If you are looking for a nice and powerful audio experience, you don’t have to stay just with the small speakers that you received with your computer. The computers evolved a lot in the last decades, and so did the computer speakers. There are so many of them now, with many shapes, sizes and prices. You just have to know that you are searching for. If you are looking just for a normal and not so powerful audio experience, if you just want to listen to some soft or classical music, then you can be pleased with a set of simple stereo speakers. If you want just a little more than that, you can buy a 2.1 audio system. This one has also two stereo speakers, but an extra subwoofer. The subwoofer will bring the low and deep sound frequencies, making the sound more cool and powerful. But if you are looking for an amazing audio experience, then you should definitely get a surround sound system. This one will not only make your music sound powerful, with all the sound ranges (highs, mids and lows) but will also bring a new dimension to your movies of video games. Due to the placement of the satellite speakers you can get some cool feelings, for example you can feel like someone attacks you from behind, or like your room vibrates when there is a big explosion in the movie or game.




After you decided what kinds of speakers you want to buy, you can pick the producer. There are many companies that are having a great experience in the audio domain, and some of them are: Creative, Logitech, JBL, Klipsch, Altec Lansing, Bose, Harman Kardon, Boston Acoustic and others.


You can buy speakers from specialized shops but you can also get them directly from the internet. Just pick up your product, place it in the shopping cart, and then make the order. The product will be send to your home by mail, and you will pay it online using a credit card or at the post office when it arrives.

An example of a site like this is friskyspeakers.com. The site is specialized in speakers, but it also offers MP3 players, notebook mice, card readers, wireless keyboards, webcams, USB devices and many other accessories for a computer. Among its speakers, one of the most famous products is the Frisby amplified 1000 watts computer speakers. The name may seem really interesting, and you might say “Wow! It has 1000 watts!”. But this is not quite true. We’ll talk more about this later in the article. First we should mention that this is a 2.1 audio system, that means it has 2 small speakers and a subwoofer. As you can notice, the design is pretty cool, very simple and also elegant.

They come in a black color, with a cool blue LED on the volume button. The subwoofer is made out of wood with a built-in port tube and 4” driver and will deliver some nic and deep bass, making your music sound much better. The design is really simple, and compact, making it easy to use and to place, even on a very crowded desk. The volume control button is really big and easy to use. The system can also be connected to other sources rather than your computer, such as laptops, MP3 or CD players and other external digital audio devices.


When hearing its name (Frisby amplified 1000 watts computer speakers) you might think that these are really powerful speakers with a power of 1.000 watts. Actually the real name is Frisby BS – S810 and the power of 1.000 watts is the PMPO power. This means that this is the (peak music power output) power used by the speakers when they are connected with the TV or audio components. The power used when the speakers are connected to a computer is the RMS power. And the RMS power (root mean square value, or the effective value of net power) for this system is system is of just 20 watts. That means it is not really powerful to rock the house, but it is pretty good for a system of this dimensions. It can be successfully used in a small apartment room.


Both of the speakers are magnetically shielded, this means they can be used closed to the monitor or TV, without interfering with them. The speakers are very easy to install. They won’t need any drivers and will be recognized by your Windows because of the Plug and Play technology. Here are some of the technical details of these speakers: the signal to noise ratio has a value of 65 dB, the frequency response is 60 Hz – 20 kHz and the input sensitivity is 400 mV. The input impedance is 4 ohm and like we said the power is 20 Watts RMS and 1.000 watts PMPO. Like we said the speakers are small and compact and here are the dimension for the subwoofer: 4.7 ” width, 4.9 ” depth and 7.1 ” height. The satellite speakers are having just 3.5 “ width, 3.1 “ depth and 3.5 “ height.

We forget to mention that the price is very low, and they cost just about 30 dollars. So even if they are not as powerful as you think, they are really good speakers for this very low price. You can’t expect for more at just 30 dollars.


The users reviews about these speakers are not so good, but they aren’t so bad either. The average rating is 3 out of 5 stars. Some of the users are saying that they are pretty good speakers, and others are saying that the sound has a lot of distortion at high volumes. But the thing that most of them are saying is that the speakers are actually much more smaller than the dimensions said by the producer. So if you are looking for some really small speakers, you can choose these ones. :)

    I have been using the Frisby FS-5030 system for over two years and have been very satisfied. I recently did and article on it as well as blogging about other speakers systems in the surround system field.
