I swear to god i still use this baby up to 2020.
I still use mine Evan know it’s 2022
Mine is still working brand new but cannot put em loud now because of the community
2022 here
still using mine in 2023, gonna be using it for years to come.
just picked up a used set and am very happy 2024
The amp in these are really powerful, i am driving a high power 12'' subwoofer with it and it works very good.
same lol well i used too i dont really listen to music with speakers/subs anymore COUGH COUGH COVID EVERYONE INDOORS
My mate modified an amp out of the z500 and it made 350watt
I did not expect that to take what it did. Logitech clearly make some decent stuff!
I’d say If you’re getting used stuff in Europe Logitech or creative are the way to go
It’s a tang band driver lol. Lil beast
theyre tang band sunwoofers.
@Dark Dream xD No
@@stormmccree8238 It sure looks like one, but when you ask tangband about these they wil tel you that they didnt make it.
These subs are almost identical tho
Poor Molly just trying to eat her food
Just seen the tribute to Molly on his newest upload. Sorry Garret, I know how it is to lose a loved pet. My cat koko died in 2011 of feline leukemia.😢
4:19 cat: “why is this bowl vibrating?” 🐱
this IS port logitech
I have a Logitech 2200 its older but damn it hits hard for a damn 8 inch sub
@Cupid Stunt Sundowns are loud I have to admit but........... it sounds good for what it is.
Mine still work and i had them for more than 10 years
@Koti M Well damn....
I can understand people liking these compared to low end speakers and considering that you can get one used for less than 100 bucks it’s not bad
Jeremy Clarkson Hammond you idiot
RAZER CHROMA you
oh man i can buy them for 40cad all day around here and they never sell at that price
@@GarretClaridgeMeerkat Oh! Oh! You should buy a few of them and just mess around. I think it would be fun.
Any OG’s remember his first one when it came out
Ur average Savage That’s the video that introduced me to the lil Jon song Bia Bia
Just like yesterday bud!
LOGITECH HATE
Me!!
Ur average Savage i sure do haha
I still have a Z-2300 set, still sounds good! Didn't realize they were still popular, almost tossed it out a while back.
Molly was happy till the frequency went up too high for her food to catch. Great vid.
A pretty decent woofer they use

mach mal wieder blowouts oder bist du nicht mehr so an musik interessiert?

Da sieht man das Logitech Qualität enthält
The tubes, My ALL TIME favorite screen saver!!
Mine too.
Lets find a way to smoke weed out of the 3D Pipes screensaver, Preston
@@GarretClaridgeMeerkat May have been done already. lol
When required, potheads are remarkably inventive engineers.
actually have 3 of these drivers laying around. The woofes ive planned to use in an l-port designed box. and The transformer that comes in those are just AWESOME cause all ya gotta do is connect the orange and yellow one to a speaker. sending 40 volts through it and frying it. it puts up quite a show!
People ask me: Hey man! I gotta know what kind of speakers you got in your car!!! MTX? KICKER? JL Audio?
Ha! Ha! No. It's Logitech!!! That's right. The same people that make your mouse & keyboard are setting off every car alarm in the parking lot! 😂
You use a logitech Subwoofer in your Car?? Jesus...
The cats like, "Fuck you Garret."
The subwoofer driver itself isn't bad, but the internal amplifier and undersized box could be much improved on.
The amplifier has a built-in subsonic filter that basically filters out any frequency below 40 Hz.
This in turn makes the subwoofer sound rather poor.
Would be awesome to make a custom subwoofer out of one of those. Build a proper box and upgrade the amplifier to a much higher quality one
That's false, It starts filtering from 20hz down, and it stops moving completely at around 5hz. Only thing it keeps it from going lower than 40hz is the shitty box.
This is also not true. Below 30 Hz it starts to drop in power, but below 40 Hz it plays without issue in this box. Usually the room acoustics are an obstacle
6:23 after you're going upstairs 4 floors
Not better than a 20$ sub are you kidding? The tang band driver I already waaayyyy more expensive than 20 $. This sub goes very deep and is very nicely tuned.... It's not because it's written Logitech that it's a bad sub... Many Logitech subs are insane
false statement is false , its a big pizza sheet.
Garret the sub is actually decent
Have people heard of sundown audio
@@GarretClaridgeMeerkat It was about the last good sub they made, still have it to add some bass to some home made speakers.
Stijn van kampen the z623 is for His price good
Rip. Z2300 is underrated. The sub is good
I used mine to power DIY 6" 2-way bookshelf speakers in College. Sounded really good once you upgraded the satellite speakers it came with.
Yeah the satellite speakers were pretty forward to my tastes. The sub and amp were fine. Made a nice little 2.1 system for my dorm room.
