Understanding 5.1 Type Sound units for Home Pc Sound
If you spend a large chunk of your time (like I do) with your Laptop or Personal computer, and you watch a lot of movies or listen to music, a 5.1 multimedia surround sound system would be an enchanting companion.
Granted, your PC or Laptop came with in-built speakers. The reality, however, is that most computer speakers produce poor quality sound. But you deserve the best, seeing as you work hard. Thus, if you decide to indulge yourself by buying a high- end speaker system .who can be unhappy with that?
To help you choose we'll explore some salient points relating to two models--one is expensive, while the other is affordable.
.
" The Logitech Z-5500 THX-Certified 5.1 Surround Sound System
This is one of the most expensive models available. It retails for about $380.You'll also need optical cable (6 feet) for about $6.The system is more than enough for all your movies, music and gaming needs. Its sound quality is amazing.
Forgive me, I ought to explain the meaning of "THX certified" before we proceed. It means the sound being reproduced by the speakers is faithful to the way it was originally recorded in the studio.
It is a certification based on rigorous industry standards, which validates the fact that the speakers are producing sound at its optimal level. THX is an acronym for "Tomlinson Holman's experiment." Sophisticated audiophiles consider this the certification to look out for.
The Logitech system produces premium quality sound (with no distortion, even when played at high volumes), it allows you to connect 6 audio sources (like TV,PC,Video game.) and it really is a "true" surround sound system (5.1).The cables are optical/coaxial.
I know you can hardly wait to rush to the store, but, remember 5.1 systems take up space and you may need a sound card upgrade (for your computer) to enjoy this phenomenal system.
It's the best.
" Hercules XPS 5.1 70 Slim 5.1 Multimedia Speaker System
Relative to Logitech's, the Hercules is slimmer and cheaper. It retails for about $150 or less. It comes with three audio cables (for connection to your computer system), a power supply and documentation.
The satellite speakers are thin and tall, while the subwoofer is big. It has all the needed connections. It comes with a multifunction remote control. The center speaker comes with a flat panel mounting system (thus you can hang it on your monitor, for example).
Total power: 70 watts RMS (4 x 7.5 W (satellites) & 1 x 15 W RMS (center), 1 x 25 watts RMS (subwoofer)). Peak power: 140 W. Frequency response: 30Hz 20 kHz. Its control Knob has three functions: bass and volume control, and to switch it on and off.
It can be used with the following devices: PC, Netbooks, Mac, MP3 players, CD/ DVD players, TVs, and Game consoles.
The sound quality is very good, relative to the price and it does not occupy as much space.
So, pump up the volume!
