I always thought (still do) that being a hardcore gamer ment having a very good, if not the best graphics card around, a large TFT screen, a very good soundcard and a very good set of speakers. With this in mind i got my first 5.1 surround syst...

It took almost 7 years for Logitech to release the successor of the award winning Z-5500 and so i can actually understand the expectations people had from the Z906 system. Still people let's not forget that 7 years ago the same amount of money...

It doesn't matter how hard your earphones pound your eardrums with cranium shaking noise, you can't truly call yourself a power user unless you're ticking off the neighbors and scaring the hell out of the dog with a surround sound setup that rattles th...

Logitech put a lot of thought into the design of the Z906, taking aim not just at PC users, but home entertainment buffs too. Like the Z-5500, the Z906 can accommodate up to six connections at once, but the Z906 is far better suited for an entry-level hom...

The Logitech Z-5500 achieved an almost cult-like status among a certain slice of the computer and gaming markets, and for good reason: along with a fierce level of power, they were one of the few surround sound setups equally suited to both a gaming PC...

High quality sound for the price, Subtler, more home theaterready design, Multiple stereo modes; good 4.1 mode, Five inputs with simple setup, 5.1 Dolby and DTS decoding in the console...

Not a real revolution, Cable bundle still assumes PC users, Bright control console lights, Bass can slightly overwhelm treble, Simulated 3D a hitormiss prospect.

Speaker development is often a very conservative field, especially when you hit on the right formula and have little reason to change. Logitech could just has easily have left the Z-5500 alone or introduced a slightly different controller. That it didn...

Logitech’s Z-5500 5.1-channel speaker system was legendary for its beefy amp and beastly subwoofer, its plethora of optical and digital input options, and its ability to decode popular surround-sound codecs. The 5.1-channel Z906 speaker system taking...

Surround sound, a beefy subwoofer, and plenty of inputs.

Satellites have oneway drivers; no HDMI passthrough; can’t decode Dolby TrueHD or DTSHD Master Audio.

The Logitech Z906 Surround Sound speakers come from a long line of successful speakers released by Logitech over the past decade. The Z906 have some significantly large boots to fill, since the Z5500 were a spectacular set of PC speakers released 6 yea...

Crisp sound, punchy bass in satellite speakers, subwoofer is powerful, easy setup and usage...

Very bland design, all audio source connections are in the subwoofer, doesn't feel technologically advanced as there's no LCD monitor.

Volume isn't the only reason to purchase the Logitech Z906 speaker system. If you want a true surround sound experience and have a capable sound card to pair it with, this is the speaker solution for you. Remember, it costs a lot more than the model it re...

Each satellite speaker has sufficient power to fill a room on their own, Master volume control governs the overall loudness, but the console can manage the volume settings of each speaker or region separately from the master volume, The speaker system has...

Obviously, the speaker system is expensive. It is in fact, Logitech's highest priced speaker system, Tinkering with individual speaker controls and setting it up the first time can be a pain. Earlier models had a full LCD screen that made it easier to rea...

Having reviewed the Logitech Z623 some time back, we had some idea of what to expect from the Z906. Besides, the Z906 is supposed to be a decent improvement over the Z506 5.1 surround sound system, which was a fantastic speaker system on its day. While Lo...

Here we go again with another sound system review, but as with every review there's something special about this one.Movie theaters in recent years have begun to see a dip in visitors, mainly due to the fact that on demand and quality paid TV shows are be...

While I deeply enjoyed all of this rock and roll music and race car simulation sounds, it comes at a hefty price. Priced at $399.99 ($345.98 on Amazon) (Two-year warranty), this is a serious investment for most people.To answer my opening question of this...
