Compact USB-powered stereo speakers
The Manhattan 2600 Series USB Speakers 166898 are a portable stereo speaker system designed for laptop, notebook and desktop users who want a small-footprint audio upgrade. They draw all power from a USB-A connection and use a 3.5 mm audio plug for the signal, so no separate mains adapter is required. The set weighs 0.29 kilograms and fits easily in a laptop bag or briefcase for travel.
Interface limits: USB power and 3.5 mm audio
Both speakers are powered entirely through the USB cable, which is 3 ft long, while audio travels over a separate 3.5 mm plug that must be connected for sound to operate. The in-line volume control adjusts the speaker output independently of the host device; the supplier notes that setting the source volume to 100 % and using the in-line control yields the full output range. No Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or other wireless protocol is present.
Capacity and headroom: 3 watts total RMS
Each satellite delivers 3 watts RMS into a 4 ohm load, giving a combined 3 watts of continuous power with a quoted frequency response of 90 hertz. The dynamic drivers produce full, rich audio for near-field listening, video calls and casual media playback, but the modest power and low-frequency limit mean the system is not suited to filling a large room or delivering deep bass.

Questions about this item
How do I choose between the USB power and the 3.5 mm audio plug for this 2600 series speaker set?
Both connections must be used together. The USB cable supplies power to the speakers while the 3.5 mm plug carries the audio signal from your computer or mobile device.
What does the 3 watt total power rating mean for everyday listening?
The system delivers 3 watts RMS per satellite, which is sufficient for clear near-field audio at a desk or in a small room without distortion at moderate volumes.
Does the USB-A interface limit the volume or sound quality in any way?
The USB-A connection only provides power; it does not carry audio or impose a digital volume ceiling. Maximum output is controlled by the source device and the in-line volume control.
