The Creative Stage Pro delivers significantly more than its price suggests. Especially the enormous soundstage width and the precise, dry bass set it apart from many entry-level competitors. Even as a spoiled audiophile, one can easily overlook the somewhat cool mids and a certain compression at high volumes...

The Creative Stage Pro is a great choice if you want better sound for your TV at the lowest possible price: Its powerful bass pays off with action films and it reproduces speech quite cleanly and naturally. You can't expect real surround sound in this price range, but the Stage Pro is also suitable for background music thanks to Bluetooth.
