Logitech has taken its award-winning Z-680 speaker system and made it even better. How? By improving everything from the subwoofer to the satellites and adding new innovations like real-time digital sound equalization.The result is the Logitech Z-5500 Digital, a THX-certified, 505-watt 5.1 surround sound speaker system that offers everything you could possibly want... and some things you didn't even know you needed. And once you plug in your PC, DVD or music player, or video game console, you'll never want to listen to anything else.

 speakers March 8, 2010
Ruben Puente
These speakers are not bad at all so far and really easy to use. You don't have to fight with a receiver in order to get the speakers to work right .
 Best purchase I ever made. They go to 11 March 3, 2010
Cozmo Trouble
These speakers are crystal clear and loud as hell and not to mention that they are easy on the eyes. They handle bass very well and never get boomy or bottom out when the sub woofer is jacked up. The first thing I did when I got them was slap on a metal album and turned it all the way up and went outside to see how they sounded... er I mean how much I would be bothering my neighbors (hey... I'm a guy). They literally shook the windows on my house. And they were crystal clear with zero distortion even when they were turned up all the way (they do go to 11 btw, how cool is that?). I have them hooked up to my media center PC via the fiber optic cable and have turned off all the bass or treble, equalizers controls and other effects so I have a clean of a signal, with as little coloration as possible, and they sound wonderful with out any "help". Movies and games are awesome with the 5.1 speakers.
Do not walk, RUN to the store and get you some.
Nice set!!! March 3, 2010

Well... I bought these over 6 months ago. I actually have these set up in my Kitchen. The way my Kitchen is designed; I have a good bit of space on top of our cabinets. And my Kitchen is a good size. I put all the speakers on top and the Sub on the floor. The main control is setting a bit off to the side. And all the wires are hidden properly and up thru the Cabinets. Now in my Living room I have an Onkyo 7.1 system that puts out 1000 watts, which I used most of the time.. And when I put this system in, I kinda figured it would be an OK system as a side thing to use at times. Well after putting these in, I was completely amazed at the sound quality. These are louder than I expected. And they sound great. I do wish there was a bit more cleaner Bass, not I am still happy with these.
I have been using these more than my main system. In fact I very rarely use my other system to listen to music anymore. I got these from DELL at a great price ( 250 including free shipping) and these are well worth the money. Even if I had paid more, I would be happy with them. These are a great Speaker system as your Primary or secondary. You will definitely be happy with them..
Simply Amazing! March 3, 2010
Ricardo A. (Chihuahua, Mexico)
This speaker setup is the best of the best of the best in audio quality is just simply amazing its very loud. believe today i out the song of white girl at 3/4 of the volume thats 15 lines the bass was so strong that it give me a headache its true i'm not lying. well about fidelity is incredible the speaker even at impressive high volume you can't hear distortion even if you want to is kinda impossible.
-The sub is enormous, it has a amazing sound
-The control panel is very "pro" looking and its very elegant
-the speakers are quite big but they have an incredible sound
-the remote control is not that beautiful but works fine
-the cables are long enough. surround speakers: 7.6 mt. front speaker: 4.5 mt.
-the sub is 13 x 13 x 16 i think (if anyone require the info.)
Good for all intended uses... and some more February 24, 2010

MUSIC: For all those that have negative/critical feedback regarding reproduction for music, I want to recommend using the Equalizer functionality of your sound card software. If that is not available, then I recommend downloading and using a player that does (VLC is freeware and quite good.) Understanding how to use an Equalizer will deliver the full range of sound that you seem to think is "missing." These speakers really deliver the full range and music is just fantastic once the system is set up correctly.
GAMES: This system is excellent. I have two gaming systems. One has the Logitech 5.1 and one is a many thousand dollar set up driven by an XFi Fatality, a Yamaha RX-V2600 and Klipsch RF series 5.1 system. Honestly, the Logitech indeed is excellent as all ready stated. Sure, there is a bit of a difference in clarity, especially in the fronts and center channels, but interestingly the surrounds are nearly the same. For 400.00, I am amazed at the clarity and precision of sound in games such as COD MW2, Dirt 2, Crysis Warhead. The position of sound is so crisp, you can hear bullets whiz past you and hitting something behind you. Footsteps are also discernable so you know not only that someone is behind or to the side of you, but how far away they are. Explosions actually sound like explosions and not just loud messy noise. Unreal. The tightness of the drivers and sub delivers.
MOVIES: Pretty darn good. So good in fact that I find myself watching movies on my 25" LCD through these speakers at times rather than firing up the 52" LCD based HT system. That is saying something! Much as this system performs in games as detailed above, it also delivers similarly for movies. The fronts are not quite as "wide" as I might hope for, but for a 400.00 speaker system, they sure sound incredible enough in my computer HT environment (which is much smaller than the main HT set up.)
CONTROLS: This has been well documented by others. Pros are the ability of setting volume for each channel, of connecting in peripherals and the optical link as well as DTS and PL II built in. Nice. Cons are the lightless remote, bright LCD and perhaps size of it too.
I believe this is a good value. For 250.00, which some got it at years back, you got a steal! I would buy them again/recommend them to anyone. They serve their purpose (PC 5.1) perfectly and perform more (potentail HT use) admirably.
