Logitech Z5500 for XBox 360 (Any pics?)

Faded · 15 Dec 2007 at 19:14

Looking into investing into these for my XBox 360 and was wondering what other peoples setups looked like.
This is due to the fact that my room isn't exactly huge and my TV isn't very far from where I sit and play my 360, which is my bed (meaning the two rear speakers would probably have to sit under it)
Will I lose the advantage of surround sound because of this?

i have a box room with a set and they are lovely

get you a pic in a min

Pic i took t'other week

Behind the chair is my door - to give you an idea of how small my room is!!! 2 speaks are mounted either side of my bed behind me, and the front left is just out of shot as it sits on the original xbox

Cheers mate, just realised I may have an issue with how the close the sub would have to sit to the TV/360

The other half of the room is about the same size but I would like it all set up by the TV. I was hoping to use the space beside the TV for the sub.
Do you think I will run into any problems?

I cant give you a pciture but i have mine set up with my PC and 360 (optical and analogue) and they're brilliant. Control center is especially useful for late night gaming with headphones.

The sub is quite big that was about the only thing I had trouble accomidating.

Not sure it would be close but the sub is shielded as far as i know, but bass isnt directional and thus can be anywhere if you could get it the others ide of room?

Yeah don't worry too much about where to put the sub

Metalface Mark · 15 Dec 2007 at 20:03

Have you considered the 5450's? Perform pretty close to the same as the Z5500 but with wireless rears.

I had a set for my 360 setup, i might have some pics around still.

I just want to hide the leads as much as possible so wouldn't really want to have parts all over the room if it isn't 100% necessary.
May have to look into rearranging the layout of my room then

I also use these, they work great for the Xbox360. A good, cheap solution.

Psypher5 · 15 Dec 2007 at 23:59

Psymonkee · 16 Dec 2007 at 00:05

Will post them if Iremember

Faded · 16 Dec 2007 at 01:22

It seems like quite a few people have these. :cool:

Doug · 16 Dec 2007 at 02:01

They're pretty popular, I've been thinking about picking up a set, too.

Look like good value for money.
