Very good quality speakers, the sub gives some serious kick, whilst the other 5 speakers provide a great surround sound experience.
The sub is pretty large, with 2 speakers; 1 which faces the floor and one which faces out. The other speakers are as shown in the picture. The center speaker easily attaches to the monitor, and the others will attach to the wall easily.
Some things to be noted:
- The cables aren't very long. About 4m for each rear speaker, 2m for the front speakers and central speaker. All attach to the sub, which then attaches to PC.
- 100 on speakers, they only play music, but they have a very good quality.
-The control panel allows you to adjust the volume of the speakers individually, which is really helpful
- You can feel the floor shaking with the sub
- The mesh covers some on and off, to make them look even cooler
 Good...when you can work it! April 22, 2008

I am not claiming to be a technical genius, nor do i feel that i am a complete dunce, however i do feel it a little hard to get the best out of these speakers.
Set up was very easy, so no problem there, but then i realised that the speakers required 4 outputs from my laptop, of which i only had one.(this meant that the audio only came out of two of the speakers instead of all of them) Because of this i had to purchase a 5.1 USB audio adapter ( 24.99 from Maplin).
Again, set up of this was very easy. The problem came when i tried to actually use the speakers! I realised when watching a film through them that the sound was very echoey. This was something that i could not seem to prevent by changing the settings, and am still having trouble with now! Obviously i don't know whether this is down to the audio adapter, as this did not appear to happen when only the two speakers were functioning before this was added.
The only other problem i have had with them is that they crack quite a bit! I assumed that this was due to interference, so unplugged my external TV aerial which was near one of the speakers. This seemed to calm it down, but did not completely solve the issue. The only other thing i can assume is that it is interference from my laptop, which i can obviously do nothing about, when this is what i am trying to play music through!
Overall i was looking for a good quality system that would accommodate loud volumes and not loose quality. I think this is a fair judgment for the item that i received, but i would think that my only advice would be to only get this if you have the right audio output, as from reading the other reviews i can only assume that these problems have occoured because of my audio adapter!
Good piece of powerful kit! December 17, 2007

I love these speakers, they are very powerful with a strong bass and are a very good surround sound set. The reason that i am giving it 4 stars is because of the length of the cables. The rear ones are designed to be wall mounted and this s fairly impossible. Also the sound quality for the rear no where as good as the front. I believe this is because of the matrix and the way the sound is split up to accommodate surround sound. This can solved simply by turning down the rear speakers volume and increasing the center.
The control pad is very good with a lot of settings to set up the sound to your perfection. With the option to have the sound set to gaming or music and with various other options to change the sub woofer, surround and center volume seperately.
I bought these speakers after allot of research and am glad I did. Even though i have had a few problems the pros overweight the cons by along shot.
I was searching for a system to replace my old 5.1 set. I knew that Logitech were a very good make as i have witnessed a similar set by them from a friend and was blown away. I wanted very powerful bass and good quality to play my music(i listen to allot of heavy metal and it works great with the bass).
I have tried it at full volume to test them and the quality is truly superb. There is no distortion and the bass doesn't break up. Powerful enough to shake objects on shelves and extremely annoy neighbors.
Overall these speakers are a must buy. Simply because of the quality, power and the cost. Extreme value as i could not find another set with the power output at this price.
