You'll Never Want To Listen To Anything Else
Pump up the music and invite your friends over for a jamming session to the beat of the Logitech Z-5500 Speaker System, which is an upgrade from Logitech Z-680 speaker system. This time around, new innovations such as real-time digital sound equalization have been added, and everything else from the subwoofer to the satellites has been improved.
The result is the Logitech Z-5500 Digital, a THX-certified, 505-watt 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker System that offers everything you want, including settings to adjust sound level and produce digital surround sound effects– and some things you didn't even know you needed. Once you plug this system into your PC, DVD or music player, or video game console, you'll never want to listen to anything else. The sound quality will simply permeate your room and leave you in pure music bliss.

I've owned 6 pairs of these speakers and they keep blowing up. Not like I krank them either. I listen to music everyday and play my PS3 thorugh optical in these at level 1 or 2 max...out of 15!!! Yet they keep dying, grrr. Try them out for a month before expecting the best. Logitech is a great company but crapped out on this product I think :(
Extremely well designed and thought out system

I replaced a similar JBL system I bought 8 year ago for about the same cost. That's the only comparable thing about the two systems. The Logitech system is vastly superior. Well designed, quality components, ample conectivity, ease of use...I just can't say enough good things about this product. Just buy it! Prices are all over the place so beware. I paid $279 here plus shipping.

it sounds like u guys know so much about audio and computers. wow i wish i was smart like u guys. but hey arent hard drives magneticly shielded. oh yeah infact they have neodynium magnets in them. so i guess thats y i have no problem putting my pc next a 18inch sub with a 95oz magnet(way larger than what comes on the z5500) with no problem at all. and all the good reviews this system has gotten from tigerdirect,cnet, and many other reputal companies means they must be morons. um nope. u need to do some reading n find out how things work b4 u go putting something down.

These speakers are great and better than my home system. It's pathetic in the US I can't type what I want as a review. I tried around eight times and it wouldn't take my submission, so I'll spend my time complaining. I'll never do a review here again.

I got the speakers promptly. They sound friggn AMAZING,...BUT, mine would hiss if my computer was not making any other sounds. I switched sources from Optical to analog and still did the same thing. I am exchanging for same thing. Best sound ever, just ambient is unbearable. Apparently this has happened to a few other people. Look up forums.
