One of the best 2.1 sound systems on the market. The sound quality is amazing.. I love the 360° sound, it's like 3D, you just have to set it right in the room. The bass is clean and it can shake my hole room... I have no words, just fantastic!

These speakers sound pretty good for the price. I actually only paid $80 for these at Fry's Electronics. The tweeters sound alright. Highs are super crisp and clear but they're there. Mids are pretty good as well as the bass. Im pretty impressed because the actual woofer itself is pretty small. Good if you like boomy bass like in Hip Hop. I think these sound better than the Bose Companion 2 speakers that are also worth $100. Its a good buy but if you want clear speakers, go for something like the Z623.

On a whim I needed to blast some music while I soldered up DMX cables for a patch panel.
So I went to a PC shop and after looking at a few logitech products thought I would go LARGE with this 40watt (RMS) beast. it seemed good for the money.
My heart sank as soon as I hit the volume control. Tiny rubbish. Quiet.
This ain't 40watts (RMS), honey.
I was rediscovering why I DON"T impluse buy.
I REGRET purchasing this unit.
I think of what I could have done with the money and shake my head NOT my booty to the music.
I am such a chump.

Now, I like just about everything to do with the product, minus the satellites. Been using them for about a week now, and they're already popping and crackling on me, no matter what I listen to. It's like the initial popping of an old bad vinyl. The bass is so-so, it want a hard thumper that messes with your clothes, then don't even try. I got these because all I had was a 2.0 and I wanted a little bit of "umph" in my sounds. It does provide that...kinda. It gives an ok thump, you can feel it a bit, I just can't get over the popping, and I want much more bass, so I plan to upgrade to an 8" system, and possibly send these back.

Logitech was known to create good sounding computer speakers at an affordable price . The prevoius set I had, the X203 was great. It still sound perfect after all these years.
The Z523 however break all the rules we would expect from Logitech. They just does not sound right, and on those rare occasions where one want to turn up the volume, the sub rattle quite badly. For those who had owned a logitech before and would expect the same quality as before, you will be disappointed in the Z523

Okay, these speakers are not for audiophiles.
These speakers don't have the clearest sound, but there not bad.
What it does have is a really good bass system. For a bedroom though. You don't want to use this if you have a pretty big living room.
Oh these speakers can get pretty loud. They actually sound a lot better when its loud.
I haven't encounter any problems yet.
Overall good speakers, which should be worth $60, which that is how I bought it at.

good comments: the sub is amazing same with the speakers!!! i had Bose before, i returned them because it had some problems then i got these from sam's club and they are almost as great as Bose the Bose speakers were 100 bucks more. The bass is great with the volume control and everything i think these are the best speakers out there for this price range. bad comments: i wish the cables were longer

This system IS AWESOME. Had been looking for a system with a subwoofer that sounded good and clear. I must admit once I got it home it was more than I expected.Would highly recommend this for anyone who wanted a system to play music from a computer.

My Z523 model makes a very noticeable buzzing sound between all audio when the power is on. Only the right speaker works then the volume is at a relatively low level. This could be because the volume control/bass controls are built in on the right speaker and the right speaker has a more advanced connector to the subwoofer than the left speaker has to the subwoofer. The speakers are slightly bulky and the design is just okay. The sound is premium and impressive when the volume is at a medium or high level. The subwoofer seems more technologically advanced which is positive. The price jumped 30 U.S. dollars one month after purchasing the product now that the holidays are approaching. I am less impressed with this model compared to my previous Logitech speaker system from roughly the same price range.

so i got these on sale for 49 bucks... i didnt realize the satalites had speakers pointing in both directions - they are not ideal for audiophiles in my opinion -
sound is out of phase from bouncing off walls etc - im just baffled at that design
other than that, everything else is high quality
another issue though is the analogue volume knob is ... not even... goes from super quite to tooo loud with 2 mm of a turn

Pro: Great bass and mid-range sounds for the price. Aux RCA on sub is very useful: a more direct connection between the speakers and my desktop than the 3.5mm (cable is built-in style btw) to the right speaker.
Con: Not too sure about the "360 degree" thing - I'm in front of the speaker and these are for desktop use, not portable use.

Ive been listening to these speakers for the last hour and i am really surprised with the quality, Bass is big and crisp (and im pretty fussy) and mids and highs are extremely clear. Very Impressive for the price range, if your looking at new speakers for anything in this price range, Definitely check these ones out. You wont be disappointed at all.
