Creative Pebble 2.0 USB-Powered Desktop Speakers with Far-Field Drivers and Passive Radiators for PCs and Laptops (White)

I’m genuinely impressed with the Creative Pebble 2.0 speakers. For such a compact and affordable set, they deliver clear, rich audio that easily beats the built-in speakers on any laptop or monitor. The far-field drivers project sound beautifully across my desk, and the passive radiators give the bass a noticeable boost without any distortion. Setup couldn’t be simpler, just plug them into a USB port, connect the audio jack, and you’re done. No extra power cable, no fuss. I also love the minimalist white design; it looks clean and modern on my desk and doesn’t take up much space. These speakers are perfect for everyday use. Such as music, videos, meetings, and even light gaming. If you want an inexpensive upgrade that still feels high-quality, the Creative Pebble 2.0 is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

Sound good with pc at a good price. They arent super loud and bass isnt real strong but that shouldnt be expected from a little set of pc speakers. They do sound good and they arent expensive so if thats what you are looking for then buy em, they will satisfy. They seem to be good quality, connect fast and easy, look good and light weight. rubber on the bottom keeps them in place and passive radiator and speaker setup is good sounding overall. They take a few min at med volume to break in and then the sound is nice!

These are a really solid set of speakers, that look great and have good range. They are absolutely perfect for the majority of my own use cases — meetings and courses predominantly. They sound very good and very clear for speech. They are also good in terms of volume, and have no significant distortion at higher volumes, which you might usually expect from budget speakers. I don’t think you will be thrilled with these if you want a rich music or movie watching experience, however. The speakers have reasonable range, but do not expect much bass or true-to-life sound. The look of these, however, is really the standout feature. They look fantastic, and I’ve gotten several compliments already. If you are aesthetically minded, you really will love these. On balance, I’m really happy with these. The price point and features are spot on, and I would recommend these for folks wanting speakers for primarily business or productivity needs — where clear speech is important.

When I replaced my monitor my new one didn’t come with internal speakers, only a headphone jack. I am accustomed to using airpods to monitor sound when I am editing and I’ve gotten into the habit of using them whenever I listen to anything on my computer, which actually other than editing isn’t very often. But a lot of websites are making increased use of videos which means to listen to them having a set of old fashioned speakers sounded like a good idea. I didn’t want (or need) super expensive speakers just to listen to a news clip or a social media clip so I started searching for a pair of small, attractive computer speakers and was dismayed that most of the cheap one were unattractive and barely above using a tin can in terms of sound quality. I stumbled on these hidden several pages in during my search, which is a shame because Creative practically invented the first small cheap computer speakers. I bought these more on how they look than anything else and had very low expectations how they would sound for a price well under twenty bucks. When they arrived I was impressed. The presentation was typical of Creative Labs, which is to say top notch. The documentation is superior and the look and feel is much better than expected. SOUND QUALITY Be realistic, you can’t reinvent physics and there is only so much you can do with a speaker this small. Typical of this company, rather than try to dazzle with phony equalizations that have an initial wow factor then sound tiresome and hard to listen to they have opted to have these sound natural for the content that comes out of most computers. That’s something that’s not easy to explain but don’t expect them to rock the room with bass or break glass with sizzling highs. Instead they just “sound good” and personally I am very happy with that sound. Part of that equation is they understand that the typical user of this pair will be sitting only 2-3 feet from the speakers, that required an entirely different approach to how they sound compared to speakers that are at the other end of a room. I didn’t believe my ears, I can’t imagine them sounding any better. HINTS 1. Per Creative not all computers have enough juice to power these speakers to their full volume potential. They suggest, and I agree, that if you can, rather than using one of the USB ports on your computer instead plug these into their own dedicated power transformer (the same kind you use to charge your phone or other USB device). For me doing that about doubled the sound volume. 2. Where should you plug the mini audio cable into? Creative is kind of vague on that. With a lot of computers you might have more than one option, for example in my case my computer has both an audio line out jack, an audio headphone jack and an audio jack for headphones on my monitor. The last one is the least desirable because almost all monitors these days are using HDMI connectivity which is probably going to digitize and re-digitize an audio signal several times and try to optimize it for headphone listening. To a slightly lesser degree the headphone jack on your computer may try to output sound optimized for headphone listening. Your best choice if possible is to use the line level output. These are amplified speakers and they can deal with the kind of output from a line level jack, which is likely the purest and cleanest sound your computer is capable of outputting. Many computers autosense what’s plugged into a jack or will pop up a setup screen to let you choose how to use that jack. It turns out my computer (an HP workstation) offers a very sophisticated setup to fine-tune the speaker output even better than a graphic equalizer. The difference between using my monitor’s headphone jack and my computer line level jack was night and day, they made these speakers perform to their absolute fullest potential. 3. That soft springy disk on the back of the speaker is called a passive radiator. In simple terms what it does is to act as a non-powered loudspeaker by capturing the vibrations of the actual speaker and replicating them in synchronous harmony and generally improving the bass performance. You can utilize these passive radiators to their full potential by experimenting a little how far away you place the back of the speaker from the wall behind your desk (if your desk is free-standing this doesn’t apply). While there isn’t a hard and fast best solution, I’ve found that with these a distance of about 8-10 inches sounds the best to me. By the way, the passive radiators are delicate and can be ruined if pressed on too hard or the rubber ring has a hole poked into it. Keep your fingers away from that area. ONE SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENT Creative Labs is a very old and successful company and I am hardly qualified to tell them what to do, but there is one small thing they overlooked, possibly because no one has ever told them about it. It’s not major and certainly not a dealbreaker but it could have been designed slightly better. The issue is that the speaker is a sphere and the volume control is mounted at the lower lip of a crater on the face of it below the loudspeaker. When I put my fingers around the volume control to adjust it gravity causes the sphere to slightly tilt over toward the front, it has to because of the placement and angle of the volume control. Aesthetically I can’t think of a better location for the control, it looks beautiful where it is, and the current location is absolutely easy to reach for and adjust and I wouldn’t want to change either of those things. If I were in their design studio I would probably choose to counterbalance that tendency to tilt forward by putting a little weight inside toward the rear of the base, I don’t think it would require much. YES NO MAYBE I don’t consider tendency to tilt a flaw, just a minor issue. Moving beyond that these are beautiful, they sound great, they are well-made and they cost a fraction of what they’re worth when compared to the no-name junk in the same price category. When the true meaning of five stars is (and should be) a product that is best in class and near flawless in execution, these earn that rating hands down.

