How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want to keep a wired Logitech gaming headset alive with inline mute and volume control right on the cable, choose weishan G433; if you need actual desktop speakers with a front volume dial and a headphone jack, choose HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers.
• weishan G433 — biggest strength: a 6.6ft braided nylon cable with an inline mute button, inline volume control and a tie clip, built specifically to fit Logitech G233 / G Pro / G Pro X / G433 headsets.
• weishan G433 — biggest trade-off: it is a replacement cable, not a speaker or a headset. It only handles headphone extension and sound/voice control — nothing else.
• HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers — biggest strength: a compact 2.0 stereo pair with a front volume dial and a 3.5mm headphone jack for private listening, powered over USB-A or USB-C.
• HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers — biggest trade-off: they are tuned for clear everyday audio (speech, calls, streaming, light gaming) rather than big bass, and they need a wired USB power source.
• Who each pick is for: the weishan G433 is for someone whose Logitech headset cable has worn out or lost its controls. The HEGMUXCO set is for someone who wants sound coming out of the desk itself, not out of their ears.
The G433 is a single-purpose piece of gear, and I mean that as a compliment. It is a 2 meter (6.6 foot) AUX cable with a 3.5mm male 4-pole (TRRS) plug on one end and a 5-pole (TRRRS) male plug on the other, with gold-plated tips on both. That pin layout is the whole point: it matches the wiring on Logitech G233, G Pro, G Pro X and G433 headsets, so the headset's mic and audio both pass through correctly. Swap in a random aux cord and you often lose mic function or get mono sound. This cable is designed around that exact problem.
What it does best is restore control you probably miss. The inline mute button and volume control sit on the cable itself, and a tie clip keeps the control pod from swinging around while you play. The nylon braided jacket is meant to resist tangling and fraying, which matters for something that gets yanked around a desk, tossed in a bag and wrapped up after every session. The straight black cable is unremarkable in the best way — it just works in gaming, music listening and movie watching.
Who should buy it: anyone with a compatible Logitech wired headset whose original cable has cracked, gone intermittent, or lost its inline controls. It's also a sensible spare to keep in a bag if you move your headset between a PC, laptop and console, since it's listed as compatible with gaming consoles, laptops, desktops and smartphones. Who should skip it: anyone expecting this to improve sound quality dramatically, or anyone who doesn't own a Logitech headset with that 5-pole connection. The manufacturer is blunt about it — this cable only does headphone extension and sound/voice control. No mic upgrade, no surround processing, no magic.
The HEGMUXCO set is the opposite kind of product: an actual 2.0 stereo speaker pair built to sit on a desk. Each speaker measures roughly 3.74" deep, 3.17" wide and 7.09" tall, and the slim left/right design is meant to tuck in beside a monitor, a desktop tower or a laptop without eating your whole desk. The coaxial speakers put out a maximum of 10 watts. Power comes over USB — the listing covers both USB-A and USB-C — so there's no separate power brick hogging an outlet, which is a real convenience on a small desk.
The two features I'd actually buy it for are on the front panel. First, a volume dial you can reach without hunting through Windows settings or leaning behind the monitor. Second, a 3.5mm headphone jack, which lets you switch to private listening instantly when you don't want to disturb anyone in the room — a small thing that turns out to matter a lot in shared apartments, dorms and open offices. HEGMUXCO is upfront that the tuning favors clear daily audio: speech, meetings, streaming, tutorials, background music and light gaming, rather than oversized bass. If you're the type who wants to feel explosions in your chest, this isn't that product. And that's fine — it's not trying to be.
Who should buy it: students on online classes, remote workers doing video calls all day, and anyone who wants a tidy, no-fuss sound setup under a monitor. It also ships with a twelve-month warranty, which is worth noting for a budget desk accessory. Who should skip it: bass chasers, people who want wireless or Bluetooth (this is a wired USB setup), and anyone with a huge desk and room for a full-size 2.1 system.
• Best for reviving a wired Logitech headset → weishan G433. It's designed around G233, G Pro, G Pro X and G433 connectors, including mic passthrough.
• Best for desk audio without headphones → HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers. Two speakers, USB-powered, sound comes out into the room.
• Best for quick volume and mute access → weishan G433. The controls sit inline on the cable, plus a tie clip to stop them flapping around.
• Best for private listening on demand → HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers. The front 3.5mm jack lets you plug in headphones and go silent instantly.
• Best for small desks → HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers. Slim left/right cabinets, around 3.17" wide each, with no external power brick.
• Best for durability on the move → weishan G433. Braided nylon jacket, 6.6ft length, made to resist tangling and cracking.
• Best for clear speech and calls → HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers. The tuning targets meetings, classes and streaming rather than heavy bass.
• Best pairing, honestly → both. Many people run speakers for daily desk audio and a headset with the weishan cable for gaming and late-night sessions. They solve different problems.
In my opinion, these two don't really compete — they fix different things, and the right answer comes down to what's broken or missing in your setup. If you already own a Logitech wired headset and its cable has failed or lost its inline controls, I'd buy the weishan G433 without much hesitation; it's the cheaper, simpler fix and it restores exactly the function you lost. If you have no headset problem at all and just want sound coming out of your desk with a dial you can reach and a jack for private listening, I'd buy the HEGMUXCO Computer Speakers instead. Only one of them will actually solve your problem — pick the one that matches it.
FAQ
No. It's built for Logitech G233, G Pro, G Pro X and G433 wired headsets specifically, because of that 5-pole connector. It's also listed for use with consoles, laptops, desktops and smartphones, but I'd confirm your headset's connector before buying.
No. They're USB-powered over USB-A or USB-C. Audio input is wired, so there's no Bluetooth — plan on a cable from your PC, laptop or monitor.
For casual and light gaming, yes — they're tuned for clear everyday audio rather than heavy bass. If you want deep low-end or positional audio for competitive play, a headset with the weishan G433 cable is the better fit.
