When it comes to PC audio, Creative is surely one of the first names you think of. They’ve been making everything from soundcards to headphones since before many of our readers were even born. They’ve continued to hold a solid reputation for decades. I’ve personally had a set of Creative T20’s on my desktop for the last ten years, and I had some Creative 5.1 setup before that! So, will the new Creative Stage V2 be the new desktop audio solution for me? I liked the Creative V1, but it just didn’t quite have the punch I needed, but the V2 promises to be a little bit more of everything.
Coming in at around £100, the Creative Stage V2 is pretty reasonably priced. It promises a powerful stereo sound, and it’s wide enough to compliment 32″ monitors and some ultrawide setups. Plus, you get the slim tower subwoofer, which should neatly sit under your desk to give you that low-end grunt in movies, games and music. Plus, Creative has designed this soundbar to work with just about everything, so you get HDMI ARC, Optical, AUX, Bluetooth, and USB Audio. That means it’ll work with just about any smart device, mobile device, console, TV, DVD player, PC, etc.
“The latest addition to our soundbar family, Creative Stage V2 now takes the stage as our latest all-in-one audio solution for your home.
Debuting with Clear Dialog and Surround, audio features powered by our renowned Sound Blaster audio expertise, Creative Stage V2 is an easy upgrade for you to enjoy cinema experience at the comfort of your own home. Fill your living room with expansive rich audio and deep impactful bass with the soundbar and its dedicated subwoofer.
With a wide range of connectivity options, the Creative Stage V2 is a one-stop audio entertainment system for all your devices” – Creative
