I've had these for 3 years or so and recently moved. I'd lost my instructions and this vid helped me a lot with setting it up again at my new place. Thank you.
If you don’t already know, you have to push the “Effect” button to where no LEDs are on. That way, you get true surround. Logitech are not very clear on this matter. 3D is only an emulated surround.
@@Guldfisken90 The one I have i love its the 2.1 version of this one and my previous speakers were also Logitech Ive always been more than satisfied but thats just me lol.
Have this setup in my gaming room but using it with my spare B&W speakers.... sounds awesome. Companies are neglecting 5.1 gaming speaker systems and focusing on headsets
I am thinking to use this on my gaming cockpit. How do u find the 3D sound? Can hear jet fighter passing or enemy steps behind u? Edited: currently i am using the JBL Sound Bar.
5.1 speakers will give u better sound stage than a soundbar… good thing about this system it uses bare wire connection to the speakers so you can easily hook up better speakers I sold off the Logitech Satellite speakers and using it with B&W MT1 speakers…i also use better speaker wires instead of using those thin ones that come in the box…u can hear the improved clarity
I'm still rocking the Z5500's since 2004. These are built to last and with volume and clarity. I haven't heard the Z906 system yet but I'll keep it on my list.
But as I checked, z5500 subwoofer and system specs seems to be much more worthy. If you compare the subwoofer of z5500 vs z906 and you can tell the difference. Z906 is like a eco version of z5500, though the DTS system version of z906 might be much more advanced.
I use it as a combined Surround-music system and I enjoy stereo music very well thanks to the 3D-chip. It sounds like a concert-hall with a very realistic touch. Movies are also very enjoyable due to the Surround capabilities. The Logitech z906 is a real market secret..! For its price, it sounds as good as very expensive stereo/surround amplifiers.
@@Vladdie777 i have the z906 and it can play atmos from my new TV which TCL C835. However from my old TV it failed. Something to do with the TV's capability also as it gets the right signal
For that money you can already have a really decent amp setup that you can keep upgrading. And added bonus, no updates which will make it eol eventually
I'm ordering two one to add to my setup with 11.2 speaker system and this 5.1 speaker setup for computer. I will use my computer settings to run to my receiver add this. Can't wait to hear the effects of the runner in the airport in the music from Floyd.
How do 5.1 movies sound with voices speaking? I use a Plex server and when watching a movie, the actors voices are super low and background effects are super loud.
I've it for about 7 years. Works fine. But thinking to upgrade/change to a Sont HT-S700rf. Basically because of connectivity and lots and lots of cables. Also I don't like much the central console. For gaming it is insane!! For watching live Bluray performance, I don't like it much. Sound get mixed.
Reckon UA-cam compression ruins it. There's not really a way to hear what they do unless we go to the shop. Meh, that's not gonna happen. Wonder if they are crisp when playing full on goatrance or metal or some wicked gangster rap with the bass.
No its basically my camera that ffed this up. It cuts out the bass so you can still hear everything. But I can tell you I listen to hardcore, hardstyle, dubstep and all sorts of bassy music and now my neighbors do too =)
which has better bass more bass to shake the whole apartment. JBL Bar 5.1 or this z906. I have the z906 but at even maxed bass level at full volume it dosent shake my whole apartment.

Hi, How do we know what it sounds like in your living room? Because we are hearing the speaker through your microphone. On our speakers. And our speakers might not be as good as your speakers. Pluss UA-cam lower the quality of the video and sound. To save money. As its using a bit less electric to send use the video.
when i first time saw these i thought another set of powerful pc speakers but these are whole new level like home theater?? price is low like usually one home theater speaker is 300 euros

Hey man can i ask you, i have logitech z506, and then i upgrade it to z607. But it was disappointed, cos z607 bass doesn’t big as z506. Then i wanna buy z906. Do you think is worth it? And do you think that z906 much better than z607? Thank you!
How would these hold up as party speakers in a basement? Would need to blast music while also maintaining quality / not blowing out speakers. I guess long term I'd like to use them as a home theater system and also occasional parties. Thanks
I gave away my Z906. It had powerful sound especially in the bass but it is far from an audiophile product. The vocals are very thin which makes it unsuitable for watching movies. That affects the listening experience for music as well
Is it possible to get 1. 5.1 thru optical from tv to z906? 2. When I connect gaming console to tv and get 5.1 thru optical from tv to z906?

