I have these speakers my self and I'm telling you right now they are amazing. The bass on these things are crazy and if you crank these things to max volume you could probably hear it a mile away. One thing however is the annoying bright light when turned on which is really annoying if your going to be having this on your desk most of the time.
@@josuedias6860 it's not the best bass in the world but it will get the job done. If you are looking for high quality bass you might need to look at more expensive options.
There is a passive radiator, yes. I can only go by my own personal experience and for me this sounds great for the money (it's under £50 at the end of the day).
If you double tap the volume ( + ) or ( - ) it will skip the song forward or backward while connected to bluetooth on platforms like Spotify or Pandora.
Thx for the video. Is the led always on or can it be disabled? Also, does the speaker automatically turn off when plugged in to the power and if yes can this be disabled so it is always on?
Great review, i am about to probably go tomorrow to my local PC shop and get this exact speaker. My question is, are you still using your speaker? How is the battery life after couple of years? My last Bluetooth speaker, some no name brand, just recently died out, and it can't even hold a charge any more. I am planing to use this Bluetooth speaker as my primary sound.
@@DaveWestMedia To be honest I think the problem is with my macbook's Bluetooth as I don't face the same issues when connecting with my phone's Bluetooth.
Hi there. Do you mean with a multi channel soundcard? If so, then I can't see why not. This would be perfect for that kind of application. Yes, it would need to be connected to a power supply but if it's near a PC a spare USB socket will do the trick as this is enough to power it 👍
I don't believe it has USB audio pass through, only a USB port for playing portable USB devices and USB sticks. It will work with the aux input though for sure 👍
For general listening it gets a solid 8, but don't buy this if you like to really push the volume, it's not that kind of speaker. Best bet would be a Soundcore speaker for loud music. They have better amps and stronger speaker drivers 👍
I bought this for my desktop today and it sounds great with the 3.5 mil cable but when using blutooth, it goes very quiet even with the speaker turned up and the PC volume turned up. Everytime I turn up the speaker with the volume button on the side and then try to do the same with the PC volume, the speaker goes really quiet and you can harldy hear anything even with the PC volume at 50%. This does not happen with the 3.5 aux in.
Weird. I remember having a similar issue but can't recall how I fixed it. My son has the speaker now but I'll check tomorrow and get back to you if that's okay?
I assume you have Windows 10 in this reply. When you open the sound icon in the lower right corner of your screen you will only see one speakers volume. You might be changing the volume for another speaker than the bluetooth connection. You can see your other speakers by clicking the arrow up button on the right side of the volume slider menu. If you see your bluetooth speaker there, try raising the volume. Good luck!
Hello! I have a question about this product. I have connected it via bluetooth and works ok, however, it is making a weird clicking/popping noise when something audio is about to start and when i pause the music for exaple it is making another little beep noise and about 3-4 seconds after that the popping noise it stops. Is that normal? Because i tested another soundbar in the BT connection i did not notice that issue.
Yes. Something like this would be ideal amzn.to/3fm1a9Q Although do bare in mind it also comes with a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable so you can do audio out from your PC direct to the speaker 👍
I just bought this speaker for my new computer set up and I can't seem to figure out how to make it work properly? Really hopiong someone here has an idea or feedback to make this work as I can't return this speaker, but so far using my monitor speakers or headset is vastly better quality/ I don't really know how to describe it, but either it's damaged, or somehow I'm doing something wrong but it makes an annoying static crackling noise whenever it's being used to play anything. When I have the speaker turned on, it doesn't work unless plugged in to my audio out port on my desktop, even if I select it as the device to use for sound (maybe I'm just not properly pushing the buttons? But I've had it say it's calibrating so idk) instead of the speakers on my monitor. Once it's plugged in, however, without fail, it will constantly make a low static humming noise that totally ruins the audio quality and was definitely not present in your video, so I know it's not as it should be. Is there like a special way to set it up to make it work, or should I assume the one I bought is just broken and trash worthy? I literally just bought and set up a brand new computer and everything, so I am quite sad that my speakers don't work...or work but with a constant background static and humming and crackling, which is notably worse when not playing audio, so I unplug it when I'm done watching something, but it'd be nice for it to not have that at all. Help plz T.T
The one you're referring to is the Creative Stage which is a separate product with a slightly different soundbar design (just had two drivers instead of the two drivers and mid woofer). I've got one of those and without the sub it's fine for speech driven content but falls short slightly without the sub. Switch on the sub and it's very good indeed for the price! There's a new Creative Stage V2 on the way which is apparently even better. Thanks for watching the video 👍
Does anyone know how to disassemble the speaker? I know you have to remove the front mesh first but for the life of me I can't figure out how to remove it (non-destructively).
U did an EXCELLENT job on reviewing the speaker.I subscribed to your channel as a result.There is one uncertainly.How is it powered? Is it powered by the computer?
Thanks for the lovely feedback! It's powered by its own built in battery which can be recharged via USB. You can leave it plugged in of course, but I wouldn't recommend it to ensure the battery is preserved 👍 I appreciate the sub, thank you
Hello Dave,I just bought the soundbar few days ago and I just came to the point to charge it.I use this bar for my gaming pc and the sound is amazing,although when the battery died,and tried to use it and also charge it at the same time from the back USB port of my pc,it was making a weird static noise,I pulled the volume down of the soundbar and I just raised my monitor’s and it’s pretty ok.I see there is the red light on the back showing that it’s being charged,is there any way to know when it’s fully charged? Like is the light going away?
Yes, the light will go off when it's finished charging. In regards to the static, bear in mind this is made predominantly of plastic so it may be picking up electrical interference from other devices around you. Try it in another area of the house where there's no interference and this should give you an idea if it's the speaker itself or something else causing the issue 👍
@@DaveWestMedia I actually noticed that when it’s charging the light behind is red,and when it’s fully charged ,it runs green.As for the static noise,well I have the soundbar under and between my two PC monitors and a few inches away from my PC Box so I don’t know if it’s because of that
@@Clyne69 Personally,as you can see from my comment,I own this sound at since 8 months now.To be honest and fair it has a pretty solid and loud sound,in terms of gaming though,because I also mainly use it for gaming,it lacks battery life.I find mine having a battery life from 5 up to 6 hours and something that bothers me is 1) that when I want to charge it and keep using it,I plug it on a USB port on the back of my PC box because the usb cable is not long enough so someone might have a problem to charge it in case there’s not a charging option close to it.2) When is being charged and being used at the same time,I have to lower the volume of the sound bar a lot and increase the monitor’s/Pc’s volume to max to be able to hear,otherwise whenever I’m charging and using it simultaneously,there’s a static noise all the time and I haven’t found a way to fix it
Hi there, as a general rule for good battery housekeeping - I would leave it expel itself a few times a week to ensure the battery cells don't expand from over charging. The internal circuitry will stop drawing power once full, but obviously there will be a point where the battery dips below 100% for a short period and begin recharging. I would imagine the battery is easy to replace but best to follow the above to ensure the speaker and battery last as long as possible 👍
Haven't tried the V3 I'm sorry but I know that you'll get better stereo separation from the Pebble V3's for sure. I'm due to get some V3's to review though so I will let you know 👍
@@DaveWestMedia i have a problem. I connect it with smart tv, after 5' it closed. I tray to open it...but i couldn't. After 30' i tray again and its ok. After 5' it closed again...There is no manual
Takes around an hour when the battery is fully expelled - the LED light turns green once it's fully charged. It's not a big battery so doesn't take too long. You can also charge while playing as well 👍
How does it compare to the creative T40 ii? Im thinking of getting this to replace them as im running out of room for them on my desk with all the screens!
The T40ii have better stereo separation as they're standalone, and I find the bass on those to a bit tighter and better controlled - but you really can't go wrong with this. The Creative Stage is also a very good option as that comes with a separate subwoofer 👍
It has 5w per channel output and as it's wider than most portable speakers, the stereo effect is very good. It's more than capable of filling a small to medium sized room with sound 👍
I no longer have the Stage Air nor can I access items like the Mi Soundbar as I'm based in the UK and they charge import duty on China items. Sorry dude 😢
Flip 4 has better bass and is more portable. They're slightly different products in the fact that the Flip 4 is a kind of use anywhere speaker, whereas this is primarily for use as a desk speaker or for a small room TV 👍 The Creative has a more open sound with better stereo separation.
I just figured out that it has a rechargeable battery inside, is that right? But if I connect the DC (micro-USB) to my pc (USB), do I have to take it out once and a while for good battery maintenance?
That's correct Toni 👍 the battery lasts a good while at moderate volume but just charging when you need and letting the battery expel properly for good charging habits is a good thing to do
@@DaveWestMedia yeah, all basses. Mids and highs are all covered by a droning sound. I returned mine right away. Imo if you cannot deliver good sound all around better give a flatter profile
I'm with you now. They must have altered the sound profile then as mine is pretty flat - what a shame you didn't have a good experience..sorry to hear that ☹️

