Anyone have experience with their speakers? Something like the Z523? Looking some quality speakers in the sub-$100 category, and might as well do if there's a sale.
Also, it looks like it's at least a 40% sale on most Logitech products today as well.
No.
First off, $50 for a mono, unpowered speaker? No thanks.
Second, ceramics have terrible acoustic properties; there's a reason that both musical instruments and speaker enclosures are usually made out of metals, woods and plastics: they sound better. I'm not sure of the exact physics behind it, but I believe the plasticity of the materials gives them a wider range of frequencies. Glasses and ceramics are very brittle and, I believe, will tend to have a very narrow range of harmonic frequencies. This is why glasses and ceramics tend to only be used in instruments that make a single frequency: jugs and bells.
If you want unpowered mp3 speakers, I'd recommend these Sonys.
If you want great sound for under $50, get a Logitech or Altec Lansing powered 2.1 system like this or this.
If you want to save up for a top of the line set of speakers, you can store your money in one of these handy ceramic pigs. Nowadays it's probably safer than a real bank.
Here is what I would do if you wanted good speakers for a desk. They are a bit big but should sound really nice. This also tops out your budget so keep that in mind.
I would also look at some nicer computer speakers as an alternative. I know I'll get some hate for this but realistically if you want something closer to the $75 mark this your only option. Here are some sets I would look at.
How about this? It's a decent Logitech 2.1. It has 2 satellites and a sub. It's only rated at 40 watts RMS but it should be decent for use at a desk.
Budget: Between $100 and $200.

Just looking for something that will last a long time, and will sound amazing. The local Logitech 2.1 speakers lasted me for two years in Korea, but the subwoofer drowned out the highs a lot. Kinda looking for an upgrade.
As a reference, these are the ones I'm talking about. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Speaker-System-Z523-Subwoofer/dp/B002FU5QMK/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1396637406&sr=8-13&keywords=logitech+speakers
My girlfriend got me these, which I have really enjoyed:

They've got speakers out the back too "360 degree sound" or something that I don't really use so that you could put them in the middle of a room I guess, but they have worked well for my computer setup.

I have the Logitech Z523. If you love bass, it's a great system. If you like a more balanced sound, pick something else. They do fit your criteria though.
I have been using Logitech Z523 for the last couple of years as my desktop speakers and I must say they are quite decent.
Steelseries mousepad $15 (its huge and amazing) https://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries-QcK-Gaming-Mouse-Black/dp/B000UVRU6G
Logitech speakers $59.99 (there are cheaper ones around $30 but I got these 2 years ago and I am biased) https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Speaker-System-Z523-Subwoofer/dp/B002FU5QMK/ref=sr_1_15?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1482326653&sr=1-15&keywords=logitech+speakers
Good luck !
Oh ok. Could you answer my question though please? I kinda flipped to these. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Speaker-System-Z523-Subwoofer/dp/B002FU5QMK/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1374087070&sr=1-1&keywords=Z523 What would you recommend?
I have some ancient Creative I-Trigue 3400 speakers that I've been using for nearly 10 years now. Would the Z523 or Z623 be a noticeable improvement?
I used to have this speaker system. I must say the Logitech 523 system is significantly better, for not much more money (at full price).
Edit: This Z313 system used to cost $60. It seems it is now significantly cheaper, even without a sale price.
I have these: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Speaker-System-Z523-Subwoofer/dp/B002FU5QMK/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_2_2
They are cheaper than the suggested Klipsch ones, and I don't know how they'd compare. For me they are plenty loud, though I guess if you're asking for loudness, they may need to be even louder than that. I usually keep them at about half volume and am already afraid of bothering the neighbors. The bass is nice and boomy. When I play Bad Company 2, the explosions seem very realistic, and shake up my room.
Sweet! Current optical I've only used a handful of times, one of which was to install the OS ages ago. Nice to know about the fan.
I bought the 750W PSU a year ago cuz my last one broke and based on the quote from the website I'm not using anything near that. Regardless, I plan on keeping it.
Ah, good to know about the mounting. If stock is good enough, I'll just skip the bigger fan then. I take it there's no issue with ordering one off amazon if I really needed one anyways.
I think the ones I want are USB but am not sure. Was looking at the Logitech Speaker System Z523 with Subwoofer (link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002FU5QMK)
You said A headset, but yeah I could. It's just hard to find a good headset that comfortable that has a good mic or any mic at all. It's also kind of weird wearing them for a long time because it gets hot and my ears feel weird. I also get headaches often.
You see these logitech speakers are only $50
Rarely use headphones unless it's v late at night, got the Logitech Z523 speaker system with subwoofer.

These are gonna be your best bet. I have them and they are great. The sub woofer is very powerful and is never shy of power.
I'm not much of an audiophile, but I use this with my computer/xbox setup and I have no complaints. I like them because I think they sound pretty good and they're fool-proof/easy to set up.

Probably the best bet under $100. If you were willing to spend more, I would definitely have different recommendations for you! :) Hope this helps, let me know if you don't like those or want something different.
EDIT: Link with Prime; added some more links.
Also, these (for a little bit more money) would be MUCH more solid.

And if you want a 5.1 under $100 (I prefer 2.1 for PC speakers)... here is the best one.

There shouldn't be that much difference between the Z337 and the Z4, so long as you don't use the Z337's via Bluetooth (Bluetooth audio = garbage).
The suggested replacements for the Z4 would be the Z523 or the Z533.
Logitech Z523s
They have great sound. I mean, they're not studio monitors or anything but for day to day music listening. They're fantastic. :)
The sub sits under my desk.
Ive had several, and In my experience you get what you pay for. I have a set of BOSE Companion 3 now and they are fantastic (albeit more expensive). Whatever you get, you should have a separated sub-woofer and 2 higher range speakers, so 3 pieces total.
Try these Speakers
I'm going to college soon and I wanted to get some good speakers for my dorm room. I'm into EDM and I've confirmed my roommate is too, so I want really good quality ones with great bass.
My friend got the Logitech Speaker System Z623 and I was very impressed when I heard them. I want something like those, but I'd rather not have the $100+ price tag. I mean if I really have to, I'll get those, but I'd rather not spend that much.
I was looking at the Z523 and the Z506, but I guess they aren't as good. But is the difference noticeable?
I asked my friend and he said a good way to tell the quality of a system is the frequency range. And I guess the more watts, the better bass.
If anyone could recommend some good ones for a good price I'd be grateful. Thanks!
If you're into bass like I am, I use Logitech z523's http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Speaker-System-Z523-Subwoofer/dp/B002FU5QMK/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1406449598&sr=1-1&keywords=logitech+z523
bought my first one and was completely satisfied, got my table shaking a bit. I bought another set second hand that was like completely new for 30 bucks and then I couldn't live without them, my PC came with logitech LS21 and so im using a 7.1 channel setup but down have a centre and bass. I'd rated it 10/10 but I haven't tried other speakers so im not really reliable
Fair enough - but a cursory glance at amazon, and if you're looking for 10'' woofers you're spending this guy's budget a least a couple of times over and that'll still only get you one speaker which I think we can all agree on is just silly. I said a subwoofer isn't optional because at the price point, the speakers you're going to be looking at just aren't going to have the size or power needed to get decent sub-bass. Honestly, if you want something super easy to set up and won't break your bank I was using these logitech speakers for years until I bought my stereo set up. Loads of volume, and it has a bass knob you can turn down if neighbours are getting pissy.
Atm, I'm trying to shoot for something ~$100 (hence why I ignored the suggestion at the top), and had ideas of a few. Here are 2 of em, what's your opinion?
