To keep a long story short, I did a *few* surveys online and now I've come into a mini-wealth of $70. I had to wait for it to transfer to my paypal, and I'm currently waiting for that to transfer to my bank account.

Now, I randomly decided I'm going to spend my money on a 2.1 speaker system that I can use with either my laptop, tv, or iPod. I could have chosen any brand, but it seems Logitech has once again caught my attention for good products, as long as you can get them below MSRP, which is usually the case, provided you look around a little bit.

Initially, I was looking at getting the Logitech Z-4 speakers. Initial reviews were good, saying that even cranked to full volume, the Z-4 had no distortion, but after reading many reviews mentioning a want for more bass "oompf" from the Z-4, I decided to go for the Logitech Z-2300 speakers.

Both are 2.1 channel (2 speakers with 1 subwoofer) sound systems, and both come with a wired remote control that offers a headphone jack and a bass volume control separate from the master volume control. Whereas the Z-4 left many wanting more bass (even at full volume), the Z-2300 clearly puts out more "oompf" as one said that at 40% volume, he had more than enough bass. On top of this, the Z-2300 is THX-certified!

I am patiently waiting for the $70 to finish transferring, after which I will either order the Z-2300 from Amazon or Newegg. Amazon has a cheaper price, but even with having Prime, the shipping is equal to Newegg's cost with free shipping, for a total of $90.99, and a wait time of 3-5 (Amazon) or 1-5 (Newegg) business days for shipping.

Here's some pictures:

Is this just a public announcement, or am I missing something here?
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

lol, yeah, it's not the usual question-asking thread, just me making a "public announcement," as you put it, trying to occupy myself while waiting for the $70 to get to my bank account so I can finally get these speakers.

Well, Amazon is being dumb and keeps switching it from Amazon selling it to "Buy Now Inc." When it switches the price jumps crazily, so screw Amazon.  Besides, it wasn't Prime (aka free 2-day shipping) eligible anyways

So, Newegg has "won" my money, all $90.99 of it.  Just waiting for it to ship now; it will probably start tomorrow and get to me by Friday if I'm lucky (I hope so!), but most likely next Monday though

Anyways, I'm pretty excited, though the anticipation of having 400 Watts of House-thumping bass is getting the best of my patience.

Nonetheless, it won't be long before I have it! Can't wait!

OH NOES - I got mine and only the left output  works . Both speakers work but when I plug both in, only the left works. ffs

I guess this means RMA?

I assume you haven't activated the right one in your sound card's control panel...

Well, I'm sorry I can't help you figure out what went wrong with your speakers, but I do have an update for my thread!

Got my speakers today (in 2 days shipping - go Newegg!!!)!   Plugged in the 2 speakers and control unit into the subwoofer, plugged in the power cord, turned it on, and enjoyed breathtaking clarity and deep, undistorted bass!  Logitech wins me over with their products yet again
