Thread: Creative 52 wireless

Freedom from wires! Well, not exactly. The 52 from Creative is a Bluetooth-enabled 2.1-channel speaker system which can link up to your PC using the bundled pre-configured U5B Bluetooth dongle. You can comfortably stream music from a distance of 30 feet. The 52 can also be paired with any Bluetooth-enabled gadget. Alternatively, you can plug in an external audio source using the auxiliary input on the right satellite. The right satellite also features the headphone jack, along with digital buttons for power and volume control. The subwoofer is pretty small, with the bass control and bass reflex port located on the rear, and delivers decent bass. The speakers have an excellent build-quality, with a



matte-finished exterior. The 52 delivers a total of 33 watts RM5The speakers reproduce good quality music with the right levels of bass and treble. Though the bass sounds a little boomy at volume levels higher than 80 percent, it isn't too bad. We did find a flaw with the connectivity; while using the Bluetooth as the audio feed, plugging in an auxiliary source does not cut off the existing input. In fact, the audio can be heard from both the Bluetooth source as well as the auxiliary inputs simultaneously. Apart from this issue, the 52 is the perfect 2.1-channel wireless speaker system for Bluetooth*enabled laptops, netbooks, mobile
phones and portable media players.
