By PC World Hardware Central Posted on June 16, 2011 PC World Hardware Central in Denmark recommends the Corsair SP2500 Publication language is Danish: PC World Hardware Central in Denmark has just reviewed the SP2500 speakers and given them a Recommended award. Full Review! By Hexus Posted on January 24, 2011 Hexus reviews the SP2500 Speakers "In all, though. the SP2500s are the best PC-centric speakers we've heard. The asking price may well be a stumbling block for most readers, and many will look toward a budget set of KEF or Mission speakers and amplifier for the same outlay, but after spending hours with a set, there's little doubting that Corsair has hit the right note with its first foray into premium speaker territory. Got a high-end PC build planned? Do yourself a favour and put these on the list." Full Review! By LegitReviews Posted on January 28, 2011 Corsair SP2500 gets the Editors Choice at LegitReviews "When the Corsair SP2500 2.1 PC speaker system showed up in the test lab we hooked it up and were shocked to hear our music. We were able to hear details in the audio that we weren't able to make out on our old speaker system. The satellite speakers on the SP2500 are amazing and the midrange audio is crystal clear. Most audiophiles talk about sound separation and having bass that overpowers vocals and we finally get what they were talking about. The Corsair SP2500 might 'just' be a 2.1 speaker system, but they fill a room with crystal clear audio that is worth every penny of it. The Corsair SP2500's are worth it. You truly need to hear these to believe it." Full Review! By Madshrimps.be Posted on January 14, 2011 TechRadar reviews the Corsair SP2500 speakers "The SP2500 will set you back £200, but we can say without reservation that, as soon as you get them up and running, you'll feel completely justified. If you want high-end PC audio, here it is." Full Review! By Sweclockers Posted on April 12, 2011 HotHardware gives the Corsair SP2500 "Corsair was able to produce such a clean sounding speaker system by using individual class-D amplifiers with dedicated DSPs per driver. With a setup such as this, the power provided to each driver can be set to optimal levels and crossover points for each driver can be tuned perfectly. Couple those attributes with a tuned subwoofer enclosure, quality drivers, and tuned program and EQ presets and you’ve got a speaker system that offers clean, clear, distortion free audio at virtually any volume level." Full Review! By PCMweb Posted on July 8, 2011 Corsair SP-2500 wins an award at Hardwareluxx.de Publication language is German: "System for Gamer’s and people that love Sound with a very full Bass & extreme clearly Sound with perfect locating feeling (First Person Shooters for example)." Full Review! By Hardware Canucks Posted on February 8, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins Gold at PC Perspective "Every application I could throw at these speakers sounded just as it should. While games and movies are well represented here, music is really the strong suite of these speakers. The musicality of these speakers matches, and perhaps exceeds, that of a $300 pair of bookshelf or standalone speakers. But unlike those standalone speakers, the Corsair SP2500s feature their own amplifiers and control setup. Another $150 to $200 would need to be spent to get a standalone receiver/amplifier with similar specifications... If Corsair wanted to make a big splash in computer audio, they certainly have succeeded. The SP2500s are the best 2.1 set of computer speakers that I have set ears to." Full Review! By HW-Journal Posted on May 1, 2011 Engadget reviews the SP2500 Speakers "All in all, Corsair's splash into the PC speaker market has been a success in our view. The SP2500 is a ridiculously powerful desktop buddy, one that won't let you down if you decide you want to drown your entire apartment building in block-rocking beats. Construction and components are up to Corsair's typically skyscraping standards, which is also why these speakers come with a significant premium." Full Review! By Guru3D Posted on August 30, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins the "SIlver" award and "Editor's Choice" award at REVIOO.com Publication language is French: “At around 200€, the Corsair SP2500 is not what we’d call affordable, but if you are willing to spend this amount of money, and if you are the owner of a quality soundcard, then you will not regret it.” Full Review! By Technic3D Posted on March 21, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins Must Have at Kit Guru "The Corsair SP 2500 2.1 Speakers are the best ‘computer’ oriented speakers we have heard, especially in this price range. They outclass the Razer Mako THX speakers which have been a firm favourite with KitGuru staff for many years now. The bass is punchy, controlled and capable of rocking your teeth out of their sockets. This low end impact is well matched with a dynamic, refined mid range and restrained treble delivery." Full Review! By TechRadar Posted on March 28, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins Top Pick at Guru3D "So in conclusion, the SP2500 offers a lot for your money. It is an easy to use and easy to setup kit. The control pod / DSP is the cherry on top of the cake. The speaker audio quality really is extremely good with much clarity, great mid tones" Full Review! By Tech Gage Posted on January 7, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins the "Editor's Choice" award at PureOverclock.com "Quality like this doesn't come cheap, as the Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 2.1 Speaker Kit retails for about $200, but you get a killer speaker