Great Compact Speakers
I originally ordered a soundbar for my computer as the new monitor I purchased does not have any speakers. This issue was that every time I turned on my computer, the speakers made an obnoxious tone that was very loud no matter what volume I had them set to. In addition, I had a very hard time getting them to work via Blue Tooth or 3.5mm jack. Enter these Redragon speakers. Simply plug them into your USB and 3.5mm jack and you are set. They have an on/off button that was what sealed the deal for me. If you are looking for serviceable speakers with good sound, these are certainly worth a try!

Really impressed and still working after 3 years
Really I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a cheap but good speaker that is just overall the best price for any one looking for a casual solution for any environment and itâs really loud so just a warning.

Decent for cheap speakers that look cool
The audio quality honestly isn’t too bad, if you keep it around 40 or lower (in Windows settings, 40/100). Any higher and you start to hear distortion. Music sounded pretty decent, I wasn’t expecting a ton from a pair of $40 stereo speakers with no bass/sub, but I was a bit impressed. This is normally fine with me, as I rarely listen to music or play games with the volume louder than about 34. However;
Unfortunately, the cable between the two speakers is fixed, and short. It’s only about 31″ long – this is not enough length if you like to try and hide your cables behind your monitor, or behind your desk. It’s also not nearly enough length if you have an ultrawide monitor. I have an ultrawide 34″ monitor, and the cable length on these speakers is not enough to have the monitor in between the two speakers. The cable length is not mentioned in the product description. Had I known this, I would not have purchased these speakers. The speakers are also just tall enough that they won’t fit under my monitor, even at my monitor stand’s tallest height setting. This is a big problem for me – speakers absolutely need to be able to sit to the left and to the right of my monitor, not under it, and not sitting sideways. The cable needs to be longer; at the very least, the short cable length needs to be included in the description.
But the real deal breaker is, when I’m not playing any audio through the speakers, there is a high pitched tone that emits from them. I cannot figure out why this happens/what causes it, but the tone drives me absolutely crazy. I was able to mitigate this somewhat by turning the volume to its lowest setting, or at least very close to its lowest, on the speakers themselves (using the audio controls on the actual speaker), and then raising the volume level in Windows. However, it turned out I had to set the volume to 100% in Windows to somewhat comfortably hear anything – and even then, it was a bit too low for my preferred volume level (and like I said, I usually don’t have my speakers set very high – so this is pretty quiet).
The product description mentions, “USB powered with 3.5mm audio and mic cables” – I have no idea why it says anything about a mic cable. These speakers do not have a mic cable, as they do not have a mic (there is also no mic passthrough jack, or anything like that). The included instructions also mention Bluetooth – these speakers do not have Bluetooth. The instructions must be reused from a similar product made by this company that do have Bluetooth, or maybe it’s a misprint.
The color changing settings are pretty cool. There are six settings; solid red, solid green, solid blue, rainbow/multi color pattern that seems to move “upwards,” rainbow/multi color pattern that seems to move “downwards,” and the last setting, which is definitely my favorite, starts out solid purple before slowly fading into other colors in a loop. The first color changing settings are cool, but change very rapidly. The third color changing option/fade is much slower and, in my opinion, much nicer if I’m going to be sitting at my desk playing games for a while.
Note, while the LEDs on the front of both speakers change with a tap – the button illumination does not. The buttons are illuminated in red LEDs and do no not change. The button illumination for the power button also seems a little dim, it could be a faulty set of LEDs behind it.
Long story short (TL;DR) – if you only need “okay” audio/just need “something”, are on a tight budget, don’t have an ultrawide monitor, don’t mind the short cable and/or don’t mind having a cable run across your desk, then these speakers might work for you. The color settings are pretty cool, and they do look pretty nice. If the cable was longer, and if the strange high pitched tone didn’t exist, then I would probably keep them. But unfortunately, these speakers will be going back.

Buy them!
I bought a mouse from Reddragon and was shocked with it’s amazing quality so decided to give them a try again when I needed to get speakers for my setup and I was not disappointed. These are incredible!
Pros: absolutely amazing sound quality(seriously I was shocked how clear it sounds),look incredible, easy to set up, easy to adjust sound, ability to turn off lights while still playing audio, very clean look, and truly provide stereo sound.
Cons: obviously adds more messy cables to my desk, but that’s just one of the downsides to having a PC setup. However, if they ever make a wireless version I will be purchasing immediately!

Great Sound
These speakers have been a welcome addition to my new computer which deliver excellent sound. The flashing rainbow looks cool when booting up my computer and it certainly delivers great sound. I recommend these for someone who wants a cool look and great sound for a decent price.

Estranhei um pouco o som mas deve ser pq tô muito tempo só usando fones, As caixas são bonitas e tem um som ótimo, você só percebe um pouco o som estourando quando deixa o volume no máximo ou perto disso, até o momento não tenho oq reclamar
