WEBVTT 00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:06.080 This is the Corsair SP 22200 2.1 PC 00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:12.160 speaker system. This is the little brother to the 00:00:08.440 --> 00:00:15.679 SP2500 which I am very very fond of in 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:19.240 which we actually did a full episode of 00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:22.400 NCIX Tech Tips featuring a guest from 00:00:19.240 --> 00:00:23.160 Corsair who came to tell us all about 00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:28.640 the SP2500 which I like. The SP 2200 I 00:00:27.119 --> 00:00:33.040 haven't tried so I don't know what I think of it but we are going to at least 00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:36.880 have a look at the specs and the physical appearance today. So 00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:41.680 specifications okay frequency response specs. Now Corsair is all about 00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:46.719 reference sound. So that means that they're trying not to color or um or 00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:51.360 alter in any way the sound that was intended by the game developer or um 00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:55.920 movie producer or whoever it is that happens to be working on developing 00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:58.719 audio content. So, moving on from there, 00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:02.719 46 watts total power measured via FTC RMS method. So, that means you can 00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:05.920 literally run it at that entire 46 watts for the entire lifetime of the product, 00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:09.200 days at a time. Probably not the entire lifetime of the product, but days at a 00:01:07.600 --> 00:01:13.680 time, and this will not burn out or distort in any way, shape, or form. 00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:17.360 Subwoofer dimensions are 9.1 in x 9.9 in x 7.1 in. and satellite dimensions. 00:01:16.240 --> 00:01:22.560 Well, obviously we're going to see that because we're going to open this up, but subwoofer is a six-inch sub sidefiring 00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:28.159 ported subwoofer suitable for desk or floor placement. It is 30 watts, which 00:01:24.880 --> 00:01:30.159 leaves us with uh 16 watts, 8 watts each 00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:34.640 for the two satellites. So, those are 2 in drivers. We do not have separate 00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:38.479 tweeters on this particular skew. And then there we go. 8 watts per satellite. 00:01:37.119 --> 00:01:41.840 Okay. Three inputs for maximum flexibility, which we'll see when we 00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:45.840 open it up. Uh, main volume and subwoofer output control dials on the 00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:51.520 right satellite package contents. Okay, let's just open this thing 00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:52.280 up. I tire of specifications. Let's just 00:01:51.520 --> 00:01:58.560 open boxes. That's what we do on this channel. 00:01:55.880 --> 00:02:03.119 SP2200 speaker system. This appears to be a guide which shows you how to hook 00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:07.640 it up to things including televisions and left speakers and right speakers and 00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:14.920 iPods and headphones and computers. Sweet. warranty guide, not a 00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:17.360 warranty card. This is a guide and it's 00:02:14.920 --> 00:02:21.440 long. Do not return this product to the store. Return it to Corsair instead. As 00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:24.959 a as a retailer, I appreciate those kinds of warnings because that means we 00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:28.480 don't have to deal with it and instead Corsair deals with it. But the reality 00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:31.680 of it is if you want to, you can return it to us, too, because we're awesome 00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:36.160 like that. And we take care of our customers at NCIX where I work for 00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:41.920 anyone who actually doesn't know that by now. 00:02:38.720 --> 00:02:43.920 Yeah. Oh, yeah. My shirt, too. Sweet. 00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:48.760 Okay. Environmentally friendly paper packaging. Love it. More environmentally 00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:53.280 friendly paper packaging. Love that, too. Next, 00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:58.480 we have what appears to be a power cord cuz it's 00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:02.959 heavy. Yeah. Yeah. There's my power 00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:05.239 cord. It's heavy. So, that is a uh 17vt 00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:10.599 2.5 amp power brick. Plus 00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:14.080 cables. Got a subwoofer. See, I'm doing the whole 00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:17.599 package contents thing without reading it off the side of the box. I'm just 00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:25.840 unpacking stuff. I'm like, "Okay, yeah, we got subwoofer. We got a 00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:25.840 cable. We got some boxes. We got some 00:03:26.760 --> 00:03:34.480 satellites." At least that's how I would say it if I was cool, but I'm 00:03:31.640 --> 00:03:37.440 not. Satellite speakers. So, we're taking these out. You know what? Give me 00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:43.280 a sec off camera. I'm going to take all these plastic bags off because they're in my 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:48.080 way. Okay, so we got it set up just so that cameraman and I could audition the 00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:52.319 SP2200s a little bit. So, here at the back you will find all the input 00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:56.159 options. So, we've got Okay, first of all, output. So, you output to your left 00:03:54.239 --> 00:04:00.879 speaker as well as your right speaker using um like baby's first plug. Look 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:05.280 how huge this thing is. It's like ridiculous. I love it. So, that goes in 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:09.920 there. And then uh down here is power in. Okay. Then we have an input. So 00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:15.599 that's left and right. Just your standard 00:04:11.640 --> 00:04:17.840 um standard analog inputs. Okay. And 00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:22.639 then our other input is actually built right into the back of the right 00:04:19.440 --> 00:04:25.080 speaker. So that's your 3 and 12 mm jack 00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:31.199 right there. So that I'm using for my iPhone. And then the left speaker just 00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:36.720 has a wire that runs to the sub. Okay. Next, we have one of these, which I 00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:40.880 actually can't fathom what this is for. Oh, yeah, for the auxiliary input at the 00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:43.600 front. So, you have up to three inputs. So, that would be normally, I guess, 00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:46.880 what you would use for your iPhone. And then the other one, this guy up here, 00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:51.600 would go around to the back of your computer if you were smart. Okay. Then, it comes with one of these, so you can 00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:57.120 run that to whatever other device you happen to want to run off it. 00:04:54.280 --> 00:05:02.639 And oh, there's a Conucks game coming up soon. I just got my notification on my 00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:05.280 iPhone. Okay, so here it is. 75 bucks on 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:09.840 sale at NCIX right now. For that price, I'd say the sub especially is a pretty 00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:14.880 good value. Uh we played a few different genres of music and we found the the 00:05:12.080 --> 00:05:20.039 bass quite uh quite compact, for lack of a better word, quite punchy. Uh 00:05:16.960 --> 00:05:23.759 definitely better than most sub 00:05:20.039 --> 00:05:25.600 $100 sub. That was a pun. Most sub $100 00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:28.440 speaker setups. The satellites were a little bit less impressive, especially 00:05:27.039 --> 00:05:33.440 when compared to the SP2500s, but you got to bear in mind 00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:37.440 that that kit costs at regular price more than double of what this one does 00:05:35.440 --> 00:05:41.360 at regular price. So, there are compromises to be made. This one's 00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:45.840 definitely better for the spaceconscious consumer because it doesn't take up a 00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:49.199 whole lot of room. And I think that's pretty much everything I wanted to say 00:05:47.039 --> 00:05:52.400 about the SP2200.
