GigaWorks T40 Series II

Creative impressed many people with its first generation Gigaworks T40 speakers so these new versions had a lot to live up to. Thankfully, the T40 Series IIs haven't just succeeded in maintaining that reputation; they've actually gone one step further and surpassed their predecessors. Sure, they're a bit big and you can certainly get better sounding speakers if you're willing to splash the cash but for their price these are without equal.

GigaWorks T40 Series II

The Gigaworks T40 Series II is truly a value for money purchase. The quality of sound that comes out of these speakers are amazing. Highly recommended for people who listen to music or play games. I was pleased to hear the directional sound of my enemies approaching on my front/left/right/behind clearly from these speakers. Gaming has taken on a new meaning for me. Also when listen to the band play, being able to hear and focus on the distinct sounds of each different instruments with their tones and hues was certainly welcome. Best buy ever!

I was shopping around for a replacement for my old Creative T3130 which has served me well for the past 5 years and the Gigaworks caught my eye. Since the T3130 was a 2.1 setup, I was initially a little sceptical about the bass performance of the Gigaworks T40 Series II as it does not come with a dedicated woofer. However the Gigaworks did not disappoint as the BasXPorts worked like a charm, providing deep and well-rounded bass. The midrange performance is exceptional and listening to music on the T40 Series II is always a treat. I am especially happy with the numerous connectivity options as I can choose to connect my headphones or portable media devices conveniently from the front. And if I ever get a PS4 in the future, the Gigaworks T40 Seires II also has me covered with the included dual RCA-to-stereo adaptor. In all, the Creative Gigaworks T40 Series II is a solid piece of engineering and I am very satisfied with my speakers upgrade. Highly recommended!