@@tuckertastictk which satellite speaker did you replace it with
@@corens1033 my dad and I built our own boxes and crossovers. Had a 6" midbass driver and 2" cone tweeter. Believe the midbass were old radio shack drivers my dad had laying around. Everything else was ordered from Parts Express.
@@tuckertastictk When you can create a better satellite using old radio shack parts lol. Seriously, the woofers aren't all that bad but Logitech has a terrible habit of creating the subwoofer boxes out of extremely thin MDF, and using full-range drivers for their satellites without any forms of tweeters. Absolute BS. My 2003 Altec Lansings have tweeters.
All I want to say is, You just WOW and AMAZE me. Keep up the great vids. Have a great week
That speaker had a surprisingly large spider. :-O
Yes , large spider
?
Nyarome 2 spider is known as the suspension of a speaker. This large Logitech woofer(speaker) has a large suspension or a large spider,
thats what I was saying.
oh, i thought there would be a spider in there because of the age or something
@Martin M Hardly full range. I would be surprised if they create a frequency response of 500hz!
Getting over a hangover and this video made my day better.
The cat eating out of the sub was funny
Glad to know you still use subcorv's amazing music in you videos to this day
I've had one of these for over a decade and have had many other subs as well and surprisingly this sub outperformed some of the lower end home theatre subs I've had lmao(like the polk psw10 and some of the yamahas etc). The satellites are pretty trash though. I got rid of those and used to use just the sub with other gear I had at the time lol
Still a legend to this day been watching him since 2011
Logitech HATE! Episode 2. Wasn't that a similar computer speaker set he blew up in the first one?
haha same model !
YESSS!! The Hanna Montana guitar came back!... to be used as an axe!! Nice video hehe!
Man I miss Molly, wasn’t even my cat and it’s like she’s all of ours here in UA-cam land, funny how she doesn’t give one shit about the subwoofer and just eats the treats of it
They have a nearly religious fan base-because they produces oodles of volume and bass (you can power a house party with them) but unlike it's successor the Z623, the Z-2300 is also really well made, as you found out from dismantling it. I bought my Z-2300's 5 years ago and they were used back then and they've never given me a problem
the pipe background you had on the tv screen brought back some memories from like 2005 when i was like 5 and loved watching it on my parents computer screen. i had completely forgot it existed
To my surprise. There's some good quality guts in it. Toroid transformer, proper rectifier, big caps, etc.
Whoooaah nice flex...
Nice blowoooutt!
That is one strong speaker!
The screw driver part still makes me crack up
My goodness! That thing can handle massive wattage! Wow!!!!! My car subs couldn’t stand my 5000 watt DJ PRO soundtown amplifier (bridged Mode) blew in 20 seconds
That was the problem with this system the subwoofer was overpowered and the satellites were usually the first to go
godisgoodallthetime yea that’s the problem with Logitech. They tend to put an amp that overpowers the subs and satellites .
Wow Dad Subwoofer has a Good bass 0_0
"this speaker has a cult following"
> Blows it up
Didnt kno u were into anthro... that's cool always fun finding out your favorite people share interests
LOVE the color scheme of the speaker
why does dude destroy perfectly good speakers
4:17 Cat: This Is very Good! 4:23 Cat: But no Good idea from here
XD
thats some good flex there
I like how he says he may have to use a screwdriver but he uses it in a way we didn’t expect
Cat Molly is too adorable!
5:14 it sounds like a plane lol
garret have u ever tried putting like a 1000 watt woofer in of those sized ports? cause i wanna see if they will blow or not.
its probably gonna result in a lot of port noise
6:52 (takes dust cap off) (throws it onto cat)
xd
Still alive congratulation I'm impressed !!!! 😏😌
He also did one 7 years ago... Classic Garret!!
4:12 hahahahahahahahaha! Garett’s cat (AKA Molly) eats off the subwoofer lol
Good old memories of the 2011 video garret did
At the end you said "it does't sound that good." To be quite honest I am not surprised since you smashed the case apart and removed the bass port before you listened to it. I seem to think that is somewhat of an unfair statement.
I think it's fair, it's a relatively basic sub you can get anywhere for $20. It was revolutionary because it was sold as a turnkey PC speaker system, where 99% of everything is total dogshit. It even has RCA so you aren't stuck with their mediocre satellites. I have the 5.1 version, and I'm happy with it, but it's very much entry level in the world of floor-shaking subs.
@@emilybowman6415 at this price range you won't get any thing better than logitech...
@@yogenpradhan7503 For a PC-style split system maybe. A pair of bookshelf speakers for $100 will give much better sound and for some even more boomy bass. The big issue is putting them on your desk, of course, which is why split systems are popular.
