Writing this as I'm pretty upset at one star reviews from people who have obviously not read up on what they are getting before they buy. These speakers need 3 x 3.5 jack inputs (rear, centre/SW and front) from your 5.1 capable sound card. If you just plug in front speaker cable from your stereo sound card (laptops etc) you will only get 2 channel sound and only front speakers will work. This is not a fault, these speakers do not upmix in a similar way to Pro Logic, they don't have that technology. You need the updated x-540 or current Z506 which have matrix mode, or to use all 3 wires on a 5.1 sound card and enable speaker fill or some other upmixing technology on the sound card speaker settings if it has it. That said I will now review these awesome speakers. I still use these and they're old but still as awesome as the day they were bought. They sound amazing with movies, games or music. I can't praise them enough. I am no audiophile but £70 spent 8 years ago has been an amazing investment and I do love my music so these are used on a daily basis. I have just bought a set of z506 speakers for the bedroom but a lack of wall mounts on the updated model means the x-530s will remain my main lounge surround speakers until the day they give out. I love them that much. This model is getting old now, been discontinued yet I still see no reason why a good set that have been looked after can't last many years still. That's high praise indeed.Read full review

I always thought logitech as the cheaper option for general goods but after buying these they will be my first choice every-time!! These sound amazing. Much better than pc speakers iv seen for £200+ the bass is brilliant and crisp and the speakers offer a fantastic surround sound feel to anything! They come with an adapter so all speakers are in use even on a stereo sound card of only 2 channels the only issue i had was the rear speakers cable is very short but i got 2x 20m extension phono cable for about £4 so very happy ps the newer models of these dont look as nice and cant be wall mounted so these are better and they look amazing both on and off the wall, they mount easy with just a screw in the wall and twist the stand round to the back an you just hook on and off took about 5 mins to mount them allRead full review
Excellent and powerful system given it's compact size. As a surround sound experience it's very good but I would say it could be slightly better if there were variable EQ settings (tone control). Plenty of bass as standard (this really rocks the place). All round, for the money and compact size a great product. I have them installed in my garden shed and for playing music they're just the ticket.

My brother has a 2.1 set from these speakers, so I planned to buy something like those, but I choose the 5.1 system. This speaker set is one of the best, what I have ever heard! Clean and powerful sounds with a big bass! Altough these speakers are not enough shrill-toned for me in low volume. Even so I enjoy the dynamic of these speakers. I reccomend for everyone, who likes the great and clear sound!
