4.0 out of 5 stars Great Value, February 16, 2007

By	Dave T (Rochester, NY USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

I purchased the Z-4i's after researching computer speakers on line and listening to some. I decided on these, plus they match my MacMini.

They are a good value for the money; I paid $75. I did not want a big subwoofer, otherwise, would likely have gotten the Z-2300. I also considered the Altec Lansing VS2321 & similar, but liked these better for several reasons. I don't do gaming or have a real need for good audio with my computer, but just could not tolerate the MacMini's speaker, or the speakers in my Hanns-G monitor.

The Z-4i's should not be mistaken for a full, high-quality audio system. They are perfectly adequate as computer speakers. Sound is pleasant & crisp, plenty of volume available, nice and small and attractive. I particularly like the remote control that puts on/off, volume, subwoofer level, aux input and headphone output at your fingertips, independent of where you put the L/R speakers.

The subwoofer gets "boomy" at relatively low volume levels. I solved that by putting the sub on a stand to raise it off the floor.

Strengths: Value for the money; appearance; convenience.

Weaknesses: Boomy bass

4.0 out of 5 stars Great sound, great price, good bargin, February 20, 2006

By	M. McWhorter "David McWhorter" (Little Rock, AR) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this speaker system for the office, so I was not looking for something to rattle the walls and wake up the kids. I wanted something with a good base sound for mellow background tunes, and this system really delivers. I read the reviews that talk about this system not having the best mid-range sound, and I would have to agree. Certain CD's seem to lack a little clarity, but for the most part the sound is terrific! Bottom line, I was not looking for a state of the art digital monster speaker system, but I did want something that out performed the ordinary. After the rest of the office goes home and I am burning the midnight oil, I have been know to open the system up a little to hear what it can do... You can hear the thump of the sub four offices down, and the satellite speakers can really blast you away. Anyway, great speakers for the price, and I am positive you will not be disappointed with you purchase.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, August 12, 2006

By	Matachen "Space Tragic" (TX) - See all my reviews

For the price this is a great setup. Full bass, great treble, a touch weak in the midrange but its not bad, and for the price not bad at all. There is pretty hefty dose of power in these speakers, they can rattle the paintings on your wall handily. Setup is straightforward, plug and play. I really like the volume control knob: its unobtrusive and makes volume control on your computer much nicer, nice touch Logitech. Looks perfect with my Apple iMac G5 Desktop with 17" M9843LL/A (1.8 GHz PowerPC G5, 512 MB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD-RW Drive).

A good product at a good price, well designed and good looking in the bargain, with a reputation for excellent customer support. I'd buy it again.
