You know, I was just thinking about it. It surely has been a while since we reviewed a commercial speaker set here at Guru3D.com. I mean, in the PC oriented market there's pretty much Creative Labs, Bose, Klipsch and Logitech dominating in the EU and addressing that market with the more high-end gear. Of course there are plenty of others like Hercules, Trust Philips and some others but yeah predominantly it's Logitech and Creative Labs here.
Now that's an indicator of either how difficult it to address that channel segment. I mean less people buy the kind of gear like shown today, then again... the somewhat audio aficionado's happily invest in a good quality speaker set.
As such Corsair came to us with the news that they released the SP2500 speaker set. Nothing fancy in terms of multi-channel speakers, nope... simply two quality speakers and a subwoofer. The initial price tag however was an indicator that Corsair (as they always do) deliver a quality product. That initial price tag was above 250 EUR... well, for that money, you better have something good to offer we say.
Well, that definitely is what Corsair is trying to accomplish, quality audio, after a little browsing we spotted the Corsair Gaming Audio SP2500 speaker set for as low as 178 EUR, and though that's still a lot of money it certainly offer you one of the best speaker kits we have heard in a while.
Armed with a phat sub, two satellite speakers and a very dandy LCD control DSP unit we'll today have a look at that Corsair Gaming Audio SP2500 speaker kit. It definitely surprised us away in terms of audio quality.

We review a new chassis from Corsair, it Obsidian 350D. It is the mini-me version of the new Obsidian 900D chassis. Not mid, not full, mini and this intended for small form factor PCs. Now the product might be tagged as mini, the details and features however are grand. Armed with a price much better then the 900D this might be the product a lot of you are on the lookout for.
Corsair Voyager Air review
We review the Voyager Air, it is a portable storage unit allows you to connect it towards USB 3.0 and Ethernet, but it also includes WIFI support and it actually comes on a 100 GB HDD model as well. This great looking device might just be what the doctor to move or stream your content from.
Corsair Obsidian 900D review
We test and review the all new Corsair Obsidian 900D chassis. Not, mid, not full heck, this is a super tower. Probably one of the biggest products you have seen to date. It is highly configurable has hidden options in every corner and a craftsmanship that will stun you.
Corsair H90 review
A test and review the Corsair H90 liquid cooler. The Hydro Series H90 is Corsairs first 140mm Liquid Cooling solution that is bound to draw some impressive heat from your processor.
