Buy Logitech Z-2300 THX-Certified 200-Watt 2.1 Speaker System (Silver)

I bought these speakers today after trying out and returning Bose's Companion 3 and checking out multiple other speakers including the Companion 5 in our local Circuit City store. For my taste, the Logitech Z-2300 speaker system outperforms all current Bose computer speakers, Bang & Olufsen's ridiculously overprized Beolab 4 and every other speaker set I listened to in many stores over the past weeks. They produce a nice, rich sound across the entire frequency spectrum even at low volumes (at very low volumes the remote bass volume adjustment may come handy but is not necessary to get good sound). In particular when using them as computer speakers (what they actually are) sitting in front of the computer, I do not have problems with the midrange (but did with the Bose speakers). The satellites are a little large but this provides the benefit of larger diameter mid tone speakers, warranting better midtone performance than the Bose speakers, for example. The high wattage pays off not only when playing the music loud, but also when listening to low volume music, which is what I like most. The power of the system allows even weak signals to drive the speakers well, resulting in good low volume performance. All in all, these speakers deliver excellent sound comparable to much more expensive Stereo/HiFi systems for a very reasonable price. They definitely are the best 2.1 computer speaker system I have found for the demanding listener who does not just want loud noise, but rather a good, rich music experience. They are appropriately priced (less than half of the Companion 3 and ~20% of the Beolab 4) and come with 2 years warranty for some nice peace of mind. I tested them with rock, pop, blues, jazz, folk and classical music and they performed well for all of these genres. Definitely a 5-star system (unless it'll break down soon). Only criticism: The remote cable is very thick and the remote a bit too light, so it easily slides on the desk. This is a low price to pay for great speakers, though - as those are really hard to find these days, since manufacturers appear to focus on increasing Surround channel numbers rather than improving sound quality. The Z-2300 system fills this gap very well.Get more detail about Logitech Z-2300 THX-Certified 200-Watt 2.1 Speaker System (Silver).
