Compact Stereo Sound
USB audio isn't terribly demanding of bandwidth, so even if you have an old Mac or iBook with slow USB 1.1 ports USB speakers work fine, they really don't need the speed of USB 2.0 or SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports. In simple electronic terms, VOLTS times AMPS equals WATTS. So given the 5v, 500ma available from a USB 1 or 2 port, USB-powered speakers typically deliver about 1.5 to 3 watts audio power at most. With good, sensitive, and well-engineered speaker drivers this can provide a good close-range listening experience that falls a bit short of 'room-filling' sound.
