  Duration of ownership: 1 Year

  Strengths: I paid 219.00 for the Z5500's and it was the best purchase I have made in a long time. They sound out of this world. All the inputs and extra's make these a must have. You will not be sorry at any price.

  Weaknesses: None, None, None

  Overall: If you like Music, Movies and just loud music buy these , your friends will love you , and your neighbors will hate you. I have my DVD player, TV, and computer all hooked up to the Z5500's and it's a whole new way to listen to TV, music, movies.

  Duration of ownership: 3 Weeks

  Strengths: Superior sound quality, easy connectivity amazing bass, digital soundcentre simply kicks @ss!!

  Weaknesses: goes tooo loud and my mom tells me to turn it down :P, but i guess thats not logitech's fault

  Overall: (true story) I have an old lady that lives next door to me and my room is considerably close to her house. I decided to crank up the system to full, blasting lil jon and the eastside boys. now an important factor of this story is that the woman next door is utterly deaf. The next morning the police came to my door about a noise disturbance, but what had actually happened was the vibrations from my bass had caused the old ladies paintings to fall off the wall! needless to say that this system is soo awesome that it will piss even deaf people off! A MUST BUY!!!

  Strengths: These Speakers ROCK! My 5-Star rating is for the speakers, not Patriot PC Outlet.

  Weaknesses: Too Expensive from a store who "Proudly Serving Those Who Serve Proudly!

  Overall: Hey, you can get these same speakers from TigerDirect.com for $259.99. Newegg.com has the same speakers, but costs $302.99. Either way, both are better in price than here! No, I did not buy from here,

  Strengths: Bass is amazing, Quality is very good, although my first set, broke, the terminals on the subwoofer shorted out, so I ended up with a 2.1 instead "sigh" I hear its common though

  Weaknesses: Since there isn't a tweeter, its pretty bad listening to piano solos and guitar, like real music Doesn't sound that great, their reallllly loud, and good for gaming, dumb and bass and thats it =/

  Overall: In short, its really boomy, with alot of bass, some clarity, but if your an audiophile like me, I wouldn't buy them, I would just go with a Klipsch or the Creative S750's because these aren't good for anything other than bass and gaming.

  Strengths: clear sound, thummping bass, many add on's

  Weaknesses: no hdmi

  Overall: i have read dozens of reviews on the logitech z-5500 and watched many vids on youtube too, one or two reviews said the bass was too heavy, while this may be true if you have a half decent soundcard you can simply control the bass with the software. the speakers look great, the control panel is the size of a brick with a big fat dial to control the sound! the sub is i think one of the biggest you can buy for the pc, the sound on call of duty 4 is awesome...tiger woods 2008? not so much. great value for yourmoney am using the z-5500's for my home theatre. logitech have made a great system.

  Strengths: pshhh every thing about this product is strong. They made their newer model weaker because of this product. This is like the old hot rods. Too strong for the streets. But they had their time.

  Weaknesses: lol none

  Overall: If you can still find this product. Get it. Logitech is trying to push their 7.1 system which is less strong in the bass department. Eventually it will be gone. I got mine for $250 2 years ago. It is much cheaper now. GET IT!!! This thing will literally hurt your ears. No joke. It can cause pain in your ears and eventually give you a headache that lasts a while. Also it could damage your hearing. And after all that is what we are looking for aren't we?

  Strengths: Crisp, clear, incredible sound, loud LoUd LOUD, optical input, remote control, quality construction with great looks, handy control modual.

  Weaknesses: A bit pricey

  Overall: This device, coupled with my Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer sound card can really make my windows rattle! The only problem is that my wife won?t let me use it to its full potential while she?s home =( I was not expecting the subwoofer to be the size of a dog house, but I guess that?s what you need to get the huge sound that you do! I use my system mostly for gaming and the surround sound, crisp audio, booming base, and directionality is awesome! Now that I?m playing games with the new sound card/speakers, I feel like I?m hearing whole new games.
