| Logitech Z5500 Digital Speakers are one of the
most powerful 5.1 surround speakers in the market. These speakers
are best used with a hi-def sound card or the gaming consoles. It
can play almost any high quality audio format. The subwoofer is
really huge and heavy. It took two of us to lift the subwoofer itself
to set it on a desk. It is amazing how our previous sub woofer looked
so small in fronf ot this massive subwoofer. When played a music
in Dolby Digital Prologic II mode, the sound came out to be so powerful.
We connected it to Playstation 3 through Optical Cable and tried
playing Movies with Dolby Digital Codec and the sound quality was
just amazing. The sound quality showed its THX certification by
providing sound like in theaters. But here the movies should have
a Dolby Digital format in order to get true 5.1 surround sound effect.
However even with the
common MP3 audio codec the sound quality is the best.
It has many formats depending on the type of connection. When connected
through Optical cable to PS3 it has Stereo, Stereo X 2, Dolby Digital
Prologic II Movies and Music modes. In Audio Setings for PS3, you
will need to select all the formats that the output device can support
and when the game is started it will automatically take the audio
format of the game. Almost all the games have Dolby Digital sound
in it. But the sound quality of the game Army of Two was pretty
impressive. InFamous however had DTS Digital sound and it had a
great surround effects on these speakers too. These speakers made
watching DIVx format movies interesting. Even the movie which you
have already watched will be worth watching again with such a sound
quality. |