The Creative Pebble 2.0 USB-Powered Desktop Speakers have been a fantastic addition to my workspace. Despite their compact size, the sound is surprisingly full and clear, with crisp highs and balanced mids that make music, podcasts, and video calls enjoyable. The setup is simple—just plug into USB and audio jack, and they’re ready to go. I appreciate the accessible design, with a convenient volume knob on the front and the subtle 45-degree angle that projects sound directly toward me. These speakers are perfect for anyone who wants high-quality sound without taking up too much desk space. They’re reliable, easy to use, and deliver impressive performance for the price. I’d highly recommend them to students, professionals, or anyone looking to upgrade their desktop audio experience.

So good I purchased 3 already. The sound quality is great for the price, the black speakers look sleek and unobtrusive, and my computers connected to them easily. You do have to make sure you have an available USB 2.0 port available, and a green audio-in jack as well. The lighting is minimal when on (just the green power light), so if you want to reduce visual clutter, this is a good buy.

Los compré hace casi dos años, siguen funcionando perfectamente, se escuchan muy bien y más teniendo en cuenta su precio, además tienen una estética muy bonita. Una de las mejores compras.

Ich habe die Lautsprecher jetzt erst seit zwei Tage in Benutzung und bin jetzt schon begeistert vom Klag und vom ( auch wenn es nicht viel ist ) sauberen Bass. Ich habe sie an meinem PC angeschlossen, um zwischendurch mal etwas Musik zu hören, vorher waren es Lautsprecher im Preisbereich unter 10€ und so haben sie auch geklungen, hat mir jedoch ausgereicht, dafür haben sie dann aber auch 5 Jahre gehalten ( Amazon Basic ). Die Marke Creative ist mir von früher ( aus meiner Jugend die Soundkartenspezialisten überhaupt ) ein Begriff und daher habe ich nicht lange gebraucht, um sie mal zu bestellen, ich dachte mir halt "was soll schon schief gehen", war halt früher auch eine super Marke, nach meiner Bestellung durchbrach die Realität meine Euphorie und dann kam der Tag. als sie zugestellt wurden, als erstes direkt angeschlossen und die ersten Töne eine Erleichterung, Creative steht scheinbar immer noch zu ihrem Namen, auch wenn die Geschichte sich hinter der Firma verändert hat. Jetzt zu Sound, wie schon erwähnt bin ich extrem begeistert, denn dafür dass sie so günstig sind, ist die Tonqualität der Wahnsinn, es passt einfach alles, egal ob höhen, mitten oder auch Tiefen. Sie brauchen einen kleinen Moment, um dann richtig los zu legen und dann geht es schön vorwärts. Natürlich sollte man von der Größe nicht zu viel verlangen, wobei sie schon mehr raus geben, wie ich es erwartet habe. Das Video wie schon erwähnt am Tag 2 entstanden, heißt also, dass sie noch nicht richtig eingespielt sind und sich der Ton noch verändern kann, meist zum positiven. Die Größe entspricht in etwa einer Männlichen Faust und vom Gewicht merkt man, dass es reiner Kunststoff ist, dafür finden sie auf jeden Schreibtisch Platz. Meine klare Kaufempfehlung gibt es für die beiden definitiv, denn ( ich kann es nicht oft genug sagen ) sie hauen mehr raus, als man von den keinen Plastikbombern erwartet. Ich hoffe sehr, dass meine Rezension hilfreich war und bei der Kaufentscheidung mitgeholfen hat.
