I connected this speaker system to my new computer and they sound great with nice bass. There is a bass control knob and the subwoofer which sounds impactful. The sound is balanced for jazz, classical music and some pop music that I listen to.

Fantastic Speakers Bass is great Games Sound Amazing and it also has auxiliary input at the back of sub so perfect for connecting to you console Overall Brilliant Highly Recommended

for the price i paid you cant go wrong brilliant sound the bass brings my digital radio to life easy to set up. delivery was excellent came the day after i ordered.i recomend this product to any one.

I'd been researching these for a couple months and finally hit them on sale for under $60. The replaced a pair of speakers and an Altec Lansing subwoofer that I'd owned for over 20 years. Overall, they are an improvement but I'm a little disappointed by the lack of treble or high range.

We never expected speakers this cheap-okay, inexpensive-to sound this good.

Excellent sound; Great bass output; Inputs for three stereo sources; Attractive; Strong price/performance ratio

Hard-wired cables; Harsh highs nearing full volume; Plastic satellite cabinets; Won't fill a large room

Most speakers sound best when you're directly in front of them. This is fine when you're gaming or listening to music, but less ideal when you have guests. Logitech's Z523 2.1 speakers have two speakers in each satellite - one facing forward and one back - to project sound round the room.

If you're going to go for a Logitech speaker system spend the extra money for the Z623. I've had them before and they sound great. I had them for about 3 or 4 years before the cable started losing connection to it's circuit board.

The mid was strong and the very low end was nice; Controls were simple and clean; Knobs felt smooth and accurate

The highs and everything inbetween the low and high was muddy sounding except for the direct center of the hertz range; There was also a loud buzzing sound when no sound was being played; Hertz range of 90-120 was too punchy; Clarity quickly fell off at 600hz and higher and stayed at a poor level.

Solid equiptment with nice sound the only reason i didnt give it a 5 star is because i got it to connect to a blue ray player but there was no way to connect it. that was a little disappointing as it was my initial purpose for getting them as the product description made it seem that you could.

streaming video; playing music

Well, I'm not a mad test freak but having experiences with both the X-240 and Z-4 beforehand, I realised purchasing the Z-523's was certainly a lucrative decision because besides their slick look and compact subwoofer they combined both the punch of the X-240's (due to the downward firing driver)...

Compact System; Deep Bass; Sound fills the room; Volume Dial is convenient

Satellite sound could be a little more clearer

I'm going to have to give the Logitech Z523's credit where due. While they don't have the high frequency detail that my older Altec-Lansing's did, they have a much richer midrange that mates better with the sub-woofer.

- Rich midrange mates well with the subwoofer; - High frequency detail is present; but not pronounced/over-emphasized; - Excellent value for $100 on sale; worth the $120 regular price; - I have yet to overload the subwoofer

- RF shielding on right speaker isn't very good -- I had to move the right speaker over six inches from the LED monitor to eliminate a buzz/hum from it; - Cables are a little short; even for setting up on a desktop -- I have not an inch to spare; - Midrange doesn't keep up at higher volumes; leading...
