This is a very nice little speaker for a laptop. It is easy to connect, and clips on quickly to the laptop. It is very light-weight and compact, and has a nice sound. It is a great alternative to bulky desktop spearkers that you connect to a laptop. The cloth case makes it easy to transport with you anywhere you go with your laptop, and it is easy to remove quickly when you need to close your laptop. Overall, a very good product!

Although designed for laptops, I’m using this with a Mac Pro desktop. Coupled with SRS iWOW software that I purchased separately, it produces decent sound for a tiny set of speakers. I particularly like the fact that it’s powered through the USB cable. I have not had the opportunity to use this speaker with a laptop yet, but I think it would come in handy for anyone who needs to do presentations. I’m not a fan of “booming bass” that vibrates the room. If you are, this is not for you.

I have to admit, I didn’t have high expectations before trying out this speaker, but after hearing it on my MacBook Pro-I was truly impressed. My husband is a recording engineer and even he was surprised at the quality of the sound (he said its like a mini-Bose system!) I tried it out on itunes and it was like turning an ugly duckling into a swan-big difference! The next thing I tried was on a skype video call and although it was better, it wasn’t the same as listening to music on itunes. Sound quality was not as good, but that’s not really fair to the speaker, as it is skype’s poor audio quality which is the actual cause.
I would not hesitate to recommend this little speaker-clips right on to the top of your laptop, is sturdy and doesn’t get in the way. Now I’m spoiled and won’t be able to listen to anything through my computer’s own speaker!

My laptop is over seven years old and never had impressive sound to begin with, so this speaker set was a natural fit. Considering the soundbar is roughly six inches long and two inches tall, the sound quality is impressive if not exactly room-filling. Setup couldn’t be easier either, as the unit simply clips on the top of the laptop. After that it’s a simple plug-and-play USB connection. The design is streamlined and classy and doesn’t appear awfully out of place, particularly on newer models with matching colors.
As other reviewers have noted, the soundbar’s perch has the potential to be a bit wobbly, but this is perhaps inevitable owing to its clip-on application. The enclosed booklet even mentions this, and it’s truly not precarious enough for concern unless you’re computing during an earthquake. Aside from the setup booklet, the box includes a USB cable and a nice carrying pouch with a separate pocket for the USB cable. It’s all quite compact and fits neatly in a laptop case. Prior to receiving the Z205 I hadn’t really given much thought to upgrading the speakers on my laptop, but I really can’t imagine listening to music or videos without it again.
