    These replaced an awesome 2 speaker with AC495 Altec Lansing system when one of the channels blew. No comparison.       » READ MORE

    Finally got these after admiring a friends z5500 that he has owned for a few years. What can I say, they are amazing, hooked up to my xbox360 I have actually gotten about 10 times better at games such as the call of duty series and other online fps's that benefit from accurate positonal audio. Sounds are not mudded together and you can hear everything independently even with massive amounts of explosion/gun fire noises, everything is audible and this means if your a gamer like I am you could benefit from a decent 5.1 like this. Audiphile/professional audio equipment aside this is the best system for its application. Paired with a cheap audigy SE soundcard in vista x64 this has made my ears feel rejuvenated, would buy again, and again.       » READ MORE

    Thinking of upgrading your soundcard? I suggest you get these speakers before upgrading the soundcard, these will make one big difference in sound quality! Pair in with a Forte and wow I'm crying it so beautiful! Had a female UPS driver deliver these, box is like 50 lbs, and she dropped the box like 5 times from her truck to my front porch and they were nice and intact when I unboxed them, Logitech packed them nicely and they were in 2 big boxes to make sure all is safe! Will buy again for sure!      » READ MORE

    Had these for 1.5 years, been very happy. Most of the time the volume is around 20% which is great, and occasionally I've brought them to 100% which pretty much is ridiculously loud in the basement and very loud on the middle floor. The sound quality is good throughout most of its range and isn't bad even at 100%. The price of these speakers fluctuates wildly so look around and pm accordingly.      » READ MORE

    I have had this speaker in my room for a year or so. It never fails (knock, knock) and the sound quality is awesome. The woofer is very very powerful. I got it when it was listed around 335CAD ish. It was awesome buy at that time.      » READ MORE

    The Z-5500 are boomy, muddy bassy speakers. I've had them connected to a high quality soundcard, so I'm rating it here for what it is. Go on ANY audio forum that has actual people who know about audio, and ask them what they think about this. This is OK (ONLY for games & MAYBE movies) for a $200 price tag, but not a cent more.       » READ MORE

     Rated by AShargall, May 10, 2009

    At this pricepoint there is no comparison. No other speaker system in this range is anywhere near this system in performance. I have Bose speakers from a couple years back and they literally sound like 20 buck cheapos in comparison to these (although its mostly because they tend to crackle with bass now).      » READ MORE
