 Brilliant All Round August 29, 2010
A. Hampshire (England)
These speakers are excellent, very simple to set up (the diagram in the manual tells you what to plug where) I was up and running within 5 minutes. Matrix mode is very good for creating 5.1 sound from 2.1 audio. The control center thing is very handy and adjusting volume feels nice with the large dimmer switch, it sits nicely within reach on my desk, plugging headphones into the jack is handy too. Most importantly the sound these things make is great! Good quality Logitech build, feels like they will last. All of this for a very fair price, highly recommended.
 the speakers... August 26, 2010

these speakers are a great purchase for their price tag however they are not the best for instance when they are set to a low volume level the sound quality is compromised and when they are on a very high level there is some distortion as well however they sound great on a medium to high level volume setting and are perfect for listening to music. there is a neat matrix mode which means you can change an ordinary 2.0 sound input like an (ipod or pc)into a 5.1 output, i am not sure how it is done but it is very easy to do as there is a little button on the wired remote which you simpley press down and sound comes out of all 5 speakers! I would recommend these for gaming and listening to music however they would not be a great choice for home cinema.
a small problem is that you cannot change the length of the wires that connect the main bass box to the speakers as they are wired into the back of the speakers, this has caused me a problem as the wires are too short and i could not place all the speakers where i wanted them' however an easy way to overcome this is to buy 3.5mm jack extensions
worked for me so far for 2 years and still sound great August 21, 2010
liverpool rule ok (uk)
still the best around for the cash and are still going strong after 2 years of constant usage on my pc. sometimes get some strange sound feedback when i first turn them on but not always i think it works if youcan keep the power cable away from the speaker cables to reduce the noise. works great on the x-fi sound card as it is quality sound and the wall mountable stands are ok. the rear cables are very short so you will need to buy extenders to use them on a shelf behind you. this will be a good buy for any music mp3 fan or computer user in the home office.. as very heavy bass you will hardly need to turn it fully up on the bass switch as i can kick some punch..next door thought there was a joy rider at 1.00 am one morning racing round the close...but it was me.. i was up playing a racing car game online as it really sounded like a engine and wheel screach was coming from out side it was so real life. to injoy 5.1 suround sound, use a x-fi sound card from creative... not the rubbish onboard sound you get installed on most computers.. try it for yourself....and blow next door out of the beds at 1am.....
 I'm hearing layers to my music I never knew existed... August 16, 2010
Mr. George Edward Maier (Ilkeston, Derbyshire, United Kingdom)
I brought this system primarily for music - I use the matrix mode to push a 2 channel signal down every speaker - works wonders!
I do some 5.1 work also, but I wont dwell on that too much, just take my word for it being perfectly up to scratch - read other reviews for a more in depth look at the true 5.1 performance.
One issue I do have with the matrix mode is that not much sound comes through the rear speakers, it would have been nicer to have it a little more balanced.
The cable lengths could do with a few extra meters - but it's good enough for me. At least this way there is less to tangle.
I listen to ambient and post rock music a lot. Possibly over 70% of my music listening time is on there genres. My favourate artist is Jonsi - especilly when he collaborates either with his partner Alex Somers or with his band Sigur Ros - either way his music had a lot of energy behind it, and created a very rich, vibrant sound. I'm hearing layers coming out of certain tracks that I just never knew existed. I'm hearing depth in tracks like Howl and Sleeping Giant - and power in tracks from Sigur Ros.
This system has brought my bedroom to life with sound - I highly recommend it.
4 star rating is down from 5 due to cable lengths and low power in rear speakers on matrix mode.
Amazing bass and clarity for amazing price! August 10, 2010
Ernestas Kaminskas (London, England)
Got these delivered 2 days after order, came in a well packed box blah blah... the speakers actually looked alot better then on the internet, they all look stealthy/modern and go well with a black monitor etc. the setup was easy with colour coded wiring etc, a monkey could do it tbh. each speaker comes with a decent stand that has rubber grips on the bottom to give great stability. the speakers do have a angled pivot which is useful if you want to wall mount or free stand them. the sound quality itself is beyond acceptable with great deep bass and clear satalite speaker response. they sound alot better than my old 40w satalites that came with a £200 system. the control box is very handy especialy with the matrix function which makes cool use of all speakers when playing 2.0 audio. bass control is very easy using the control box. only things i can point out is you will need extension wires for the rear speakers if you decide to wall mount as the wires provided are only around 3-4 meters. for 54.99 you wont get anything better. also for those having a hard time choosing between x-530 and this get this, it looks better and has the control box and matrix function, defo worth the 5-10 pounds.
