3 out of 5 stars Decent sound for the price.   July 17, 2008
This speaker set is a good value for the money. The sound from the satellites is not the most crisp for music, but good for gaming, it's main target audience. It seems to lean toward heavy mid-range, rather than higher frequency highs. The bass is a bit muddy if turned up too loud, as the subwoofer is not really large enough to handle big thumpin bass. But it is good enough for some serious bass in movies.

I recently had the big amp on my set of Creative Gigaworks S750 7.1 surround speakers set burn up after 5 years of heavy use. That system had 700 watts of power - 210 for the sub alone, and is without a doubt the best computer speakers I've ever heard. Even better than Klipsch 5.1's, of which I'm a big fan. But at $499, I was not happy to find out the Gigaworks amp burning out is a common problem with that speaker set, so I opted for a more disposable set that wouldn't upset me if it burned up.

The G51 is a solid value with decent sound, but audiophiles should stay away. If your budget is higher, go for the Klipsch 5.1's.




2 out of 5 stars No midrange - muddy, clipped bass   July 12, 2008
I bought these speakers because I am currently living in an apartment and couldn't rationalize spending a fortune on speakers that I would never be able to use at any kind of high volume. I am disappointed in these. They are not the worst speakers ever, but I have serious issues with the lack of midrange (even with extensive tweaking). The speakers are light (never a good sign) and feel cheap. The bass is clipped and muddy. I would not buy these again.


4 out of 5 stars good   June 30, 2008
Reasonable price, sturdy, good cords, easy setup. Testing on the computer gave a lot of static noise but none noted during usual use. Very convenient controls and off switch on extension cord.


5 out of 5 stars awesome speakers!   June 28, 2008
Bought the G51 5.1 system a few months back on amazon and love it.Awesome sound range,fun to tweek along with an x-fi soundcard,a little advice,if you hook this up to a 360 directly you might have issues with the rear speakers being disorted and cutting out.After emailing logitech i was told this setup is meant for a 5.1 soundcard i ordered the x-fi platinum and rca adapter and all is cool now.The Z-5500 5.1 THX is next on my list!


4 out of 5 stars Requires a bit of tweaking   June 26, 2008
As others have pointed out the cables on the speakers could be longer, I had to extend two of them to get everything connected in my small office. Overall the speakers sound good, although there is definitely room for improvement especially in the mid-range. It would have been nice to see a larger element in the the satellites. The control module is fantastic, well weighted so it stays where it's put and provides convenient control over the system. Having the headphone and mic jacks up top is very convenient.
