Me too!
Awesome sound, especially for the money.
I was gonna go all out and spend 400 bucks on the Klipsch Ultras. But I live in an apartment and didnt want to get evicted.

I love my 560's. They used to be so popular, now it seems like no one has them anymore.

The e's have black sub and different colloring (main color is black with a lil silver, instead of the other way around).

They also have a dif UPC code, whcich caused me to not get my damn $50 rebate.

My altec lansing 90W RMS 5.1 set are so much better (real mid range, not just highs and booming bass) than my z-640s, i hope logitech improved with the 530s?

I still have my 4 year old 560's (bought them new for $140) and love them! I recently picked up a set of Klipsch promedia 2.1's for a mini HT setup but the 560's are still my gaming bad boys. The Klipsch definitly have better highs and mids compared to the 560's (and the 5500's which I checked out at the store) but less bass though it is probably more accurate bass.

Enjoy those 5300's, they are definitly decent speakers and good for the $$

Hmmm, not sure if I would go that far. There is no doubt the Logitechs are a better value, but if the price was the same I think I would go for the ultras. That opinion is based entirely on the reviews all over the web that show the Klipsch with better sound and not my own experience though

Klipsch are overrated. I hardly use mine anymore. Thankfully I got mine during the price errors at CC, so I didn't pay anywhere near 400.

Now I just listen to the voices in my head.

I had 2 sets.. they have great mids and highs but no lows at all compared to the range on the Logitechs...

I love the built in DTS decoder as well...
movies sound freaking great with native DTS and a decent sound system..

both sets of Ultras blew the amp on me....

I like my music and movies LOUD and CLEAR.. and the logitechs are tough enough that they havent blown up yet or blown any speakers...

Surround sound, means the rear speakers are supposed to be BEHIND you. Unless you move em when u watch DVD's/ play games w/ EAX.

Nice pics. And since I don't watch too many movies on my computer, things work out ok for me.

Well, since the only speaker system I have actually owned that was greater than 2.1 was a logtiech I can't argue from a real great perspective. I just read many a review from sites all across the internet spectrum and the review that put the logitechs above the klipsh were few and far between.

The argument most have is that the klipsch lack the "boomy" bass but are more accurate, even in their lows. This seems to be the case with my logtiechs and klipsh but for me, that boomy is much better for games though worse for movies and music.

I am a fan of both (In my house right now are a set of Klipsch promedia 2.1, Logitech z-340's, z-560's, and a set of z-640's on loan).
