Main plug always wears out
This speaker system and every other Logitech speaker system I’ve bought – the main plug that goes into the subwoofer always goes bad.

Excellent Audio System
I purchased Logitech Z560 over 4 years ago and have loved it ever since. There was one minor issue with it not long after I bought it, but Logitech was very quick to send me…

decent, for the price.
logitech now makes a 5.1 set(with more powerfull satelites), where they seem to have corrected the design problems of the z-560.

These speakers are awsome
I bought my speakers refurbished, even though they’re refurbished I can not complain. I love the way the bass sounds. The highs are clear and there is no distortion.

Worth every penny. Use it right, it will work great.
I bought mine refurbished(…). I figure mine is probably one of the unit some dim bulb blew out, and Logitech fixed it.
I have the volume turned up 60% on my PC.

It goes BOOM!
Great speaker setup. It’s wonderful. I love them, and hate to listen to music on anything but them.

High-Quality Speakers
I bought these speakers in December 2003 as an early Christmas present to myself. I was intending to buy a cheap 2.0 speaker setup for my Sony CD walkman.
