Budget
Before you do anything else, consider how much you’re willing to spend on new PC speakers. Good value speakers can deliver decent sound, but if you want a more premium sound with stronger bass and better clarity, you’ll want to spend $200 or more.
Mate
Larger speakers generally sound better, but not everyone has room for larger speakers, especially if you plan to place the speakers on either side of a monitor or even your laptop.
Subwoofer or no subwoofer?
PC speakers with a subwoofer typically deliver more bass, but you’ll need a place to place the subwoofer.
Connectivity
Some of the desktop speakers on this list have analog connectivity, and many offer a digital connection so you can plug them directly into a computer with a USB cable. Some speakers offer Bluetooth connectivity, which makes it easy to pair them with all of your devices, including tablets and smartphones. As you might expect, more robust connectivity options often come with a higher cost, but you can also find reasonably priced PC speakers that offer good connectivity features.
Surround sound?
Most of the speakers on this list consist of two separate active speakers connected by a speaker cable, sometimes with a subwoofer thrown into the mix. They deliver true stereo sound, but you can also buy PC speakers that have multiple speakers for a surround sound setup. We’ve focused primarily on stereo PC speaker setups.
RETURN POLICY
It’s a good idea to purchase your speakers from a store that has a good return policy, in case the speakers don’t meet your expectations.
