Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:Buttons are flimsy and ready to fall apartHad two sets in 2 days, both cratered in under an hour
Pros:Sound was decent for a cheap 5.1 system Comment:
Bought a set of these because of the price point and I wanted 5.1 sound. There are a lot of glowing reviews for these speakers and I can see why. When they worked, they sound quite good, aside from a few minor issues (crackling/popping when adjusting volume on occasion, the cheap feel of power button and volume control). The problem is, I ran through 2 sets in literally 2 days. Both just lost power after an hour or so of usage. Not very promising, honestly. As much as I wanted 5.1 sound I'm at the point where I think I'll have to downgrade. Other 5.1 sets are out of my current budget and I don't have much faith in getting another set. Would give this a lower rating, but it won't let me without an order ID. So, guess the reviews are inflated. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:Cheaper than previous models, terrible for music, rear speakers are very quiet, waste of money...get z623 instead.
Pros:5.1 surround sound, Logitech brand, not too expensive Comment:
I'm writing this review to let anyone whose considering buying this NOT to buy it if you are going to listen to any type of music on these as it's terrible for music. Spend the extra $40 and get the z623 instead. Had I known how bad these sound, I would not have bought them. I had the previous model x530 for many years now and it sounds WAY better than these z506. The subwoofer is almost twice as large on the x530 in terms of total area. The satellites on the z506 has the exact same 2" drivers as on the x530 but you only get 1 instead of the dual drivers on the x530. The tweeter looking thing is fake as there's nothing inside it so you only get that 1 little driver making all the high and mid sounds which seem very dry and separated and from the weak subwoofer. Where as the sounds from the x530 and x540 was warm and unified, the sounds from the z506 just suck. It sounds like $30 speakers not $80 speakers. I don't want to listen to music on these. This is just a cheaply made version of the x530 and x540. If you truly must have 5.1 for games and movies and on a tight budget then it's OK, otherwise get the Logitech z623 or bet yet Corsair SP2500. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:only lasted a week
Pros:good value for the price if they had lasted more than one week. Comment:
These died for seemingly no reason after less than a week of very light use. I have not even turned them up past 30%. I was in the middle of playing x-com, when today all of the sudden there was a pop/slight crackle and the sound cut out. My sound card, computer, speaker cables or sound drivers are not to blame. Turning the speakers all the way up results in just barely being able to hear something out of one or two satellites, nothing I tried fixed it. I am going to return it immediately, and get something else. If they have nothing else I will give these one more chance, and if they break again will be asking for a refund. They were nice for the 6 days that they worked. I rated as three stars, as I don't have an order ID because I didn't purchase them from NCIX. These definitely deserve a 1 star though. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:-Bass control at back of subwoofer, and not on front right satellite speaker
Pros:-5.1 set at a great price-Central speaker attaches to the top of the monitor Comment:
I had my eye on a 5.1 speaker system and price matched this for $80. Though the surround sound isn't all that great, it's better than nothing.Having the centre speaker attachable on the top of my 27" monitor clears up much needed desk space.Many people had commented on the buzzing noise they experienced with this set of speakers but I am glad mine worked right out of the box. The only issue getting the 5.1 sound working was with the motherboard's audio drivers(some minor installation, reinstallation and tweaking of settings). I'm no expert when it comes to the quality of a subwoofer's bass, but this one's bass is decent enough for my needs.This set would have been perfect if the bass control was also on the volume control. However, the versatility of the centre speaker's positioning was more important in the long run. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:None
Pros:Value for money 5.1 Speakers Comment:
If you've never experienced true 5.1 surround sound, have a capable sound card and your content primarily resides on your PC, the Logitech Z506 are a fantastic speaker for you..with an excellent design and sound quality, the Z506 is an excellent surround sound set that’s also reasonably priced. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:- No wall mounts
Pros:- Looks great- Sounds great- Good mid range and bass- 5.1 surround Comment:
I bought this because my old 2.1 setup wasn't doing it for me anymore. I wanted something with a little more umph, but nothing ridiculous.I couldn't be happier, and I barely ever put it past 10% volume and I can hear it cleanly, anywhere in my condo.Very pleased with the sound quality and value. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:Volume knob is scratchy right out of the box.Power of the speakers is extremely poor.Subwoofer farts.Bass is weak.
