AOC Splitx Detachable Computer Speakers, Bluetooth 5.3, 10W RGB

Some desktop setups call for a compact soundbar, while others benefit from speakers placed on either side of the screen. The AOC Splitx gives you both layouts in one detachable speaker system, so you can arrange your audio to suit your workspace.

For a streamlined desk, connect the speakers as a soundbar. Split them apart when you want a stereo pair beside your monitor. Their modular design is made to work with both compact desks and wider monitor setups.

Bluetooth 5.3 supports wireless audio, while USB power and 3.5 mm audio and microphone jacks offer a wired connection option. The 10W peak output and dual 2-inch full-range drivers bring stereo sound to a desktop or gaming setup.

Usage tips

Use the speakers together as a space-saving soundbar, or detach them and place one on each side of your display for a stereo layout. The cable between the speakers is 120 cm long, giving you room to position them across a wider monitor setup. This flexibility makes the Splitx useful when rearranging a desk or switching between a compact arrangement and a more spread-out gaming station.

Connect wirelessly over Bluetooth 5.3 or use the wired setup with USB power and the 3.5 mm audio and microphone jacks. The listed compatible devices include desktop computers, laptops, gaming consoles, smartphones, tablets and televisions. For a PC or laptop desk, Bluetooth can keep the audio connection wireless, the wired option provides another way to connect as part of a desktop setup.

Touch controls cycle through six RGB lighting modes: flow, gradient, red, green, blue and off. Choose a colour effect to bring lighting to a gaming space, or turn it off for a more understated look. A volume knob provides a separate, direct way to adjust listening level.

Why it makes sense

A fixed soundbar is suited to a single, centred placement. The Splitx adds the option to separate the speakers, which is useful when you want audio positioned on both sides of a monitor or need to adapt the layout to the desk. You can choose the arrangement that fits your workspace without changing speaker systems.

Its combination of wireless Bluetooth and wired connectivity also gives you flexibility across compatible devices, from a laptop used for everyday listening to a gaming console or television. The RGB controls add a configurable visual detail, while the off setting keeps the speakers looking more minimal when lighting is not wanted. The volume knob makes quick level changes straightforward at the desk.

Final verdict

The AOC Splitx is a practical fit for desktop users who want one speaker system that can switch between a space-saving soundbar and a separated stereo setup. Bluetooth 5.3, wired connection options, 10W peak stereo output and selectable RGB lighting make it well suited to everyday computer audio and gaming spaces where adaptable placement matters.
