5 out of 5 stars CHHHEEEAAAPPP - VERY LOUD, DEEP BASS   September 16, 2008
E. Svirca (London, UK)
Hmmmm the Z4, one of logitech's finest creations. br /I wanted a 2.1 for a while i just never got round to it, i shopped around and read tons of reviews, and all i can say is that the Z4 is amazing!!! br /The sound quality is clear, bass is deep - no interferance whatsoever. br /For the money that i paid i was surprised with how much quality i got, my friends heard it and were quite surprised by the kick it produces. br /I love the Z4 BUT, there always is a but i think in a few months i will get th Z2300, because as good as the Z4 is i want something more powerfull. br /However if you want a extremely good system to play your music on, watch a couple of movies - the Z4 takes the cake on this one and also it is cheap


4 out of 5 stars Great value but slightly overrated   August 25, 2008

I was looking for some speakers for my desk which could provide a richer sound and also fill the room when I'm not sat at the desk. I'd been recommended the Logitech x-230 speakers and heard them for myself. I'd also seen the scores of rave reviews for them here on Amazon but I wondered if there might be a later model which improves on that design. A review I found on the net said that the Z4 speakers were slightly better and more detailed than the x-230 so decided to check them out. I've always been prejudiced against 2.1 systems with little satellite speakers expecting them to always sound harsh but having read all the rave reviews on here I decided it was worth the gamble especially when I found them at a bargain price. But, my prejudices were proved valid. You can get a nice rich and deep bass, far deeper and thumpier than is reasonable but at least with the Z4 you can set the bass to zero if you so desire. However the upper middle frequencies are very strident and the lower middle frequences somewhat lacking, resulting in a very unbalanced sound. You get deep bass, harsh upper middle and not much inbetween. Fortunately I had a graphic equaliser which I was able to put between the audio source and the speakers, allowing me to tame the worst of the harshness and create a smoother richer sound, however you can never fully compensate for the limitations of the speakers. As you move around the room the upper middle frequencies are always slightly too strident even if you get it sounding just right sitting in one spot. I can't help but wonder why Logitech didn't include a bit of circuitry to compensate for the harshness of the frequency output but maybe that would have made them too expensive for the target market of the Z4. The controls and extra line in are very handy and they have a very nice build quality and take up very little space. So yes, they are loud with no distortion and will fill the room with sound but if you're expecting a genuine hi-fi sound or even a vague approximation of one then I don't recommend these speakers. I know they don't claim to be audiophile speakers but reading some of the reviews on here you might be fooled into thinking they are.


5 out of 5 stars Huw's Review Logitech Speakers   August 5, 2008
Mr. H. A. Jones (U.K)
I bought this a few months back as my tv had very poor sound quality. I thought i'd say that the product is superb, couldnt ask for any better. I don't even have the wheel turned to a quarter sound and it is easily loud enough for my needs. And when i did put it on full blast, i could easily hear it from outside with my double glazing windows closed. Fantastic. A must buy if your looking for a small(ish) set of speakers.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent sound for an excellent price!   August 3, 2008
Mr. A. A. Harrison
Bought these speakers off another internet site in Sep 07. I bought these after reading all the good reviews on them. br /I love these speakers great sound with great bass, and the adjustable bass wired remote control is great sat on the desktop. br /My left speaker has just recently started to work intermittently, so I have sent them back and im missing them already! Should get my new ones tomorrow so will have some sounds back. even with the fault im not hesitating whatsoever in replacing them with other speakers, i would regret it! br /2 year warranty too so bonus! must buy for all.


4 out of 5 stars Was expecting better but not bad   July 29, 2008

After reading all the reviews here I was expecting to be amazed by what I would hear when I first plugged these speakers in to my TV. I noticed straight away a loud buzzing sound with out the speakers being even passed half-way volume. Then after having a mess around with my TV's volume I found that if I turned my TV's volume right up I could turn my Z4's down which got rid of the hissing and buzzing. Much, much better sound now! A problem I found with these is I find the satellites to sound quite "tinny" especially with the bass turned off. However, they look pretty snazzy and have good enough sound for me albeit lacking something my old Typhoon speakers had.
