What PC SPEAKERS you got?
« on: August 14, 2007, 06:03:17 PM »
I want to buy either logitech
x-540 - $600 - overpriced and small, low power, base you can hear and not feel, 5.1
z-2300  - $900 - base you can feel, 8 inch sub but 2.1 and not able to wall mount
z 5300 - $1200 - base you can feel, 6 inch sub and can wall mount, 5.1

have not gotten to hear the 2300 and 5300 yet.
what do you have and what do you reccomend it get?

currently i have x620 - 3 years old and missing 3 speakers(stolen)
base that you can hear and feel, low power.

Currently have the X-530....sufficient for the most part, going to buy the z5300 sometime in the near future, since the speakers have a slight short, that may cut off signals to the front left channel on occasion.

have an x530 , got it for like 500 ish ,which included shipping to my house .

 Weakish bass , but my  family complains if i pong out music , and my workstation all wood , so whatever little it provides i can feel vibrating all around .

more useful for gaming.. 5.1 means  i can hear people walking around corners in multi FPS, and own them .

x530 and the Benwin speakers from some years ago that had the flat satellites. I ripped out those (which were insanely retarded btw) and just use the subwoofer. Bought a cheap signal splitter and now I run the sub from the benwin and the x530. The two combined gives pretty good bass that you can feel, more than good enough for me. Dont use these for gaming though. I use headphones.

I;ve got an x530 as well as a Z-5300

Now using the Z-5300, the sound is incredible, a major leap from the x530...

and the Sub rumbles my room...all my cupboards literally shake, and stuff fall down on my desk when I really play it...
And at super loud volumes it maintains sound quality and doesn't get distorted as the x530, and other models...

Cannon as the z5500, thats an amazing one as well...

Good investment @ a Z5*00

I got a set of the z5300's at work, not bad for what they cost.

i also have a set of the z5500's, EXCELLENT system!! i have plans for modifying it in the future... gonna get some titanium drivers(which have a wider operating frequency spectrum which will allow me to adjust the low-pass cross over setting in the sub (it's set to high, so there's a boomey resonance). all in all, for $2200tt(i hear they're goin for no less than $2800 now!) they aren't bad!! this comming from a big Audiophile fanatic too, lol

my advice is forget those lower-end systems, you won't be impressed, get at the very least z5300 if you want 5.1 or the z2300 for 2.1

i have a pair of them old ones from about 1995~6ish there about um... it loud when you turn the dial clockwise plenty! has a power button and a lil' green light to tell you when it on. Hmm... oh the cord too short so my sound inverted, meaning what supposed to come out the left comes out the right and vice versa. i guessing it was out long so i going to say it 2.0






oooooooo 99th post!

the X530 is excellent for the price. you wont be disappointed. i have a set that i modified and it sounded really great even though its low power. my bro has it now and sometimes when he's playing music in his room, im still amazed at the sound that comes from such a small woofer. right now i have a hybrid Z680 system that sounds beastly! i say modified because i swapped out the z680 sub & box and replaced them with a 10" diamond audio sub, running on the same z680 amp.

Ah youngon, it wasn't showing off, it was merely saying thats what I got, talk done. Now on the other side you can put what you have to supply your audio signal, in which case atm its plugged via optical to meh 360 otherwise its optical via my Audigy 2 ZS Platinum. I do have a pair of X-530s though... but once yuh hear the Z5500 the 530 seems like headphones :p
