Since I bought these to use with a program that creates 5.1 surround music, I quickly noticed that simply plugging them into to the matching color recepticles on my new Windows 7 machine did not work. I got sound out of all the speaker but it was not 5.1 surround. When I began shifting the sound to different speakers it was clear that something wasn't right. I could isolate the rear speakers almost totally but nothing else. I tried every combination of jacks (my computer is capable of 7.1 and has several extra jacks) but had little success. Something was always missing!! I then started searching the control panel of my new Windows 7 machine for answers. I found that the first mistake I'd made was plugging all the jacks in at once and turning on the unit. They had to be assigned one by one.. Here is how I set up the system on a Windows 7...

Updated with more info (1/31/11), By This review is from: Logitech Surround Sound Speakers Z506 (980-000430) (Personal Computers) I usually don't write reviews for products on here, but I felt compelled to after receiving the Logitech Z506 surround sound system. ***UPDATE*** (at the bottom) PROS: ~SUPER easy to set-up, everything matches up by color. ~Sound quality is superb compared to a lot of systems in this price range, especially for a 5.1 system. ~Base is FANTASTIC! I honestly can't get over how awesome the subwoofer is, and best of all -- NO DISTORTION! ~Since this is a tweeted system, you don't get distortion from the speakers like you would with a lot of other systems in this price range. ~RCA capable (meaning you can directly connect it to your Audio Out on the back of the TV). ~The ported down idea Logitech did for the subwoofer truely does make it fill the room (even at >50watts). ~Great bang for the buck. CONS: ~Wires can be a bit short, even for a small room. ~No controller. So if you're like me and...

I absolutely love, love, love these speakers! It's important your system is set up for six speakers but assuming it is I can say with confidence these will be the best speakers you will find in this price range. Check my reviews and you'll know I'm not gushy about products -- many people whine that I'm too harsh. Here is an important consideration, make sure your system has the speaker jacks AND the drivers to enable six-speakers, even when you are playing a stereo recording. Otherwise you will find yourself disappointed that the sound is coming just from the left and right speakers and maybe the subwoofer. Just because you have connections for the separate components doesn't guarantee surround sound. Fortunately, most recently built computers have the technology built-in so this warning applies mostly to people with older systems. A quick and easy way to know for sure is to check to see if your computer has Dolby Home Theater built-in. It's not easy to find... Read more |
