DELL AC511M 2.0 Channel 2.5W Soundbar Speaker Black - Soundbar (2.0 Channel, 2.5W, 2.5W, Wire, 406mm, 49mm)

Listened to music via macbook built-in speakers, however finally decided to get something better without need to clutter the desk. And this one fit well! While it was hard to find out whether it works well with Dell U2721DE monitor, it worked. Just single USB connection - and you are on. Didn't test microphone so far, barely need it. Great thing!

Good value for money speakers. Yes you can get better quality, but you will also need to pay a lot more too. Very happy with my purchase.

I got this soundbar for my office, to use with a Dell monitor so that I could have some background music when working, or for a little light gaming when using my own laptop rather than the work one. The laptop connects to the monitor using a USB C cable (convenient when swapping between work and personal devices). This soundbar fits nicely on the stand of my Dell P2720DC, although I gather from reviews I have seen that this may not be the case for older monitors (and if you are reading this in the future, hi!, I would check this as well). Sound quality is okay, and obviously not as good as a set of decent stereo speakers. For reference, sound for this can be via USB or via a headphone jack. I use USB, from a laptop that connects to the monitor by USB C for video and audio. As far as I can tell, this cannot pick up sound from a laptop, or other device, connection via HDMI, at least not from a Dell monitor. There are some threads on the Dell support pages about this. There are workarounds however - I have managed to get audio from a Nintendo Switch by plugging the USB connection from the soundbar to the external usb port on the Switch docking bar, and that seems to work fine.

This soundbar has a good quality sound, reasonable power, and makes the desk really tidy with no trailing leads. It is quite pricey but is worth the money as it integrates well with the pc sound and the microphone works well.

The sound quality is great and looks great. It’s seamlessly connects to my laptop but I find that sometimes it randomly disconnects and uses the sound output from the monitor instead. The build quality and functionality is good but not value for money in my opinion. It is small enough to fit under your screen.

The sound control knob is a little difficult to use but it doesn't matter as its easily done using the 'puter.

I absolutely love this speaker for a number of reasons. 1 - It looks great. 2 - Takes up literally Zero Desk space 3 - Awesome build quality 4 - Instant connection 5 - No software 6 - Great sound quality 7- Functionality is 100% There’s nothing not to love about this!!!!

Daughter uses this on her dell monitor, over the moon with the quality of the sound
