call me picky but i want the best speakers i can get for the little money i have. has anybody had any experience with either of these models or brands for that matter? i want them for music and not gaming, so i want decent bass for the money im putting into it.

I own the Z3s ... They need a lot of EQing to sound good (very peaky response) ... I also got them for much less than that at Costco ($40 CAD) ...

In all honesty, I haven't heard any computer speakers that have actually satisfied me, though ... Best computer speakers I've heard were made by Klipsche, but they were expensive ...

i have logitech z530s or something like that. theyre really bassheavy, i have my bass down at zero and u can still hear it downstairs on low volume. theyre not bad though, they suffice my musical needs.

Every Logitech system I've heard has had overpowering "bass" ... Of course, when I say bass, I mean 90-150 Hz, not actual bass ...

"Computer" speakers are a bastardization of anything good in audio...a simple 25wpc amp from RadioShack and a pair of 4.5" full range drivers in custom enclosures will be a vast improvement

I agree ... See previous statement

Who likes Klipsch 2.1?

[johnecon2001 82]

I like the klipsch ones.. and my old school logitech set. Itunes has a pretty good EQ built in and I have a plug in on top of that. So the sound gets shaped pretty well.

I do agree with JMAC about the bass though. It's pretty hard to squeez much LOW end out of them, hardly any bass felt more just heard.

Used amp and some tower speakers worked great for me untill i blew the fuse.

My bro has the logitech 4.1 system, even with the bass turned down its still quite loud (the bass)

I hadda Klipsche 5.1 system on my desktop, it comes with dual 8in subs, but you can easily throw any subs for it, just pull the amp (It screwed to the subbox) and the wires have regular connectors, so just add wire to whatever you need. I had a couple of Power Acoustic MOFO 12's running off of the stock amp...not alot of power but still hit very hard. Also, it has a single RCA output, so you can get any home audio amplified sub, and hook it up no problem...

the whole system was like 550 watts...very very loud.

you will need a compatible sound card also
