Hercules launches XPS 2.1 50 PC Multimedia Speaker

The Hercules XPS is a PC desktop speaker system intended for rendering music, movie sound-tracks and games audio, but unlike much desktop speaker gear its actually been designed to be seen too!

The system consists of a subwoofer and two satellite speakers with a shiny black finish, orange driver cones and an orange highlight on the volume control.

These three elemets can all be wall-mounted or stand on your desk.

The audio characteristics are coloured by the vented wooden subwoofer which Hercules claims gives a rich deep tone.
