I have always liked what Altec Lansing had to offer in terms of speaker packages and have used and recommended them to many. Their speakers in my opinion beat the competition in sound quality within a given price range.
Recently I have had the pleasure of acquiring some high-end keyboard and mouse for home as well as office use from Logitech, my impressions? Probably, one of the best keyboard and mice available at any price out there. They build quality products that are for those who are uncompromising or on the other hand finicky. I have also checked out some of the speakers offered by them and although was not in the market to get any, I had to appreciate their high standard of workmanship. The Z Line of their products received rave reviews and were considered one of the best in their price category.
Recently Logitech introduced their latest from the Z Line series of speakers and one of the models was very well reviewed at Tweaknews.net.

If you are in the market looking for the right 6 channel (with the works) speaker system, do audition this one!

Only two or so years ago Logitech was more known for making quality speaker systems targeted towards the economical market and for basic computer audio capabilities associated with OEM computing. But not anymore.....
With the past release of their Z-series line of performance and mainstream two channel and surround speaker systems, Logitech has built up quite a consumer following who just love their quality, workmanship and surprising power contained within their reasonably priced audio products. In the past we had the opportunity of reviewing their systems and had a hard time constantly picking our jaws up off of the floor when we cranked the volume and the pictures started vibrating off of the wall.
I'm serious about this, their systems although modestly priced, pack an audio punch that is unrivaled in the computer speaker system industry today. Some people might bawk at me saying "There are better system by Klipsch and other speaker system manufacturers". But I beg to differ, Logitech's line of THX certified systems overpower any of their close competition at a lower price point.
The Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speaker system I will be reviewing today is a very sought after system with audiophiles adding it to their short list of "Must Have" computer hardware for the Christmas 2004 season.
