ION’s Desk Rocker USB Speakers-PC

RCA, 1/8th inch, and USB input jacks that let you double these bookshelf-sitters into recording devices. Not surprisingly, they found the Desk Rockers do a decent job acting as a jack of all trades (so to speak), but aren’t particularly stellar options for any one usage: audiophiles will want better sound reproduction, gamers will want a surround option, musicians will need more types of inputs (and possibly better D/A converters, if CNET’s statement about higher volume distortion is any indication), etc. However, for anyone getting started in those areas, investing $100 as a down payment towards developing a hobby doesn’t seem like too much to ask.
