Rating: - Great for the price
When i was looking at reviews i really wanted to know how long the cord to the rear speakers were. So im posting this to let people know. The rear speaker cords are 14 feet long.
As far as the rest of the system, the speakers are amazing. I had a cheap pair of 2.1 speakers before and these blow the doors off of them.
Rating: - Wow Sound!
Wow, what sound. Very impressed with the sound quality of the Logitech X540 system. Do wish it had longer speaker cables. Great bass sound and good surround.
Rating: - Solid, but not the best
These speakers were easy to setup, but not the best. the subwoofer is extremely underpowered, and the bass/matrix adjustments are useless. it wokrs well for a small room, and even for a video game console. the sound seperation and quality is very good, except when you adjust the bass too high it gets staticy. at about 25-40% of its peak is a good spot.
the cords for the front two speakers are a bit too short. if you place the woofer on the ground, it will barely go under a desk and reach above your head when sitting down. the center and other two speakers have a good length of cord that can probably go about 7.5 feet high if you need them to. the way they hang on the wall isnt the best, but it works. the base of the speakers twist to allow you to hang them or place them on the desk. the only bad thing is that the balancing of the weight is very poor. it looks like this is a common design for all of the logitech speakers. the nail is placed at the bottom of the speaker, while all of the weight is above the nail. as for the monitor mount in this set, it works extremely well with my LCD screen. it hasnt moved at all and is in an extremely good spot.
overall they are worth the 50 bucks i got them for, but if you really are looking for something that is a good quality and has the overall movie experience, i would look at getting the 5300 or if you want top of line 5500 from logitech (they are thx certified and the subwoofer is over 200 and 500 watts respectively vs. the 70 watts on this system)
i am overall satisfied with the product, and i enjoy the quality and ease of use with the remote. i just wish the front 2 speaker cords were a few feet longer.

note: the speaker for the subwoofer is on the base of the speaker. meaning you will need some cardboard or something to set it on if you have carpet.
Rating: - great
awesome product. great sound clarity. easy to install. the rear spkrs don't make much difference if you don't have a 5.1 sound card o/p. great for the price. highly recommend it.
