JBL Creature III

JBL's Creature speakers have long been one of the most peculiar and pleasantly eyecatching designs around. This 34W, 2.1 desktop speaker system lives up to its name more than ever before, with tentacular legs at the corners of the subwoofer and...

Spend a little time adjusting your Mac's audio output and you'll be very happy with the Creature III. However, the Creature II can still be snapped up online for as little as 60. For a significant saving of 40%, we think you'll be just as happy with them

JBL Creature III Review

I have to admit that I've never been impressed with small speakers, even those designed for computer use. Even worse are those that promise big sound, but

Great Design ; Unique touch controls ; Small, space saving design ; Performed admirably well for its size ; Uniform sound

Treble/Bass control placed on sub ; Power on the back of sub ; Sub could be larger ; Where are cool light effects

JBL’s Creature III stands out with a unique, modern design that still looks fresh after 8 years. It’s a slightly updated design that that looks even better than the original one. The overall system size is impressively small and should be perfect...
