Genius is not a company we have dealt with before in terms of audio products. And that is because they do not have a massive fan base or a reputation for building great audio products - they have been making products for a very long time, though. But all that can change today with the Genius SP-i250G which is a stereo portable and USB powered speaker system.

During testing we quite enjoyed several aspects of the sound quality provided by the small Genius SP-i250G speakers. Audio quality was crisp and clear during dialogue sections of test material and the overall audibility was quite good.

Various types of music and various types of ears are going to each receive their own inherent ups and down with this system. Some music is going to be quite enjoyable due to what is decent sound quality, however as soon as any low of mid bass comes in, the whole show goes off air.

This really is not any fault of the little speakers themselves, which on their own really sound up to the task. It's just that without the driver in place to produce bass frequencies, things can only ever be so good.
