    these speakers need 5V 2A power, and you plugged them into a macbook usb! USB-2.0 is 5V-0.5A, and for USB-3.0 it is 5V-0.9A And you didn't say about gain, did you put it on hi?

    • @MrWirelesscaller
      @MrWirelesscaller ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Agreed, it seems mac users tend to fall short on the far ends of tech spectrum, either they seem to know their stuff or they don't... in this case we have a reviewer who doesn't know gear, what makes good gear, nor how to get the most of the gear. Even through the video recording process you can hear how thin the sound was due to the sub being starved because he choked it out by limiting it's power intake due to the limitation of the usb port's output. He needs to get a power brick from phone that's rated at least 2A (there are also 2.4A powered ones as well) as you said so it gets at least 10 watts vs the 2.5 watts he fed it. My advice to people is avoid usb power speakers if they intend to power it from the port of their laptop.

    I'm still using my SBS380 for about 15 years, I bought them around 2008, which aged great, but now they are a little bit damaged and having some trouble with connection. Are pebble plus a good replacement for 2.1 system, which is the best option for me, to stay longer with creative company?

      You can feel your desk shake. It's nothing insane they're low wattage so keep your expectations realistic. If you use a fast charger so they can take more power, the bass is much better.

      @ritsukafujimaru9162 they're good really impressed for something so damn small. And the bass that tiny base pumps isn't to bad either. I'm not truely sure if it's louder or just as loud as a let's say 50 dollar surround sound but I would say buy it if u don't like it send it back no questions asked through Amazon. I don't use it for a main tv in the living room I use it for my monitor in my room that doesn't have speakers so these come in handy bigtime for gaming on it or watching something there if I didn't wanna be on the big screen in my living room

    • @robertlangdon494
      @robertlangdon494 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      But I am a little bit conflicted when it comes to the power of the respective models. The pros are rated at 30w rms (with usb pd) , and the plus are rated at 8w rms
      Where does the extra power in the pros go?
      Since the plus supposedly has better bass
      Also I would assume that the plus version has better clarity in the mids and highs because they have a separate high pass filter and driver,
      instead of cramming everything into one driver like the pro
      Sorry for the lengthy questions, but I really tried to find a proper comparison between these two to no avail, because I'm trying to get one of them as soon as possible, and their price are about similar where I'm from.

    Getting Bose Companion series or Klipsch thx 2.1 system is such a better idea. The subwoofer on either of those systems is extraordinarily more capable. Both sell for pennies on the used market. I do like the pebble speakers but that bass unit is not good.

Why am I watching this I was laughing at how small the sub was and I was like it's a sub it has to have more airspace to sound good it's no way with that little power and no airspace I forgot the law but if you either need a ton of power for that tiny size or if you keep that power you need a HUGE box and that still won't really do THAT sub much and then I saw tech in your name and thought to click it idk lmaooo I'm weird
