Creative uses NeoTitanium micro drivers which deliver much better audio than ordinary aluminium drivers, combining a more realistic presence with crisp detail and strong penetration. A powerful subwoofer with flared port tube combines clarity and detail with clean, strong bass, while the wired remote makes the I-Trigue 3330 easy to manage.

Designed to deliver elegant, stylish listening, Creative's I-Trigue 3330 speaker system is the choice for people who demand great desktop audio with extra style. The impressive design of the tall, slim satellites features three silver drivers that contrast dramatically with the glossy black enclosures. They look brilliant alongside notebook PCs, flat panel monitors, and other advanced systems.

Creative's I-Trigue 3330 speaker system is the choice for people who demand great desktop audio with extra style.

NeoTitanium micro drivers deliver crisp detail and strong penetration.

Wired remote with volume control and power on/off.

Creative uses NeoTitanium micro drivers, which deliver much better audio than ordinary aluminum drivers, combining a more realistic presence with crisp detail and strong penetration. They're also magnetically shielded, so you can position them near monitors or TVs without causing interference. For the low end, a powerful subwoofer with flared port tube combines clarity and detail with clean, strong bass, while the wired remote with volume/bass control and power on/off makes the I-Trigue 3330 easy to manage.

An adapter is included for using your I-Trigue with a source other than your computer, such as a video game system, television, DVD player, or other device with RCA outputs. It's also perfect for listening to your iPod or MP3 player. And while the system packs enough punch to wake the neighbors, when volume is an issue, the I-Trigue features a headphone jack for personal listening.

What's in the Box
Two satellite speakers with attached 2m cables, subwoofer, wired remote control, dual RCA-to-stereo adapter (Video Game Adapter), stereo-to-stereo audio cable, power supply adapter, Quick Start leaflet, warranty and technical support leaflet

Great computer speakers4
I read all the reviews a hundred times and ended up more confused than when I started. So, let me offer my honest opinion. These are great computer speakers, but if you are looking to use them for a party or to fill a large room, the volume may come up a little short. However, as computer speakers, these provide great clarity and will definitely enhance your music listening experience. The sound will definitely fill up a bedroom or office.

Edit after 2 months use5
I have been looking for new speakers for my computer since i moved my JBL duets from home to the office. I was going to get another set of the JBLs: they have a great sound and what I thought was decent bass for a compact 2.0 speaker, I really wanted a speaker with a ready available headphone jack which the JBL's don't have: I'm glad, becasue i would have never bought the I-Trigues.

I was going to go for 2.0 again I kept thinking "all i have to do is find a set with really good ratings, the bass isn't that bad in a 2.0" I was laughably mistaken.

I considered 4 models in the 2.0 realm: Bose Companion 2, Creative T20's, Klipsch Groove and Behringer MS 16. I was hoping to stay around [...].

Behringer ruled out right off the bat... too big for my desktop.
Creative ruled out after a listen at Best Buy pitting them vs. Bose- the latter prevailed slightly, but high in the price range and really not worth that much better than my old JBL's.

I had my heart set on Klipsch... was going to buy them but saw this Creative 2.1 system on sale and figured I'd gamble.

Got these a day earlier than the tracking stated... bonus.

Unpacked and noticed right off that the satellites themselves are not as tall as I had feared... from the pictures they look awkwardly tall but in actuality are only a shade taller than the previous JBL's I had and I see those as relatively compact... the Creative satellites actually take up less room.

The sub is a good size, just enough room under my desk. The black and silver finish is very modern and looks smooth.

Hooked it up, like the wired remote... right on your desk with control for power, volume and bass intensity as well as a phone jack.

I went straight for a heavy track to put it through it's paces out of the box- Audioslave's Cochise. Figured since I have grown so accustomed to my 2.0's needing a bass assist via EQ, I'd ramp the bass up on the sub- NOT NEEDED!

This system is rich... nice highs and decent mids, and the bass is just fine at the lower reaches of the dial. My ONLY drawback is that I wish it had an input jack on the wired remote for an MP3. Not exactly that hard to plug in to the back though.

In sum, for the [...] I paid, I am happy my JBLs are retired to light duty playing low volume- no big bass needed- music at work. I look forward to this MASSIVE upgrade in sound quality. I'm a very picky audiophile (one of those "If it ain't FLAC I don't need it" types) I'm also a musician so I have a pretty fickle ear.

I figure this system won't last on Amazon at this price... probably being phased out. If in doubt just know that there is NO 2.0 system on the market that will get you close to the thump that this system will give you on even it's lower bass output settings. I doubt any 2.1 system could touch this one at the 50-100 range.

OKAY- after 2 months use, the wired remote is not working well- volume is up and down for no reason. i'm now to send the entrie unit back to Creative and see what their verdict is. I will suspend judgment until then.

Great Speakers with One Huge Problem2
After researching a number of speakers (Logitech, Altec Lansing, Creative) both online and in the store, I thought these sounded 95% as good as the Logitech Z-2300, and were much more compact and would fit perfectly in the space I have available. And for the price, I thought I was getting a bargain. Let me be clear, the sound out of these speakers is fantastic. The price, the size, the style, all excellent. HOWEVER, the interference from my cell phone is just ridiculous. Every 5-10 minutes I get this deafening hiss that lasts for 5-20 seconds as my phone gets a text message or checks email. If it weren't for that, these would be perfect speakers. But if you have a smart phone that checks email occasionally, or receive texts, or intend whatsoever on keeping a phone within 10 feet of these speakers, DON'T BUY THEM. You'll wish you didn't; they'll drive you nuts. It's a little difficult to enjoy music that gets interrupted with some pretty incredible interference every 10 minutes. These speakers are going back to Amazon, and I'm going back to the store, cell phone in hand, to find a comparable set that won't hiss at me when I least expect it.
