Logitech Z623 400 Watt Home Speaker System, 2.1 Speaker System - Black

Bought my Logitech Z623 last year albeit 2nd hand. Excellent when it works fine, very loud and ace for mixing etc. Trouble was a few months later the sound would flicker badly then the bass stopped altogether. I opened up the sub box and the sub is fine but the subs amp is not. Cheap shoddy circuit board within the sub box so be warned. Small speakers still work but nil bass. Bought another used sub box from europe but this has different inputs on the back of it. The uk model has dvi female on the back and german model has dvi male. Speakers i have are male so male to male will not go unless their homosexual which they arent. So had to mess around and find a female to female (lesbian) adapter. These subs are supposed to be 120w and the whole system 200w rms but the amp in it doesnt last if you have it loud.

No one in their right mind would buy this at this price. There are dozens at half the price and even if they only last half the time you can get a new one at half the cost.

If the speaker goes into standby, it needs to be turned off and the again on, or you won't get any sound, even if you start for example Youtube.

el artículo llego bien antes de lo previstos y al ponerlos a funcionar pues muy bien sonido como se esperaba y poco tengo mas que decir buen potencia es como me imaginaba son de los buenos de logitech muy satisfecho

Tonight, I got a scare -- these speakers, which I've loved for the short time I've had them (i.e., since mid October), sounded tinny and thin. I checked the connections. I rebooted the computer. Still tinny. Then, it occurred to me (my mind must be slowing down) that no speaker problem would speed up the music. Aha! It was my Enounce program -- a program that lets you listen to audio at up to 3 times its normal speed. I had it set for 2X normal speed after listening to a tutorial by a drawling presenter. I set it back to 1X the recorded speed and, voila!, the music was back. So, since I had found myself more than willing to write a damning review of the longevity of these speakers, I felt it only fair to write a review of just how good they are. So, that's why I'm adding yet another 5-star review of these things. What's not to love. Their sound is outstanding. You can set the bass levels to where you want them -- and the bass is not that terrible boomy stuff of boom boxes and miserably made speakers. It is, rather, crisp and unobtrusive. The mid-range is clear. And, for all my aged ears can still discern, the highs are there. (Alas, when younger, my hearing test for the Air Force had my hearing right up there with dogs. Well, not quite. I couldn't hear a dog whistle. But, I could hear the highest tones that the hearing test provided making my line slightly above the chart. Now, I know, some of the higher frequencies are lost on me.) Volume is no problem. While those who are deaf and those who aspire to become deaf may not find the higher volumes sufficient, most who would rather hear music rather than test their pain tolerances should be quite happy with these. Could they be better? Well, perhaps I might welcome both: a) left-right balance controls and b) a remote. The former can be handled by software that's already on your computer if you go hunting for it. The latter is for those who build up a heckuva lot of static electricity while sitting on a cold winter's night. I'd rather discharge it on the remote than risk zapping the speakers. That age thing, alluded to already you may have noticed, might at any time get me to forgetting to discharge any built-up charge on the case of the computer instead. You could spend a lot more and do a lot worse (sorry Bose). But, why? My musical preferences: jazz, classical, some folk, and a handful of individuals who fall into none of these categories. So, if you're interested in hard rock or the alleged thoughts of rap "artists," you may well want to move onto another review. With computer speakers, it has been my experience that few last for all that long. But, these do appear to be made well. So, I'm optimistic that they will continue to perform well for some time to come. ========================================================================== Unrelated tip: That Enounce program is a freebie and well worth installing if you take courses or listen to tutorials or simply want to race through ads that won't allow you to skip them. It does a good job of speeding things up without making the voices sound like Mickey Mouse after he inhales helium. ========================================================================= Another unrelated tip from John Templeton (a legendary investor): The fastest way to double your wealth is to double your gratitude. Without gratitude, there is no possible perception of wealth.

