CNET.co.uk judgement:
For the price, Logic3's JiveBox is a very attractive speaker option. It sounds great even at high volumes and bass performance is impressive. It's by no means one for the audiophiles due to the lack of separation between channels, but for 95 per cent of potential buyers, it's a corker
