Funny, these speakers seems to be made of pure gold. Once i tried putting 200W to them for 5 min, no damage done. Amazing!

Logitech Z-5500 Digital review

By (expertreviews.co.uk)

Award: Best Buy!

Logitech's THX-certified Z-5500 speakers are a good compromise between a full AV receiver and speakers and standard PC speakers.

This outstanding PC speaker set gives the home cinema speakers a run for their money. It's affordable and sounds great.

Logitech Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Set

By Elias deGroot (consolegaming.eu)

We review one of the most popular digital 5.1 sets on the market.

The sound of weapons firing sounded more dynamic than Modern Warfare 2, which added to the feeling of realistic weaponry. And when a grenade near you explodes, you hear a loud explosion followed by a high bee, simulating the experience of a real such...

Logitech - Z-5500 Digital

By (itreviews.co.uk)

If you've never turned up your speakers while watching the latest Hollywood action blockbuster and felt the thump of an explosion come up through the sofa and reverberate around your ribcage, with the front windows rattling ...

Considering the price, these speakers are excellent and fully at home whether connected to your PC or TV, playing either music or movies. For the latter, the clarity of the dialogue via the central speaker really impressed us.

Strong bass, Great sound overall

A little weak in the music department

If you need a great set of PC speakers for movies and games, then the Z5500s should be a prime candidate. For music lovers they may not be the first choice, but their strong performance all around means they cannot be ignored.

Logitech Z-5500

By Brandon King (digitaltrends.com)

Award: EDITORS' CHOICE

Logitech's Z-5500 5.1 speakers, one of our all-time favorite picks, suffer from a serious flaw: They're just too darn good. Though a couple lower-powered 5.1 options have made their way to the shelves since their introduction a couple years ago, the...

Excellent sound; Plenty of power; THX certified; several processing modes

Lacks TrueHD and HDMI passthrough; minor design foibles

The Logitech Z-5500 is the best all-around PC speaker system we have used to date.

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