Z-5500 5.1 Speaker System

This top-ranked surround-sound speaker system offers great features and terrific sound.

Digital coaxial and optical inputs, Good sound quality

Can be bass-heavy

Cheaper 5.1-channel speakers are out there, but Logitech's Z-5500 presents an optimal mix of sound and features

Logitech Z-5450 Digital

The Logitech Z-5450 Digital speaker system offers dramatic room-filling sound despite some anomalies, comprehensive multichannel support, and an outstanding connector selection.

Wireless Surround speakers. Flexible input options. Cordless remote. Integrated multichannel decoders. Easy wall-mounting.

Idiosyncratic frequency response. Mounting satellites on stands is tricky. Pricey.

Logitech Z-5300e review

Logitech Z-5300e At $199, the Logitech Z-5300e is a midlevel model in the company's lineup of 5.1-channel multimedia PC speaker systems. It includes five satellite speakers, a subwoofer that houses the system's amplifier, and a control module. In...

Affordable for 5.1 speakers; upmixes two-channel sources to play in all speaker channels; control module with headphone jack; integrated desktop stands double as wall mounts; includes video-game-console input adapter.

Excessively short, hardwired, front-speaker cables; lacks auxiliary audio input; lacks digital audio input; has only acceptable sound quality; so-so control module design.

If you're looking to add straightforward surround sound to your PC, Logitech's Z-5300e 5.1 speaker set delivers respectable but unexceptional performance for a reasonable price.

Logitech Z-5500 Digital

If size really does matter, then the Logitech Z-5500 Digital could be the ultimate 5.1-channel speaker system.

Fearsome volume levels. Plugs directly into almost any analog or digital source. Deep bass. Outstanding tethered control pod and wireless remote.

Bass can overwhelm the sound.

Logitech Z-5500 Digital

With such strong competition in the previous generation of high-end 5.1 speakers, it's hard for a new set to differentiate itself. Logitech's Z-5500 Digital speakers manage to stand out, however, with support not only for your PC, but also your game...

Powerful, crisp sound; Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS 96/24, and PCM 96/24 decoder; wireless remote control; coaxial and optical digital ins; headphone jack.

Expensive; the sub could sound tighter.

A versatile set of high-end 5.1 speakers, Logitech's newest flagship will handle with near-perfect quality as many audio sources as you can throw at it.

Logitech Z-5450 Digital Multimedia Speaker System Review

It seems that I spend more time in front of my computer these days than I do in my home theater. As a result, I listen to music, play games, and watch video at my desk almost every day. The idea of

Can handle a computer, a gaming system, and even has an extra input for a CD/DVD player ; Includes a THX-certified DD/DTS controller (with Dolby Pro Logic II & DTS 96/24) ; Very loud and clean playback of 5.1 sources

Subwoofer becomes muddy as volume level increases when listening to music ; Stereo sound quality becomes harsh at high volume levels ; Boring styling
