I’ll be honest, I don’t especially like these speakers. They are definitely adorable – you’d have two little Hello Kitty figurines sitting on your desktop – but they aren’t the best in terms of functionality. They are sold by Brando, and they want $48 for them! The speaker output itself is in the back of Kitty’s head, but most speakers have the sound coming out of the front – so you either have to have the sound pointed away from you, or stare at Kitty’s backside and the cables coming out of it. And speaking of cables, there are way too many coming out of these speakers. They are powered by USB, so there’s a cable going from the speakers to your USB hub (which you’ll need if you are taking up a USB slot with speakers), and there’s a cable from the speakers to your audio out port on the computer…and then there’s another cable that’s used to control the volume of the speakers, rather than a dial in front like everybody else. So even though these are really cute, they are expensive and don’t work so great – I’d go with something different if I were in the market for speakers.
