Speaker "Z305" whose volume and sound quality are almost unchanged regardless of where they are heard from 360 degrees



As notebook PCs equipped with full HD displays and Blu-ray disc drives are on the rise, there are not many people using laptops to watch movies and dramas. However, loudspeakers equipped with notebook PCs are often poor, and you may feel that "I want a powerful sound first, than screen size and image quality!"

That is why it is not necessary to say that the sound quality is impressively high, so when I checked various speakers that there are no speakers that can easily enhance the sound quality of laptop PC at around 5000 yen, It is possible to deliver "clip" on the top board equipped with a function such as "LOGICOOL laptop speaker Z305(4444 yen inclusive of tax) "was comparatively good, so I decided to purchase it and try out the sound quality and usability.

◆ Movie Review

Since the difference in volume and sound quality is blatantly compared with the built-in speaker of the notebook PC, please note the difference in sound pressure when listening to the sound from behind and the following movie Please check it.

◆ Photo review

In the package is written a catch phrase "omnidirectional sound echoing from the notebook computer". You can relax on a remote sofa while playing music on a PC placed on a desk, or when watching a drama DVD while cooking in the kitchen.


Also appeal to "omnidirectional sound overflowing in the room" on the back.


The contents are speaker body and storage bag, instruction manual


Since the storage bag is split and made loose, it is possible to insert easily with the slurry.


It is like this when put in a bag.


The body is light enough to hold in one hand.


Since the measured weight is about 234 grams, it is a level that you can take it without difficulty for business trips etc. in terms of weight.


Simple design that only "Logicool" logo is in front.


There is a power supply and volume button at the top of the main unit.


You can play music while power is supplied by simply connecting the USB terminal on the back with a PC. It is convenient for carrying around as it is not necessary to carry cables and batteries in addition.


The length of the cable is about 50 cm. Because there is plenty of length, the degree of freedom of installation is high.


The rated output of the speaker on the left and right is about 1.2 watts. Since the output of the speaker installed in "Let's Note CF - SX 1" is about 0.4 watts, there are 4 times the output compared with these models.


On the bottom is a rubber material with anti-slip. When attaching to a laptop with a clip, this surface touches the top board so you can secure it securely.


It is like this when actually connected. Driver installation etc is unnecessary and it is possible to sound to the suk.


The clip to be attached to the PC is like this. The holding power is high, if you can roughly compare the strength of the spring, it is stronger than general clothespins and weaker than the futon scissors.


It can be hooked on the display of the laptop like this.


Looking from directly above, it looks like this. Even if it is attached to the "Let's Note CF-SX 1" weight of about 1.3 km, keeping the display vertical makes it unstable.


The top board side is like this.


Generally clip claws are designed so as not to block the position where the webcam is located, so it is safe to do video chatting.


People who often watch movies and dramas on laptops and those who want to enjoy video chat with high sound quality should consider purchasing.
