I hope Logitech are bringing out a new model soon, these have been around for a while

Probably less demand now with soundbar and all-in-one devices. Would be good too see one with HDMI inputs.

i ordered few weeks ago, yesterday my soundblaster z arrived and the volume/sound quality dramatically improved over standard integrated sound card. Now the system sounds well nice and the volume is actually scary. Hate your neighbours? Get one!

I have been using my Logitech Z5500 (the previous model that was replaced by the Z906 in around 2011) for nearly 10 years now and it is still going strong... Still can't find an excuse to replace it yet.

completely off topic but I have the Z5500 but I've never found a suitable stand for the rear speakers. How have you guys solved this problem?

I got my Monoprice stands when they were about £8 per pair (amazon.co.uk/gp/…5D4), but the price has gone up a lot since then...

I hang them on picture hooks around the room so act as a surround sound each set on opposite walls and the other speaker on one of the other walls.

Had my Z5500 system for a long time but had so many issues with it. If something does go wrong with these 5.1 systems, it's very hard to get a replacement part!
My system is useless now that my control pod doesnt work.
Logitech are not interested in helping outside of a warranty.
The sound from it is incredible though.

Same here, wondering there is still no better speaker set on market than Z5500 :smile:

I have had the same Logitech Z5500 and they have been great for many years apart from being very sensitive to electrical interference, so if someone turns the lights on in another room i will get a pop sound through the speakers. Have you ever had this? Or when i shutdown and start up the PC they make a popping sound. :disappointed: Other than that they work fine and are crystal clear speakers :smile:

This is a steal. Nearly the same price I paid for the baby brother 2.1 version z623 a few years ago. I don't know why I'm so tempted because the Z623 are more than enough and then some. Enjoy, to whomever pulls the trigger on these.

I bought the Z623's for £80 last year during an amazon lightening deal. Incredible sound. Jealous of anybody who purchases this gem!

Would this set be much better although costs nearly £50 more