Overall Best value for money and best sound , slightly less on features, but still give it full marks -as does main job as speakers excellently. I have used three speakers thus far 1.Fenda 330 bt= 56 watts RMS= Bluetooth , Bass control, but no USB or memory-awesome value for money n cheapest.Failed on one IC being out switched 2 to 1 Audio in. Great buy still on reliance digital for rs 1999.Nothing can beat this young beast in terms for value for money. Though its a discontinued model. 2.Logitech Z-623 =200 wats RMS, simply mind blowing, THX Certified , lovely bass at low volumes , unbeatable price at rs 9000 from cloud tail-amazon...Go blindly , if your budget is for up to 10000. Nothing in the market at that price comes closer to it at the moment. Sadly no bluetooth, USB Connection , only Aux. But best music in market at that price. No doubts. looks like an model soon to be outdated , hence selling below at MRP Price of rs 16455. The build quality of speakers is rich premium feel-awesome 3.LG OM4560- After I bought Logitech Z-623 above , a week back , wanted another speaker in lieu of my ailing Fenda model above. I am neither a music buff , nor a techie , but an ex guitarist and a layman , who like s all kinds of music and appreciates good speakers. This speaker sounded good and was advertised as 220 watts RMS at chroma wrongly , where I went in to listen it. Plus the reviews on Amazon India n flipkart. LG has come a long way indeed. this is a small boombox and good for a 260 sq feet room but music wise way below bass on logitech Z-623 above. The areas where it scores is , Bluetooth,USB, One single unit compared to other 2.1 channels , beautiful led changing lightings , n mike of ahuja make , which came along with it from a local store -which gave the best price at rs 14350...Online the price is expensive. better buy from a local dealer who is cheaper than online and vijay sales, chroma , sargam etc..The things which go against this is -not a party speaker n low on bass compared to above and may be others in that price range. And a hefty price tag at 14350. Is it value for money ???? I have some doubts , but my kids aged 20 and 22 , do like modern day features , like blue tooth , n mike , hence a keeper. 4. Tried sony sa-d100 4.1 channel speakers-100 RMS (rs 8490-loca store) and Fenda F& d 3800 fx 5.1 channel with 80 RMS and reliance digital Reconnect electra at reliance show room. While Sony is good at rs 8500 in Reliance digital , F&D is value for money. Reconnect is okay on bass and VFM but doubt on after sale service and parts , hence out of equation. I have listened to many sets in showroom and read a lot of reviews , as am a guy who researches on his electronic toys before buying..In terms of ranking , here it goes.. 1.Logitech z623-undisputed champion on bass and clarity -THX certified-Old model though, but nothing beats it..especially for party occasions. 2.Number two LG OM 4560 -If money no problem , as host of good features and remember is a single carry on unit. LG's FH2 Model is an alternative with equally good sound and can be carried as with built in trolley n has rechargeable battery too.This is not a party speaker , good for room sizes up to 250 sq feet , but definitely behind logitech above. 3.F& D comes third , though best value for money , but is a chinese company and we normally would avoid a chinese product these days , though they offer good variety in lots of 2.1 and 5.1 channel speakers. 4. Would avoid Sony- least good looking and very costly after sale maintenance. Sony has taken Indian market for a ride ...and penalised Indians for loyalty , not shown else where in world. The parts are expensive , services charges are exorbitant. stay away from a sony product , unless you are a diehard sony fan..My best wishes then. 5. Where to buy-Amazon and flipkart offer good choices and reviews , with Amazon slightly better on prices compared to flipkart in terms of prices and questions answered , no where on any other e-commerce website. where to listen the speakers personally- Croma,Vijay sales,Sargam -for live performance , but not to be bought from these big retail chains as too many overheads and will not bargain. Best to buy from local exclusive brand stores , unless its a lighting deal from amazon or flipkart. Hope you enjoyed my fair review and have no interest in any brand and wrote basis experience.Thanks for your time.

Bought the Logitech Z623 on discount at S$149. This is an older legacy model but the sound quality remains top notch. The bass is superb. All the controls/knobs being located on the right speaker makes it very convenient to adjust things - even the amount of bass. This is more practical than the newer designs where Logitech provides a separate hockey puck for adjustments, or other models where the bass knob is located on the subwoofer.
