Logitech AudioHub
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "HARDWARE" @ 08:00 PM
"Logitech is filling a questionable "gap" in the world of USB peripherals today with its new AudioHub device. The 2.1 unit parks itself behind your laptop and pokes out a pair adjustable satellite speakers on each side while the subwoofer hides in the back. There's also a three port USB hub built in, no doubt to make up for the fact that the AudioHub is blocking most of your connections in the back of your laptop. You can of course mute the speakers while continuing to power your USB devices, but that's about all for functionality -- other than a bit of cable management in the back. AudioHub does seem like a decent "dock" solution for most casual users, and the $100 price isn't horrible, but we're not expecting this guy to revolutionize the cheesy USB gadget industry just yet."
If you don't like wires running to and fro, this look like this would be OK for an all-in-one speaker unit. Personally, I like setting the sub a little further away.
