| Logitech Z-5500 5.1 Channel Digital Speakers ![]() And 'I will talk about the behavior of the kit in-a-box Logitech Z-5500 is not absolute but relative, that is directly comparing only plants that I know well, the reason for this is very simple: I do not know in detail the performance of systems € 5.1 from 3-400 then I do not think it makes sense to pretend otherwise and improvised audiophile experience. Based on the assumption that the characteristics of this kit are clear to the reader speak very briefly plants from time to time put a comparison of Logitech: Philips 5.1 to satellite dishes from 100W RMS total (10 x 5 plus 50 subwoofer), Creative GigaWorks 2.1 75 W RMS x 2 plus the 150 sub (cones by 7.6 cm, 20 cm sub), another 2.1 composed of Harmann Kardon stereo amp 2 x 80 W at 8 ohms, speaker Polk Audio Monitor 30 (from 13 cm woofers, tweeters 2.5 cm), Polk subwoofer cone with 30 cm (12 inches) autoamplificato to 130 W, analog source Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4, finally Sansui stereo system with turntable (33/45 laps, head Shure), quadraphonic increased to 40 W RMS per channel, three-way speakers with tweeters 5 cm, mid-woofer 13, woofer 26. I have heard several films with the 2.1 Creative: the yield of dialogues is decidedly worse than the Logitech as they are sometimes highly nasal, a problem that I have not found only in small part with the Z5500, compared to the timbre of the average is less mixed Creative resulting in the now much more balanced (the Creative pay is too "hot" for so small cones and closed), the differences between the two systems remain with the music (tested with disco music, rock, pop, light) where the Logitech are now more balanced because some 'more likely to rise in frequency, although here, at least with the popular genres, the closure of Creative on medium-low is felt less than the film. |

The analysis of the performance ends here, now I will only talk about the construction quality and ease of use. Subwoofer aside as the plastic material is reigning, often to simulate the aluminum is on satellites on which the turret decoding (including knob, although it may seem otherwise), the only external metal really is the beautiful head. I agree with this choice because otherwise the price would be increased or would have spared the sound quality, particularly in light of the fact that the design is very nice, better than the other computer systems for quality (unless you consider those kits that point All the design but that mountain minidriver ridiculous) and say at the same level of a kit sitting in the same price (speaking only of design because I heard them too little to make assessments otherwise, then I will not).The balance of gray "metallic" and allow the black to integrate seamlessly in environments where there is even one of these colors. The tower is solid and well made, the remote shows as an economic achievement can have a sufficiently pleasant and a great convenience of use, even in darkness where with some 'practice you can use it without problems due to different shaped buttons. ![]() The unit used to supplement the bass amplifier is solid and well built, the back is a sink of generous dimensions that even after a film is sustained enough volume to warm up the panel on which it lies is also granted with a large numbers of screws, a sign of constructive care. We come to the defects, as regards the output from sub amplificade, had attacked them so precisely to each other with all the space that was? As for the satellites I have nothing to say, but the basics (which can not be off!) I have complicated the lives not just, first of all are (necessarily) inclined to fifteen degrees upward, this means that if you are at ear height (as they should be) backlog of a few meters we find the ideal listening much more top of our head, also will attack them if the wall through the (much advertised) swiveling base can not tilt to the point of listening (as they should be). ![]() Even the layout ideal environment in what is often complicated (and thus wrongly overlooked), in this case Logitech engineers have also made some 'of them, I must say that Creative has done much better.Only thing truly comfortable is the satellite as an effective central position and orientation.Single precisely on the central tower is a display that has some small to read from the sofa and, but this is a smallness, the knob, very comfortable, has a strength not constant rotation. As for the settings I found very effective (but also ample precise), although the curve of equalization editable in real time I have not found (the change in the level of the subwoofer, without even one for high frequencies, and programs pro logic should be publicized the "change curve EQ in real time"?) but probably in a system of this kind would only create confusion, so good. I close with total considerations are satisfied with my purchase, the price seems competitive (hence the benefit of the doubt must be given the background of this review), the strength of this system is certainly playing the soundtracks of films If the quarry well with games and, thanks to good power, can give the listener the satisfaction of not demanding music, but beware because in this case that price is 2.1 and stereo systems for music that are better, certainly you must give up multichannel. Some may criticize the way I played this review but I do respect that is the only way to bring out the characteristics of a plant unless you know in detail what the market offers. The entire test was carried out by connecting the Logitech Z5500 to the motherboard of your computer through a fiber optic cable. |
