go along with this, maybe might be useful. It makes a decent center speaker I suppose. Also I just want to point out the tilt is a great idea. It needs more though. Unless you're like 12 feet tall the speakers are still pointing very much toward the ceiling. So if you read this GoGroove, Re-engineer this to have about triple the angle on the tilt and add something to give it a little more bass and you'll have a really nice little soundbar style speaker set here. But if you're looking for something cheap but decent enough to manage your desktop's sound (or even laptop/mobile device) then I'd look elsewhere. It is a bit tough because of how flooded things seem to be with these mini usb/bluetooth mobile type speakers to find decent desktop solutions without paying hundreds on overpriced audiophile speakers... I'm thinking about just going old school and building up an old analog stereo system! :(

Let's start with the negative first : The wires are a bit on the short side and non removable . So if you need some extra length you will have to get so extenders , however if it is placed on a typical desk with a PC next to it this shouldn't be a problem . Next is the headset plug . It seems to have a bit of hum with when there is no sound but not noticeable when watching a video or something . Lastly , there is some distortion at higher volume levels , so be kinda weary of cranking this thing The good : the quality of sound is pretty good for a cheap sound bar . The connection is easy , just plug it into a usb port for power and then plug in the 3.5 mm into either line out or headset ports of what ever you want to use ...it even works great for the consoles by plugging it in to the controllers! Overall I recommend it for those that want some decent sound for a pc , console or whatever . I got it because the monitor I bought has no speakers and this works perfectly .

I was looking for a nice, compact speaker with a headphone jack to use with my bedroom TV to replace a set of Logitech speakers that crapped-out on me. I wasn't originally looking for a soundbar, but this one ticked-off everything on my list so I decided to buy it. I'm really happy I did - it sounds better than the Logitech set did while fitting in with the decor with a much lower (smaller) profile. Sound is good, but not great, as the bass is lacking and the sound distorts some when you crank it up. But the mid-level sound where you'll be listening most of the time is really good. It's working great for TV sound; much better than the stock speakers in my cheapo TLC TV. Ask yourself - what do you expect from a speaker of this size and price? I promise you, the sound will not disappoint. I should mention it looks good too. Good feel with indents on the volume knob and the blue light is subdued and barely noticeable. Think midrange Harmon Kardon looks. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and recommend these speakers.

La Soundbar mi è arrivata puntuale come sempre da Amazon che rispetta i tempi. Comunque il prodotto come dicevo è stupendo e si sente veramente molto bene. Io l'ho comperato perché le mie casse con il subvufer mi si sono rotte e volevo comperare delle altre ma anche avanzare spazio e dopo un'attenta ricerca ho deciso di comperare questa soundbar. Comunque qualità e prezzo molto buono anzi ottimo, arriva confezionato bene e il suono si sente molto molto bene visto anche che io lavoro nel video Editing l'ho trovata attimo come prodotto consigliatissimo👍. Nel video che ho postato il volume era a metà e non distorceva il suono anzi era stupendo ottimooo.

Justo lo que buscábamos. Un altavoz que sonara bien, se pudiera acceder a él fácilmente y sin cables a la vista por ahí sueltos. Además, prácticamente no ocupa espacio aún siendo tan grande porque queda perfectamente integrado con el monitor y estéticamente queda muy bonito. Suena bastante bien, quizá no suene de lujo si lo quieres utilizar para escuchar música a mucho volumen, pero si es para hacer un uso de volumen ordenador, vídeos, etc, es perfecto. Lo recomiendo!

So far works like a charm and looks good

このレビューを書く2か月前に購入しましたが、その時は2千円台だったので良かったのですが、、。 さておき、音質は結構いい感じ。PC向けのスピーカといった感じでキーボードの後ろに置いて使っています。 一つ残念なのはスピーカ側のヘッドフォン出力からはこの本体を経由した出力ではなく、入力をそのまま出力する、、つまり、ボリュームの調整が効きません。

Je suis content de mon choix et le tarif est correct, cette enceinte prendre pas trop de place sous mon écran et son design est joli avec son inclinaison sympa et à porter de main je l'allume facilement, concernant le son il est pas mal et quand même assez puissant avec ce bouton lumineux discret, bref je recommande ce produit !!