If the formats used on the media you're consuming are DTS or Dolby Digital all of that shouldn't be an issue. Dolby Atmos and Spacial Audio are a different format and not specifically supported. So yeah you get those 5.1 through optical, if the format is supported. If the media you're using is 2.1 5.1 will be simulated. Playing music should be done through 2.1.

is it true that once the center console dies,its practically impossible to obtain a replacement esp. when the speakers are out of warranty,thereby rendering them useless?
I know why they say that, I found the problem/solution to that. The problem is the 3D audio setting for 5.1, this is because it emulates the '3D-sound'. If you switch it to 2.1 you won't have this issue (as far as I have noticed now).

i'm confused - u can't set the speakers individually as you said - like mine you can do the sub - the center and two satellite speakers but the other two get left out
You can change the sub, the center and 2 back satellites. I don't understand why you would change the overall volume ove the 2 front satellites? Thats what you do when you adjust your overall volume
I just recently purchased the same setup myself is there any noise distortion when it’s turned up loud? the system I have now is older and when I crank it up high they start to sound distorted
I honestly dare not to say since I only have it for a couple of months now. Everything still is working properly. My brother bought one second hand and he's happy with it and all is working. So maybe some people had just bad luck

Eeeeeen jij bent nederlands😂 maar ff serieus ik heb deze netgekocht voor 200eu maar kan ik deze speakers aansluiten in het groene audiojack ding op mijn monitor?
Ja dat is wel mogelijk, echter is het wel beter om gewoon de on board geluidskaart van je moederbord te gebruiken en daarmee dus ook alle 3 de jacks. Dit omdat je pc dan alle kanalen correct aanstuurt en de controller niet nog de splitting moet doen. Voor het beste resultaat zal ik je toch aanraden om het via een optishe kabel te doen. Hiermee worden gelijk alle kanalen correct aangestuurd
@@innerlights Sorry had je 2e reactie nog niet gezien, maar dan is het beste wat ik je aan kan raden om toch alle 3 de plugs te gebruiken of je moet een aux kabel halen met 2 tulp stekkers en een jack aan de andere kant. Dan is het geen probleem om het op die aansluiting aan te sluiten

I like this. It is smarter. I only hate how the centre speaker is a necessity. I wish that there were 2 speakers instead of the centre speaker because I use 3 devices on the same stereo system. So, I prefer the audio on all sources to be stereo rather than mono on the one connected to the centre speaker
To anyone wondering why the 5.1 doesn't work properly on PC you have to switch it to no effect it's when there is no light on any of the effects

