chosing pc speakers

I want to upgrade from my old creative inspire digital 5500. Looking at Logitech Z506 / Logitech X-540 / Creative Inspire T6200 to connect to my pc and maybe my tv. All 3 have 5.1 surround. Which one would you recommend and why? The price is more or less the same.

or would you recommend any others in the same price range?

:welcome: clnek, where are you looking to buy them from? Amazon?

- the multi connection options are a definite bonus ..

I've looked at them because I do really like the look of them... but I'm struggling to think where I could place the subwoofer, since it needs to be a metre away from any electrical equipment...

sorry, 60cms away

hhmm.. actually, having looked at the manual the only thing it talks about is 6 inches space between the cooling fins and anything - gaz, any comments? - how have you got it set up?

I have the subwoofer behind the TV stand, more than 6in from the V+box.

The overall sound is ok, powerfull, but the bass it's typical American "wooooof" not British controlled "boop"
