Creative Stage sound bar review: Ridiculously cheap, but good for small TVs

The Creative Stage offers more features than other budget sound bars, including HDMI and a separate subwoofer. It plays clearly, and the subwoofer sets it apart from "all-in-one" sound. It's perfectly suited to desktop listening and also performs well...

It's not as successful as a TV sound bar due to the physical length restrictions of the cabinet, with little stereo separation. It doesn't play as loud as you might want in a living room environment.

The Creative Stage sound bar and subwoofer combo sets the standard for a desktop gaming system on a budget and can even work with small TVs.
