Creative Gigaworks T20 collects dust


Strange design decision from Creative to put the bass reflex port at the top of this speaker.



There is no dust cover so the speaker collects dust through a top mounted opening. I understand it is difficult to allocate space for the bass port in a slim speaker but this is not a good compromise. I would recommend a different design where the bass port is on the front/back/side/bottom of the speaker. To make sure the right length is achieved, Creative could use a spiral design to roll up the port in the cabinet or at least provide an acoustic neutral dust cover with the product.
