Hercules XPS 2.1 60
Released March, 2010
The Pros:Slim, compact speaker design takes up very little desk space. Crisp, clear sound quality that's well-balanced. Bass sounds really tight, can really boom at high settings.
The Cons:Bass adjustment knob is located on the subwoofer, making it a bit hard to reach if you're the type to put your subwoofer under your desk. Poor build quality - feel cheap and plasticky.
The Hercules XPS 2.1 60 is a 2.1 multimedia speaker system. This is similar to the Hercules XPS 2.1 40, but can output a higher total peak power of 120 watts and allows the satellite speakers to sit on the desktop or be mounted on the walls.
