In this video, I am going to be highlighting 5 of the best gaming speakers in 2021. To
give you a good idea of just what exactly your cash can get you, I have selected those
I feel represent the best on the market, at their respective retail prices.
If you could get one of these for free, which one would it be, and why? Let me know in the
comments! First on the list, for gamers who want excellent
sound, but also prefer to complement their battle stations with extra RGB lighting, the
Logitech G560 Lightsync - Best RGB It’s all well and good to have an RGB-enabled
mouse or headset or keyboard, but aside from a few gimmicks like “imitating the sirens
in Grand Theft Auto,” it’s still more about aesthetics than functionality.
Logitech’s G560 changes that, using RGB LEDs in a way that feels transformative. If
only the effect were paired with slightly better speakers.
The G560 features six high-powered RGB LEDs per speaker: four facing the rear and two
for the front. At maximum brightness, they can be a little distracting in a dark room,
but a nifty button at the top of the right speaker lets you tone it down or turn them
off completely. A pleasant rainbow color cycle works as the default mode but jumping into
Logitech Gaming Software is when the magic happens.
The software allows you to choose between two control modes for the speakers. Hardware
control ditches the software and uses Bluetooth or AUX input devices for lighting. You get
the same rainbow color cycle that also acts as an audio visualizer that flashes and brightens
to the beat of the music being played. The G560 provided rich, immersive sound, regardless
of the genre. Whether I used DTS 7.1 surround sound (with a preset gaming EQ profile) or
standard stereo, the audio broadcast the full range of everything I needed to hear: voice
work, sound effects, and music. Because the G560 supports surround sound, you can even
position your speakers a little creatively and feel like a whole game is taking place
right around your ears. The sound from the two circular speakers is
comparable to what you'd hear on a high-end headset. However, if you've never gamed with
a subwoofer before, it's difficult to explain just how much of a difference it makes. You
don't simply hear bass music and explosions; you feel them in your gut and, depending on
where the woofer is located, maybe even in your feet and legs.
Next on the list, Best for Size, we have the Razer Nommo Chroma
The Nommo Chroma speakers definitely make a visual impact. The all-black tubular speakers
sit on 4-inch struts that extend out of a circular base. Around the edge of the base
is a programmable LED light ring – hence the Chroma part of the name. Each speaker
has a 3-inch woven glass fiber full-range driver – meaning all possible frequencies
are reproduced by these drivers only. The Razer Nommo Chroma is absolutely dripping
with Razer aesthetic. The speakers themselves have that matte black plastic finish that
we’ve seen so many times on Razer’s mice, keyboards and Bluetooth speakers, and that’s
not even mentioning the RGB lighting that pulses underneath the speakers’ stands - a
fun, quirky addition that will undoubtedly be hated and loved in equal measure by the
gaming community. The light show, which can be controlled via
the Razer Synapse app (a familiar sight for those of you that use Razer mice and keyboards),
is actually a surprisingly neat addition in my opinion.
In Nommo Chroma’s music section, considering different types of music applications, Nommo
Chroma also adds a BASS subwoofer control knob. When the bass subwoofer gain is maximized,
the low-frequency performance will be relatively prominent, and the sound will be calm, full,
and explosive. , Brings a full sense of shock. The Nommo Chroma speakers delivered consistently
impressive audio, offering lots of immersion for cinematic titles and clear directionality
for competitive games. They're also quite loud, pumping out more than enough sound to
fill my room. Testing them on overwatch, The hammer of Reinhard sounded extra beefy and
detailed on Razer's speakers. High-pitched noises, such as the slices of Genji's sword,
or lasers sounded quite sharp. Combining style, decent sound quality, and
a useful feature set for a reasonable price, the Razer Nommo Chroma tick all the right
boxes. Next, we have a quite known name, that's been
dominating the industry of speakers for a while now, the Bose Companion 2 Series III
- Best Overall Bose has been a big name in the world of hi-fi
and headphones for decades, but it's less well known for its desktop speakers. But with
all that audio expertise at its fingertips, you would expect it to make some of the best
computer speakers on the market. The Bose Companion 2 Series III is a compact,
affordable system, and with its elegant black design, it should fit most computer setups.
These Bose companion 2 series iii speakers measure about 7.5 by 3.2 by 5.8 inches and
are also both lightweight with a small difference of about 0.5 pounds between them. They come
in the form of an upright rectangular block. They’re also only available in black color,
and with the volume control, headphone jack, and RCA inputs located on the right speaker,
you’re definitely going to be reaching for it a lot more than you will be reaching for
the left one. Bose is always known as the loudest speaker
in class and the Companion 2 is not an exception. With an average sound quality. Because it
doesn’t have a separate subwoofer it does not have a tight bass response. However, it
is strong enough to deliver a wide space of sound. the high-quality sound seems as though
it’s emanating from a larger sound stage than provided by the two Bose speakers – a
feature that I'm sure that you’ll also appreciate. On the gaming front, I booted up Warzone and
the little speakers' strengths in the bass department helped accentuate weapons firing
and the explosions they caused. Best Bluetooth Gaming Speakers, we have the
Logitech Z407 Logitech is a household name when it comes
to affordable computer speakers. Logitech's affordable speakers are known for balancing
solid audio quality with low prices, and they ride that line better than pretty much any
other competitor. The Logitech Z407 Bluetooth computer speakers
come in a matte graphite gray to nearly black color. It seems like a full sound system all
on its own with the inclusion of a downward-firing subwoofer that rumbles as well as two 10-watt
satellite speakers. To give you full control over the volume, bass, and more, the Z407
also has a wireless control dial. What’s great about the two oval-shaped satellite
speakers is they feature a detachable stand, which allows users to angle them as they please.
Sound-wise, these speakers pack a punch as you’d have expected and music listening
is very pleasing to the ears. The audio is also clear. If you are a bass lover, you’ll
love the separate rumble coming from the subwoofer, but don’t expect a room rattling one with
a subwoofer of that size – especially if you put it below your desk. For a study room
or apartment though, it’s perfect, but not room-filling.
Since it boasts plenty of rumbles and produces terrific sound quality that will satisfy most
gamers as well as users looking to consume media – whether that’s music or movies.
And, its added perk of being versatile will benefit every type of user.
And finishing the list, we have the Best For Less, the Redragon GS520 Anvil
They sound great and Look awesome! What more can I say? Ohh they also come at a bargain
price. Design-wise they look quite cool for their
price, The GS520 Anvil RGB speakers are entirely made of hard plastic with a beveled design,
metal mesh grilled, an L-shaped RGB strip, and a chrome plastic accent Redragon logo,
which is glued onto the speaker. The back of the speaker units has a plain matte finish
with a recessed groove around it for styling. The base of the speakers has foam-padded feet.
The right speaker weighs 390 grams and the left speaker weighs 367 grams. The total weight
including the cabling is 758 grams. Each unit houses a 5-watt dynamic speaker driver, which
works well at reproducing treble, midrange, and bass without muddiness or distortion.
Since the Redragon Anvil GS520 comes with RGB lighting, there is a button on the top
of the right speaker that allows you to change the colors between 6 different settings. A
simple press of the button changes the color and again, there’s no special software that’s
needed for the RGB lighting. The sound quality was clear and crisp, even
when turned all the way up, though turning speakers all the way up isn’t something
I normally do and certainly don’t suggest. When listening to music that had a bit of
bass to it, the bass came through the speakers very well. It wasn’t overpowering or under
impressive in any way. The Highs and the Lows were crystal clear either when you game or
listen to music. But don't expect much else after all they
are something that were made to not hurt your bank that much.
