Okay I apologise to Barry as I myself gave out the wrong information and Barry is actually right with regard to these speakers, I’ve had mine so long now I can’t for the life of me remember what the model number is. So again Apologies and I’ll dig up the right number and double-check my facts n

No sorry that is not correct at all, the Z120 is self powered and self contained and does not require a connection from the headphone jack, I’ll repeat again I have 6 of these pairs of speakers given that they’re so useful. > On 26 Jan 2016, at 12:19 PM, Barry Chapman wrote: > > It should be

It should be noted that whilst the Logitech Z120 is powered from the USB port, the sound is via a lead from the computer's output jack. For those who would prefer to have their music coming from the external speakers while having their screen reader coming from the internal speaker or headphones

Creating shortcuts is one way of doing things but its not an efficient way at all, you’d be better off “Mapping” the shares as drives to find them in Explorer - whether that be Windows or File Explorer depending on the Windows version you’re using. - Its a shame that you don’t setup things from

Logitech make something else in that line which is supposed to sound very reasonable though the Z300 I think it is isn’t computer speakers as such rather its a speaker block so separation may not be all that good but its a very expensive proposition, well over $200 Australian when I last looked.

Yes, they’re different given the fact that they’re not taking power from the computer itself rather from a separate power supply as you say. This of course has its advantages, the main and obvious one being that the speakers can afford to have more power behind them. > On 26 Jan 2016, at 12:22
