Logitech Z-640 Speaker Set Review @ 3dXtreme

Now I have gotten this press release 3 times during the past week so I'm hoping if I actually post it the emails will stop.

Anyhow normally I wouldn't post a review on speakers since the best speaker system for you is chosen by you and you alone. Granted reviews might help you learn more about them but really all you need to know is already posted on the speaker mfg’s. website. Now you could head down to your local computer store and take a listen to what they have and compare prices but keep in mind they won't sound the same when you get home, so what is the best way to shop for speakers??

Look at power output, frequency response, speaker configurations, subwoofer box type, and available sound inputs.
Here is what to look for:
-Higher power = better sound due to reduced distortion.
-Wider frequency response = better sound range and quality.
-Configuration = 5.1 is pretty standard but look at how you want to use your sound system. (i.e. do you even have a place behind you to put the surround speakers?)
-Subwoofer box type = if you can see the woofer you'll have a wide range of sub base frequencies but it won't hit as hard as a bandpass design (you’ll just see a port) These designs have a narrower frequency range but have awesome power. (I won’t go into speaker box theory at this time)
-Available inputs = if you have digital outs on your sound card make sure the speakers have inputs for them otherwise you will be stuck with analog.

Make sense??
