Description
Immerse yourself in the game with adrenaline-pumping surround sound.
The 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 and a special clip lets you place the centre channel speaker on top of most flat-panel monitors to reduce desktop clutter. Use the wired control centre to control volume and bass levels or connect headphones to enjoy your games and music privately.

FDD2 eliminates uneven response created by conventional dual-driver designs.
Matrix mode

Innovative centre channel LCD clip

Suprising
Very good sound quality for the price, I was previously using a Pioneer amplifier and 2.1 speaker system, which cost over £300 until my amp blew. So i figured a quick cheap replacement to temporarily give some sound back. Although after using these for a while i'm more than happy, the higher pitched sounds arn't quite as good as my old setup but watching a movie is far more enjoyable as the surround sound is very good and sound moves across the channels very smoothly. Overall far better than anything i was expecting for such a low cost setup.

Overall Rating:
A great 5.1 system for buyers on a budget. The X-540's selectable matrix decodes 2.1 audio and transforms it into an immersive surround sound experience.

| Summary | You would be hard pressed to find a better performing 5.1 speaker set-up in the same pricing class as the Logitech X-540 speakers. The X-540s like a little juice to sound their best and you have to push the X-540s pretty hard before you start to hear ... |
| Pros | Good looking - Small foot print - Good performance - Great bang for the buck - Excellent control module - Strong bass and mid response |
| Cons | So-so treble response - Less than spectacular low frequency effects |
| Verdict | Are you ready to rock! The flash photos tend to over emphasize the drivers and make the satellites look gray; the non-flash photo is a better representation of how they really look. Ignore the wiring mess of my tech station in the background. The mini ... |
