Creative T100 Compact Hi-Fi 2.0 Desktop Speakers Review

Audio/Speakers&Amps by stefan @ 2019-11-17

Since the T100 did not require any software installation, we went ahead and listened to various content such as YouTube clips, FLAC tracks via USB interface, movies and some TV shows. Considering the size of the drivers and also of the speakers themselves, we were impressed by the bass delivery, which is not overpowering and also the clear highs. After a while, we found the sound output as good as when owning a much larger soundbar, but this time the space occupied on the table is notably smaller. If you are using the set on a desktop table, along your PC setup, you won’t have much use of the remote, since you can mostly fine-tune the audio output via the sound card controls or the buttons on the top of the right speaker. However, if you are installing the T100 in your living room along your TV or in your bedroom, the remote will immediately become quite important for easily fine-tuning the audio signature and more!

Packaging, A Closer Look Part I

We have recently received in our labs another interesting set of speakers from Creative, this time more powerful, with multiple supported inputs and also featuring an IR remote! The T100 Hi-Fi 2.0 desktop speakers are compatible with lots of devices and besides wired devices we can also connect to it Bluetooth 5.0 compatible smartphones/tablets or other sound sources. In terms of power output, this setup can deliver 20W RMS per each Stereo channel, for a total of 40W RMS.

The speakers are supplied in a quite compact cardboard enclosure, featuring the new box art; on the frontal area we can see the list of product highlights, but also a large photo of the setup itself:

On the box side, we will see the technical specifications in multiple languages, but also the list of inside contents:

The opposite box side will show a photo of the right speaker in operation, connected on a Bluetooth interface:

The full list of specifications is available on the back:

After unsealing the box and lifting the top cover, we will get to see a lot of protective foam material inside; small cut-outs do provide storage compartments for the hardware bundle:

Creative has supplied a remote, a power adapter but also documentation and the Stereo cable:

The remote controls are pretty self-explanatory: we do have the button to switch the setup from on to standby state, an Input selector, the Reset button for resetting the current Bass/Treble settings and get back to Default, a Bluetooth Pair button, separate buttons for different audio content (Music, Cinema, Concert, Gaming) but also controls for devices connected to the USB and Bluetooth interfaces. Further down we will get to see Treble/Bass adjustment buttons but also Volume adjustment, accompanied by a Mute button as well:

The remote is not offered with batteries, so you have to purchase a set of two in order to get the remote functional:
