Best Speaker under $50 If you're looking for speakers for your PC under $50, you can never go wrong with what creative has to offer under $50. I've been using Inspire M4500 4:1 speakers for 9 years. The tight and well controlled bass is just amazing. Yes, after using 6/7 years, it started to sound a bit muffled and distorted at Full volume and the TRS jack has started to fail. But I'm super impressed by the performance and I don't think I could do any better than creative for the price.

Do not EVER buy direct from Creative Labs I recently ordered an audio related bluetooth dongle from Creative Labs. It took several days to arrive. It didn't work as advertised on their site and caused compatibility issues with my non-audio bluetooth devices. Upon attempting to return it, I was told that this was not considered a device issue and that any return would be on my dime. When I complained about this (there was clearly an issue with device compatibility despite what their site says) I was told "We will take this as a feedback. Rest assured that all the feedback are looked into as we strive to improve our customer's experience with us. Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience caused." So I had to pay $11 to return a $39.00 item. My thoughts: Creative doesn't stand behind their products, doesn't care about customers and their customer service is a joke. This is what I get for buying direct instead of going through Amazon.

Trust pilot mixup? Writting this review as after spending time reading all the poor reviews I realised that a lot of them are probably targeted at a different company... I cannot recall a time when creative was selling dog beds etc... Think there's been some mix up.. Btw have ordered a headset from them and will revise the review if anything goes wrong but I don't see why it would...

Almost a month, my shipment is missing! It has been more than a month since I ordered and still my shipment is missing. Unacceptable customer service! They provided a wrong tracking number, then they gave me the correct one but it's still missing! I am not going to buy anything else again from them. Terrible experience..

Terrible service I've had a faulty soundcard (AE7) for a month now and arranging a return is impossible - they just don't want to help. I've tried every step in trying to resolve the technical issue but I know faulty hardware when I hear/see it. I would seriously consider buying elsewhere as the support is zero. I have now had to bring Paypal in to help me despite Creative having a 30 day returns policy.
