Which Speakers To Use (help)
« on: April 14, 2005, 11:15:00 PM »

uhh.gif What would you rather have and why? Im trying to debate which i should buy. Either the 5.1 xbox spherex speakers (300 total watts) or some Klipsch ProMedia 5.1 Ultra's (500 total watts)

spherex - http://stage.spherexinc.com/products_xbox51.aspx

klipsch 5.1 ultras - http://www.klipsch.com/product/product.aspx?cid=712

plus the ultras are like 60-90 dollars cheaper

both have excellent reviews.. <

Logitechs z-5500's are incredible, I got'em. I was thoroughly impressed. check out some of the reviews.

EDIT:

From what I saw the Spherex's are cool, but I believe you are paying for the Xbox name.

Klipsch I did not look hard but I did not see any optical input or even an decoder? are you going to hook your xbox up? or is this just for the computer? also the z-5500 have a 10" sub instead of 2 8" (from my experiance i think that 10" subs sound good, 8" cant get very deep but do indeed have a punchier sound, but this is all coming from someone who has a 15" bass guitar amplifier.) anyways, the z-5500s has a optical, coaxial(Digital), and computer/or 3 seperate stereo inputs, and another stereo input. it comes wiht a remote, backlit lcd, it can decode DTS96/24 Dolby Digital, has a headphone output and is also THX certified....there is some things to look at about it.

Good luck
