Hello Bob,
I am in agreement with you on that one.
But however, I've noticed that when I plug my cell phone in to my computer to sink audio files to it via the USB port, it does charge the battery in my cell phone.
I've asked both Verizon Wireless and LG about this.
They both told me, "that's suppose to happen because of the way the phone was designed."
But like you, I think that is a misuse of the USB ports on our computers.
My best regards.
 John.

John:
The problem that we are being confronted with is that people are being told that the uSB port can do just about anything from charging batteries, powering a small light source, and can also be made available to power a small electric cooling fan, and a number of other electronic gadgets. Personally I would use the USB port for its intended use. Just my opinion! ----- Original Message ----- From: "DJ DOCTOR P" <djdoct...@att.net>

High Bob,
You are correct, it does require allot of power to drive it.
And you can't get that power from a USB port.
Even though your lab top and desk top computers have 12 volte power supplies in them, your USB ports are only putting out 1.5 volts.
That's not enough juice to power a subwoofer.
For a 10 watt amp, you'll need ad lease 6 to 12 volts to get that kind of power in to the woofer itself.
This is why there is no such thing as a USB subwoofer.
My best regards.
 John.

Don't think that you are going to find such an ammonal, as the subwoofer requires a lot of power to drive it! ,----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Amaro" <mikeam...@earthlink.net>

Hello Robert,
If you go back and read his post, it says that he's looking for a good set of portable lab top speakers with a subwoofer for good sound. Sorry to bust your bubble, but you aren't gonna find portable speakers that runs on batteries with a subwoofer on them.
Those are only available in desktop mottles.
My best regards.
 John.

his main key is that he wanted portable. Desktop speakers with subwoofers get very bulky to travel with. ----- Original Message ----- From: "DJ DOCTOR P" <djdoct...@att.net>

Hello All List Members,
If you really want to get allot of bang for your buck, go with desk top speakers. Unlike lab top speakers, you get a subwoofer with them so you can hear the bass. They will plug in to the headphone jack on your lab top and or notebook.
My best regards.
 John.

There are so many laptop speakers out now. The problem is actually getting to hear and compare them before buying.

Some are USB powered. Others run on batteries, either replaceable or non-replaceable lithium. Some even have their own sound card. Most sound like small speakers. I've read reviews for some that make big claims and have bought on recommendations to be totally disappointed. I suggest to buy locally if possible from a store that will let you return if not satisfied. If you go online or mail order, you could spend a lot of money returning them if not happy.
Bob
