Surround System

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a decent, affordable surround system, preferably a Logitech one unless there's better ones?

It will mainly be used for my Playstation 3 and the occasional film.

The thing to do is to compare frequency responses of different products provided you can find the information.

If you want a really bassy system then look for ones that start at 20hz or lower.

If you want high range treble then look for ones that go above 22khz.


Do you have a budget set? and are you worried about them being to low a wattage? or too high for that matter?

I don't know how much you're looking to spend Jase, but I highly recommend the Logitech Z5500 from Amazon at £170 with free shipping.

Lmao, I don't actually have that system, but my son does.

The system I have is the Logitech Z2300 2.1 system and I love it. But of course, since it's only a 2.1 system it wouldn't be any good for Jason's needs.

However, I do love it and the sound quality is amazing as is the power it pumps out. Talk about room shaking lol.