Thanks mate, i was at micro center in US and so them and didn't want to waste money on something i was going to regret.
If you double tap the volume ( + ) or ( - ) it will skip the song forward or backward while connected to bluetooth on platforms like Spotify or Pandora.
Thanks for making such a thorough video covering all of the Creative Stage sound bar features!
Very good review, especially the examples of sound.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed this 👍

I don't believe it has USB audio pass through, only a USB port for playing portable USB devices and USB sticks. It will work with the aux input though for sure 👍
Will a RCA to 3.5mm male audio cable work for connecting the Creative Stage Air to a TV (no aux - just the red/white/yellow ports)?
Yes, white/red RCA tv output to 3.5mm Aux input.

Appreciate the kind words, thank you 🙌♥️
Fantastic review man, really well done!
May not be the best one out there but for the price it looks like a pretty good option!
Hey Steve! Thanks for stopping by fella! An absolute steal for the price 😁👍
If we use this in aux cable for the whole time still do we need to charge ?
Yes the battery will run down eventually using the aux in. But you can run passively using the USB cable 👍
Great review thx and you follow up on posted questions.
Thanks very much, appreciate you watching the video 🙌🙌
If connect this speaker to my usb hub monitor via supplied usb cable will it work just with usb cable or I have to connect aux wire also?
The USB will only supply power, you'll need to connect with aux to get audio as well 👍
Ordered this for my bedroom TV. Hope it's better than the TV Speakers.
It'll be a big improvement for sure, great speaker for the money 👍
Does the audio lag/ off sync with video when connected via Bluetooth?
Yes, but it's not excessive to be fair.
Can you operate the soundbar when charging? I am thinking of using this as primary speaker for my new Mac mini.
Yes you can just plug it in via USB and use it as normal 👍

Takes around an hour when the battery is fully expelled - the LED light turns green once it's fully charged. It's not a big battery so doesn't take too long. You can also charge while playing as well 👍
