Home > Consumer Reviews > Logitech X-530 PC Multimedia Home Theatre Speaker System - 70 Watt (Total) (5.1)

Has good depth volume sound but misses out on poor treble. For a small neat package this is it and worth it's value.

I bought these as the room my PC resides is small (8x6) and they are ideal for this size space. Sound is surprisingly gutsy for such a diminutive package and bass, while a little flabby, is generous and has good extension, especially given the size of the unit. The satellites do an amazing job. For the price this 5.1 speaker package is difficult to fault.

However, there is one small problem. If you like to keep things tidy the leads are a bit short (front ones are <2m and backs are about 4m) so you may find you need to extend them - I certainly need to.

If you use an on-board codec (like Realtek) you may find the woofer integration is poor as there is no option to adjust the crossover frequency (well, there isn't on my P35-DS3R motherboard anyway!). So my next task is to buy a decent sound card...

Overall, I don't think there's anything out there to touch these. Buy with confidence.

Bought online from my Amazon account.To play through my new Blueray dvd player.Pros. Excellent sound.crystal sound on midrange and outstanding base from sub.Easy set up.Very pleased!
Cons (semi).Rear speaker leads could have been .25m longer.Could not connect speakers to my tv,but not important, as I bought them for Bluray and dvd playback for which a well deserved 4 stars.

i got those few years back, they do the job perfectly for online gamming, watching moovies is nice as well, the only thing i dont like is that the cables arent long enough to spread them out as i wanted

another weird thing that was mentioned in the previous reviews is the foregin radio thing, i do get that sometimes as well, when u turn the sound to the minimum on the front right speakers indeed there is some weird woman talkin in some weird language and it sounds like from a different planet ;) 1st i thought it was ghosts or something so dont be scared :P

Easy to set up, simple to use.

Untill after only a month, both rear speakers stopped working. Contacted Logitech who said it must be my PC, only after three months of waiting did I get my money back.

Not reliable in my experience, you get what you pay for...
