Product DescriptionThe X-540 speakers use FDD2 (Frequency Directed Dual Driver) technology to produce a uniform soundfield anywhere in the room. Immerse yourself in the game using the selectable matrix mode, which automatically creates 5.1 surround sound from common 2-channel stereo sources. The compact satellites are wall-mountable, and a special clip lets you place the center channel speaker on top of most flat-panel monitors to reduce desktop clutter. Use the wired control center to control volume and bass levels or connect headphones to enjoy your games and music privately.
What Others Say
X-540 Review
This speaker system is pretty awesome. It sounds great - the sub wolfer is awesome, and the Matrix button disperses the sound through the 5speakers very well. I definitely wouldn't compare it to a good pair of Bose speakers but I definitely think it's clear enough (play w/ the EQ if needed) and worth the money - easily.
Great Deal
This is a great system. Its loud (and clear too), has good base, the speakers are flexible, the wired volume switch is unexpectidly useful, and the "matrix" mode is a decent substitute if you only have 1 channel audio (i.e. plugging it into a laptop).
I used this system for my dorm room and it was awesome. It would probably work well in an office or bedroom. I don't think I would get it for a home theater.
Very good
I'm glad that I bought Logitech 970223-0403 X-540 5.1 Speaker System (Black). Now it's been 1 month since I got it; I had no problems with it.
Good Buy
Sturdy and great sound appear to be durable. I really like the fact that the volume adjust is not on a speaker like other models but that it is a separate entity. Very please with the software and its many features. Overall this is a great buy for the price.
Great speakers for the price.
Positive: Sound is very good overall. The speakers are loud and the subwoofer is respectable for 70W. Decent bass too. In the $50 range, you cant beat the X-540s.
Negative: The controller and the speakers themselves are somewhat cheap-looking. They look really cool in the advertisement but are much less remarkable in person. I've seen better designs but I guess you can't ask for too much in this price range.
Word of caution: if you don't have the space to set it up 5.1 style, don't place the rear satellite speakers in front of you. This set-up jumbles the sound due to the interference and will sound terrible in "matrix" mode.