Pros:Sleek, stylish looks.Sturdy design. Comment:
I purchased these to replace an extremely aged set of low-end Creative 2.1's. This speaker set was of very poor performance. The description says 75Watt RMS but actual sound output sounds more like 25Watt.The bass from these is nice at extremely low volumes but any sound level approaching mid-range the subwoofer distorts and cannot reproduce low frequencies even approaching 35Hz - let alone below 35Hz.The volume control made me quite irritated out of the box. Right from the first plugin, adjusting volume is irritating because there is a slight static when adjusting the volume.These speakers could not replace even an old Creative 2.1 set of $65 dollar speakers. I don't have time for RMA's and so I just put these on my kids Wii for extra sound.I would not recommend purchasing these if you are looking for bass and/or clarity of sound at even mid-range volume. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:- Crackling noise
Pros:- Sounds great- Unbeatable price Comment:
Purchased on sale for $79 and can't argue with the price/performance ratio. Provides satisfying bass for movies & games in my living room.However, has an audible crackling noise at ½ volume with no inputs connected. Googling indicates this is a common problem and a game of roulette.Inferring it was due to RF interference I taped a sheet of aluminum foil around the subwoofer which has resoled the issue. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:A few things i do not like about the speak system. 1. The controller for the speaker system is hard wired and cannot be disconnected,a feature i now miss. Makes it difficult to setup and hide wires.2. The speaker wires are not long enough,3. Matrix mode is horrible, i recommend not even using it.
Pros:1. Good sound quality2. great base3. the highs are decent but could have been better Comment:
Pretty good for the price, i got these to replace my creative megaworks speaker system that was about 9 years old and finally gave out. Not as good as my Megaworks speaker system, but its close and for less than half the price for what i paid for the meagaworks system. Over all good sound quality, base is pretty good to. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:None
Pros:Clear crisp sound. Comment:
These are great speakers. We have them connected to our TV, and it makes the sound much more clear and crisp (especially dialogue)than the TV speakers, or either of our 2 old sets of speakers. The (fake) surround is amazingly good when connected to the stereo. Highly recommended. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:This item is in stock and will ship as soon as possible. Usually ships in 1-2 business days. Was supposed to be shipped with Purloator , later find out its Canada Post. So far its been 5 daysby the time it does arrive it will be 7 days.
Pros:Paid with Visa, on 25th at noon... order was Shipped from Richmond on the 30th. Must love weekends. Its now Monday and on a truck. Comment:
If it says its in stock, don't expect it to be in stock even when they say, its May Day Sales event.. I am not happy, I could have picked it up and picked my nose at the same time. Next time I order anything the cost for shipping is on them. Or I simply wont buy it.The speakers, used them before, best ones you can get. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:Center Speaker
Pros:Great bassSub woofer Comment:
This is a great product overall, I purchased this product just for the sub woofer to add to my Bose Companion 2s and I ended up also using the satellite speakers as well as they are also very good quality speakers. The sub woofer are great,and the dedicated knob is also very handy in case I need to turn my bass down. However, the center speaker just doesn't sound up to par with the side speakers, I don't know if it is suppose to be like this for 5.1 systems, but it the sound quality is not quite up to par with the rest of the system as the sound from it sounds very muffled. |

Cons:cables can get a bit messy
Pros:pretty decently pricedcan adjust bass Comment:
Great speakers, you are getting exactly what you pay for, wouldn't call them the greatest speakers, but logitech does make decent quality speakers, wouldn't recommend it for playing music in high volumes but is neat for just your bedroom to listen to music or gaming |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:No volume for the rear speaker;no volume for the center speaker;You can see that it will last maximum 2 years, maybe 3 if you are carefull
Pros:Cheap, good sound for the price Comment:
Looks good overall, but you can't play with the volume of the rear and center speakers, wires seems cheaps. Decent sound for the price. I would not buy this if I am living in a house, good set for condo, since it's not "too powerfull" to disturb people around you. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:none
Pros:It is a great sound system, sounds crystal clear on louder volumes, Setup was very simple, very cost effective, Analog surround sound, great bass Comment:
Great for the price it comes at. it even has RCA inputs for those gamers out there. it's not TRUE surround sound with the RCA cables though, but that's a given. The speakers are plenty loud for everyday use, I never go above 50% volume, but I also don't like making my ears bleed.The bass has a control knob as well so you can set it to your liking. overall a great product for the price you get it for. |

Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Cons:Not Switchable audio inputs.play a game and watch a movie they both play over the speakers. Even though this is a powered woffer If your after bass you will find it lacking.
Pros:Easy hook up. Many differnet options and ways to hook them up. I can plug in 3 devices at once and audio plays what ever device I'm using. Comment:
Very good 5.1 pc or home theater speakers for a small space like a bedroom. For the sale price. At full price spend a little more and buy a better set. They do sound very nice but not fully robust. |
Bass stopped working without reason after a year of low to moderate use (I would rather use my headset most of the time) and I am not the person to set the volume or bass level high.I recommend buying something slightly more expensive NOT MADE IN CHINA; from a country with actual quality standards and norms. It's also annoying to try to fix everything is glued and the resistors were all bent inside. This didn't worth my trouble.
