Logitech Z-5300e...


Hey all!

I have gotten a total of $300 USD from my dad and relatives combined.

And I was thinking of using part of it on this:
Logitech THX Z-5300e 280 Watts RMS 5.1 Speaker ($135 USD) (560watt max)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16836121121


I cant buy the Logitech Z-5500, well because for 1) I would have no money left, and 2) I actually have $250 USD cash, because the other $50 is a circut city gift card and I wont buy speakers from them because their price is FULL, and I dont want to carry 70lbs in the store, hehe and 3) i want to save the left overs for a new video card.

Neways, does anyone here own the Z-5300e's, and how good are they compared to, lets say my X-530, and how much worse are they compared to a Z-5500?

Ok, I LOVE bass, i want super bass and i want good respone for the money. Like when there is wind, or anything that triggers some sort of bass i want to hear it hehe. I'm sure the 5300e will do fine with bass, yet im not so sure about 'response.' Like when you play music or game from a z5300e, does it sound strong, clear, and crisp (for a person comming from x-530?). Also is it constant bass response, that smooth feeling and deepness? Ok, I myself don't need them to sound instrumental, and i do like low mids, deep bass, and crisp highs for contrasting and deep sound, and not 'muddy' mids.

So any comments on those speakers, or alternative (i NEED bass), I like muy X-530s, they are tweaked quite well for me(they pack quite a punch for those things), yet, i want more power and more bass response and deeper ones muwahha, and that 'true rumble' during movies heheh. My room is quite small, yet i will try to place them as best i can (sub placement is CRITICAL), so anyone had experiment with this compared to the other logitech speakers?

Oh, I use a Sound Blasyer X-Fi XtremeMusic btw.

ty for help!

i bought my z-5300e's about a month or two ago and I love them. The sub packs a lot of power, as you've probably read in the reviews. I had to turn the bass way down to keep from getting a head ache. Btw, if you want to save money for a new video card, you can buy a refurbished z-5300e on eBay for about $75 including shipping (mine was practically in brand new condition)

It can't go really high, at least not like FEAR or something where hundreds of fps are attainable.

but let's stay on the topic of speakers here.

well I previously had a 9600 Pro (close enough I guess) and when playing CS:S, I could only run it at Medium-High w/ somewhere around 20-30 fps, but when I got my 7600 GS, I could play it on High with about 40 fps. you could say it was pretty decent

sorry for getting off topic
