Well despite what you say, as mentioned in my message, the Rock 302G
speakers sound remarkably good for their size and I would be
happy if I could get something else that sounded as good. Most of the USB
speakers are aimed at the cheap end of the market (around
$20 or so) and all that I have heard so far other than the Rock 302G are a
heap of junk.
Regards,
Barry Chapman

Well in my experience with USB speakers you're not going to have all your
criteria met particularly when it comes to your third
point.
USB ports from a computer only give a very small amount of power and in
some cases hardly any at all, that's why USB hubs come with
power supplies to make more power available.
Hard drives for example only take a fraction of power that USB speakers
may require and even then! USB ports may not have enough
power to run them properly.

Please can anyone advice me of USB computer speakers which meet the
following criteria.
1. Must be powered via USB.
2. The sound source must be via USB, that is, not a separate lead into
the audio output jack of the computer.
3. The sound quality must be good with a reasonable amount of base.
I have one set which satisfy my requirements, but am wanting to buy
another set. The ones I have are the Rock USB speakers 302G,
but they apparently have been discontinued.
I purchased a different set on spec over the Internet, the Gigabyte
GP-S4600 2.0 Speaker - USB Bus-Powered Audio System, but
didn't
discover until I received them that only the power is via the USB port.
Apart from this, to adequately describe what I think of
the
sound quality, I would need to use language which is not suitable for the
list.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Barry Chapman
