Aiwa UZ US201 USB Speakers Aiwa UZ US201 USB Speakers Bring your PC to life! The unique space saving design of this powerful speaker allows for a convenient fit behind LCD monitors and laptops. Fill the room with the sound of your favorite music, movie or video game with this ultra-compact, top firing omni-directional speaker system. Here's a speaker setup that can be heard but not seen: $150 Aiwa UZ US201 USB One-Point Stereo Speaker System is designed to hide behind an LCD or laptop screen. I tested a preproduction unit of this compact one-piece speaker system and found that while it's a great option for tight spaces, better values exist.
The Aiwa UZ US201 carries the capability to make some fairly decent sound in its small but hefty package (10.5 by 4.1 by 7.6 inches, width by depth by height, and 4.1 pounds). It features three 5-watt drivers arranged in a line on top of the device, plus a front-firing 10-watt subwoofer.
A USB connection provides an easy way to hook the speakers up to a notebook or desktop PC--bypassing your existing audio hardware. Stereo RCA inputs also let you hook the Aiwa UZ US201 directly to your current sound card.
Music sounded crisp and detailed when played at a healthy volume through the Aiwa UZ US201. The top-mounted speakers are set up to create some separation--each speaker plays a different set of the stereo channels--and while the soundstage is very narrow, it is fairly accurate. Movies and games didn't fare quite as well, as they rely more on positional audio, which is hard to create when sound is emitted from one point.
Still, the sound you get from the Aiwa UZ US201 is pretty good. If you have the room, a more traditional 2.1 speaker set with a good subwoofer will give you better bass response and a larger soundstage, but if space is at a premium, you might want to give this system a shot. The compact design and USB connection make it an excellent, if pricey, fit for a small work space where you're docking a notebook.
