" ... This is a huge upgrade from a handful of Logitech speakers that I have owned, including the Z-5500. ... First, the clarity in vocals is outstanding. ... The sound equalization doesn't muffle the vocals especially from films. ... This means that I can decrease volume to not disturb the neighbors, yet still have a clear and powerful movie experience. ... If you are looking for a subdued case with excellent sound, pick these. ... "
" ... I'm giving them 5 stars based on what I would expect from speakers this size. ... I have them in my 2 car garage at 6 feet high and they fill the space with very clear and bold sound. ... "

" ... The trademark copper woofers and boxed tweeters look cool, although they lack the screw details of some of the more expensive models. ... Build quality seems average. ... The exterior finish looks kind of cheap, and some of the connectors don’t line up perfectly in their openings in the back. ... They look cool with the signature copper woofers ... No covers (nice to have, but they hide the cool cones), DIY rubber feet ... "