kit that's very well built, looks great, and has excellent audio quality. " Full Review! By Pure Overclock Posted on April 2, 2011 TweakTown gives the SP2500 95% and Best Performance Award “Another stand out product form Corsair in all areas of performance. This is probably one of the best 2.1 systems we have ever heard. With six dedicated amps at work and attention to details revealing true audiophile grade equipment, this system is a game changer (or igniter) for ‘PC Audio enthusiasts’.” Full Review! By HardOCP Posted on November 1, 2011 Speaker Sparring: Two 2.1 Speaker Systems Go Head-To-Head The gaming-speaker market has been so quiet lately that we feared Logitech’s budget boxes had driven everyone else away, so we’re happy to see two brand-new players enter the ring. The Antec and Corsair names are familiar enough to enthusiasts who enjoy building their own rigs. Antec manufactures a number of very solid power supplies, a host of CPU and case coolers, and a raft of enclosures. Corsair does the same, along with memory, SSD and USB storage, and the kick-ass HS1 USB gaming headset we reviewed in December 2010... Full Review! By TechReport Posted on January 11, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins Gold at HardOCP “The Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 High-power 2.1PC Speaker System is exceptional and we have absolutely no reservations about recommending these. Assembly was extremely easy, the speakers look great, and performed well in all of our tests. Corsair makes excellent, innovative products and its SP2500 speakers are another reason why the company deserves your hard earned dollar.” Full Review! By OverclockersClub Posted on January 11, 2011 Maximum PC awards the SP2500 KICK ASS! The SP2500 is an interesting mélange of strength and refinement. The subwoofer and speaker cabinets are brutishly powerful and unapologetically plain to behold, but the system delivers more features than we could ask for, it sounds amazing, and it’s very reasonably priced. Full Review! By R3VIEW.de Posted on June 1, 2011 SP2500 preview at Gamespot UK The SP2500 is a fantastic 2.1 system. The accuracy of satellites is something of a revelation for a consumer-focused product, letting you hear detail that you may have been missing from your audio. Though it can come across as a little clinical, the on-board DSP does a great job of offering a range of usable sounds that allow you to tune the system to your tastes. Music is detailed, accurate, and a pleasure to listen to, movies blow your socks off, and the accurate stereo imaging makes playing games a little easier too. Full Review!

By dkamera.de Posted on May 20, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins award at Cowcotland Publication language is French: A great review of the SP2500 from Cowcotland in France. They love pretty much everything, including the power, sound quality, ease-of-use and DSP-based remote, and say it's light years away from the usual PC speakers systems Full Review! By Kit Guru Posted on March 5, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins the Editor's choice award at Metku.net “In short the SP2500 is the best set of computer speakers I've seen and heard. Physically the set is in a whole another league when compared to the SP2200 and other smaller sets. The satellite speakers seem and feel very high quality and sturdy and the subwoofer is huge. As a nice touch there's also a separate remote controller. The sound quality of the set should be enough for everyone, and while the SP2500 is meant for near field listening, it can also output enough sound to fill a larger room. If you're looking for a stereo setup for your computer, the set should definitely be on the top of your list.” Full Review! By Hardware Heaven Posted on June 22, 2011 Corsair SP2500 receives the "Gold Award" over at InGame.de Publication language is German: InGame.de in Germany have reviewed the SP2500 speakers and given them their Gold award. They find very little to criticise about it, and absolutely love the sound quality. Full Review! By Guru3D Posted on June 16, 2011 Corsair SP2500 wins the "Gold Award" at TechReaction "The SP2500 is one of the highest-quality 2.1 speaker sets manufactured today. The set performs phenomenally in every listening area, but what makes it worth the $250 price tag is the astounding performance/low distortion in extremely loud playback scenarios... These speakers are capable of making even modest on-board AC97 Audio output sound good." Full Review! By Technic3D Posted on May 1, 2011 Corsair SP2500 goes Gold at HardwareHeaven “In terms of the internal design of each component it is very clear from using the SP2500 and reading the technical documentation that Corsair's audio department know what they are doing... All of this great build quality and design was implemented with one aim in mind, maximising audio quality and in this regard Corsair have exceeded our expectations... With the SP2500 Corsair has created a 2.1 system which exceeds the audio quality anything else in the same price range. In fact it produces a quality of audio which is better than many other more expensive products." Full Review!

By HardOCP Posted on July 4, 2011 Corsair SP2500 hits the grand slam at LanOC reviews - 10/10, Top Honors, & Editor's Choice award "My experience with the SP2500 was amazing. High’s, mid's and low's were all equally impressive. My only complaint from a gamers perspective was the lack of a 5.1 option for better directionality, but even for a 2.1 system in-game performance was wonderful. I was hesitant about the included controller when we started but I was impressed with its functionality. " Full Review!