@@emilybowman6415I have tried many speakers but they were no close of this logitech z906 ...
@@emilybowman6415 at $20 you won't even get mini portable speakers they also cross $100 if you are looking for a good brand...logitech is so clear it totally shakes the whole building..
The driver really isn’t that bad. Takes everything I throw at it
Beacuse you use the inbuilt amp
@@ALEXANDERWAKE because thats what its meant for
Great video, Garret.
Also: do they sell Baja Blast all year over there in Canada?
Our cat loves those treats too.... the chicken ones.
Put that in a t-line enclosure and you'll have a whole car flexing
look at my channel i have z2300 and 2 x 906
Dam!!! took a beating its soild!!
I like how he’s always happy it’s funny
Fuck yea, i waited years to see this.
Can see why they like it so much, not bad
The cat trying to eat food off the moving subwoofer was funny lol
Everybody gangsta until it sounds like a plane flying
I found this same set at the local thrift store for $10!! Money well spent.
Wasnt that um the store in pa near butler and kittanin or whatever?
Love this!
5:13 flashbacks
The mechanical noise from this sub was funny af. Love it when they take a pounding and still put up a fight, nice!😁
R.I.P Molly, I will miss Molly soo much😢😢😥😓
ik
WOW!!! It definitely WAS a good speaker! It took a lot to break it! LoL! Good not great! New subscriber because I love the method of destruction!
awesome sub, awesome vid
4:22 sinusidial wave operating automatic cat food dispenser :D
6:04 sounds like my washing machine lmao
This was uploaded on my birthday. Wooo
WOW!. my childhood radio cassette player at the back. Toshiba dynamic sound 3000.
9:36 The speaker is bottoming out
Wow I use to watch this guy blow up speakers years ago in my child hood. And I find him now by accident years later still doing the same thing. Bit sad if anything
hurrrr durrrr send a load of power to it free air hurrrrrrrrrrrr
Dont often use my z2300 but i've never bottomed it out and thats including pushing it pretty hard. I'd come into issues with neighbours complaining about volume before having issues with the sub not being loud enough and tbf for the money, the quality isnt bad
Also your point about car audio? Who tf uses it in a car ahahaha! Christ sake if u want a car audio sub go get one for that purpose and get a box built not some janky adapter or smth
"I might have to use a screwdriver..."
-cuts to using screwdriver as chisel-
Hey, look at the size of that transformer mounted externally from the amplifier module! Seems right next to the voice coil as it moves back and forth... why the hell not? I love how they have that, what looks like a metal plate to shield it... but they put it right there lol. Is that a common design choice?
@Martin M I thought that's what the fireworks were for...
Can't wait till you start messing with some bad boy stuff. 2” and above VC cast comp subwoofers. Plus would love to see what a subwoofer would do if you sent 250 + hz at 1000w power. Lots of noise and smoak haha
I laughed a lot when the cat tried to eat the food off the sub. Good blow!
4:39 its sounds like my tomos when it not wants to start
What laser was that in the beginning?
i had the z5500 back then i upgraded the stock speakers it came with to some old pioneer floor speakers i had it used to rock the house the subwoofers were the only decent thing about them
Magnet size, excursion and durability all seemed well.
Yeah, Logitechs higher end models like the z2300 or z5500 are pretty good. I just ordered a z5500 for 85 dollars. will be a nice upgrade for my room surround sound.
Is 12" 200rms sub louder enough to shake car windows? 600W Max?
very camera friendly 👌
I'll have no idea how this sounded with the crap I'm using at home.
Terrell Looney Low key tho? With the passive speakers of mine 😂
@@1_ElFox Nah, you have to have the best sound system to hear how clean and clear this speaker really is.
Terrell Looney Obviously
@@terrelllooney7322 It actually is really clean, there's literally 0 distortion. But it's not as accurate as some higher end stuff and the frequency range is not great either.
@@Randommmmm204 I know, just a call back to an older video he did with the same speakers.
Awesome
That little thing has some nice excursion
Might have to screw use a driver
Smashes it apart with the screwdriver
Maybe the cat wanted to get in the box.
7:12 hahaha cat go weee
Lol gotta love that cat
Blow it up! blow it up! YEEEEEEAAHH!🙌🙌🙌
its so funny :) i had fun thx
Honestly Logitech does make very good subwoofer/speaker drivers. This subwoofer held up power due to it is 8 Ohms. And the satellites are 8 ohms as well for this subwoofer.
Higher ohms are better also.
You should make a tube amp just to blow speakers with it
How did u get the can of baha blast
Great job, open the Logitech Z-2300 Subwoofer amplifier plate using a hammer and screwdriver, inside there is a subwoofer amplifier module.
