Now thats a brilliant thread
what i concluded after reading the whole thread and researching on net is
Logitech z5500d is the "BEST 5.1 speaker setup" for:
PC users not having deep pockets right? alright means not extra deep pockets
I myself is amazed by the z5500 reviews that i ve made my mind for purchasing one.
Some of my concerns are:
Its available at amazon at $227.54
*www.amazon.com/Logitech-THX-Certified-505-Watt-Digital-Surround/dp/B0002WPSBC
and its available in india for 20K(quoted in previous pages) double price? why?
Its been a long time since its release so no company has got anything nearby z5500 in two years or the new ones aren't tested with z5500
and Goobimama thanks for your posts i got to know a lot today
"you said Just get yourself a Creative X-Fi music or something. Will cost around 7k. Don't worry, you can decide for yourself which is better, the soundcard or the Z5500...
Actually even an Audigy 2/4 will work just fine."
so whats the point in buying a high end card and for a while i would want to listen to inbuilt audio on 965 chipset and would i need extra cables? is there a huge difference if i use soundcard btw which soundcard is best then for z5500 budget around 5K extendable.