@@ThunderThome Thank you, I was looking for this answer want to use it for my home theatre through optical
Can you hook this up to a smart tv
Yeah you can hook it up if the tv has the appropriate connections
i'm confused - u can't set the speakers individually as you said - like mine you can do the sub - the center and two satellite speakers but the other two get left out
You can change the sub, the center and 2 back satellites. I don't understand why you would change the overall volume ove the 2 front satellites? Thats what you do when you adjust your overall volume
What size of your TV?
Why does the size of my tv matter on a sound system video?
@@ThunderThome yes
why does it say 1000 watts on the box :D
4:55 - Don't get sick dude.
Hahaha put me in quarantine, i'm coughing =')
I just recently purchased the same setup myself is there any noise distortion when it’s turned up loud? the system I have now is older and when I crank it up high they start to sound distorted
Don't play music on 5.1, just use 2.1 for that
@@ThunderThome why
amazon has a lot of bad reviews on these do they really not last ? i bought an off brand audio system for 89$ it just failed after 5 years so like wtf
I honestly dare not to say since I only have it for a couple of months now. Everything still is working properly. My brother bought one second hand and he's happy with it and all is working. So maybe some people had just bad luck
I bought this system 12 years ago, sold it to my brother, he still has it and it plays flawlessly both for games and movies! I got my hands on this system again for free!! Cant wait to install it again :D 10/10 definately!!!
Try to connect Sony Xplode 12" car sub and listen the thundering bass
Is that the Antec 900 gaming case?
Hahaha yeah in the background, it's my old retired machine
@@ThunderThome I still use mine for gaming currently with an overclocked i5 2400k. I can play just about any game I want still. I'll eventually gut it out and upgrade it with a worthy GPU and graphics card worthy again. They just dont make cases with great ventilation like this so keep it as long as you can. I hear the 200mm fan at the top is hard to replace. It originally had a Pentium D in it...I'm showing my age now 🤣
@@bign1667 That's great to hear, at first I wanted to reuse it as well but then I thought nahh I'll just buy a new case as well. Video is on my channel of that new build. But the old system is rocking a q6600 with 8gb ddr2 1066mhz and a hd6870. Might reuse the case for a storage machine/server but i'm not sure yet. Please veel free to subscribe, more content is coming but I've taken a break since my girlfriend and I broke up recently (already shot 2 vid's but haven't had the feeling to edit them yet due to circumstances)
Not sure if anyone can help, I use via tv connected via optical. I personally put the setup to side speakers near me , now when I switch to UA-cam or now tv via the apps on tv it only goes to front. Works through back via xbox and live tv. It usually works has been and no way to change, anyone help?
How do I hook it up to my Xbox,
Kan je het niet in het nederlands doen?
What connection did you use?
I used optical (spdif/toslink) =)
ME: You literally recorded this on a calculator in 2020 XD
Even phone should do better than this.
HE: I recorded this using a Phone.
Music was faraway from thunderdome ;D
Is there a bass adjustment?
how to connect it with bluetooth?
There is no bluetooth on the device itself, if you want bluetooth you should buy a bluetooth receiver
met deze speakers kan je je buuren wel boos maken hoor heb het meegemaakt met mijne
Hahaha ja duidelijk, hele huis staat te shaken als je hem goed aanzet
@@ThunderThome haha ik vond je al als een nederlander klinken
@@1Robinjoo Hahaha de aap is uit de mouw =')
Eeeeeen jij bent nederlands😂 maar ff serieus ik heb deze netgekocht voor 200eu maar kan ik deze speakers aansluiten in het groene audiojack ding op mijn monitor?
Ik heb namelijk geen optical
Ja dat is wel mogelijk, echter is het wel beter om gewoon de on board geluidskaart van je moederbord te gebruiken en daarmee dus ook alle 3 de jacks. Dit omdat je pc dan alle kanalen correct aanstuurt en de controller niet nog de splitting moet doen. Voor het beste resultaat zal ik je toch aanraden om het via een optishe kabel te doen. Hiermee worden gelijk alle kanalen correct aangestuurd
@@innerlights Sorry had je 2e reactie nog niet gezien, maar dan is het beste wat ik je aan kan raden om toch alle 3 de plugs te gebruiken of je moet een aux kabel halen met 2 tulp stekkers en een jack aan de andere kant. Dan is het geen probleem om het op die aansluiting aan te sluiten
Is there in built amplifier in it?
Yeah it's a complete set
who is sheron chen?
Heey man hopelijk lees je dit, deze boxen kan je ook met een Bluetooth adapter koppelen toch ??
Je zou hem kuennen kopplen met een Logitech Bluetooth adapter en dan daarmee wireless muziek kunnen afspelen. Mocht je mijn content leuk vinden mag ik je dan vragen om te abonneren op mijn kanaal?
Omdat je t zo leuk vraagt
@@BroodjeMexicano Thanks! Het is aan het begin best moeilijk om te groeien dus alle beetjes helpen =)
@@ThunderThome je hebt helemaal gelijk, wens je in ieder geval alle geluk toe en niet te hard stampen he dit weekend XD
@@BroodjeMexicano Hahahaha thanks man! En stampen zit er voorlopig helaas niet in, gelukkig zijn de auto ritjes een feestje op zich =') Mocht je nog vrienden of bekenden hebben die ook geinteresseerd zijn in computers en tech dan kan je ze altijd hier naartoe doorverwijzen =D
Ou est la bass ?
Cool shirt, hack the planet 🌎 !!! Ethically of course.
Of is dat de laatste versie
Good vid but why record with a potato
Because I didn't have a better camera at the time unfortunately, I've bought a new one. Still got to shoot new video's though
Do you get surround 5.1 from PS3 from PS3 ?
I haven't tried it, since I hardly ever use the ps3 anymore. But I guess you can connect it through optic and then get 5.1
@@ThunderThome can you test it ?!
Can connect with my ps4 pro??
Yeah no problemo through spdif/toslink (optical), but you can also only connect it through your tv and pic up the signal from there =)
Dude you connect it to your TV not your PS4
You've got 2 optical connections, so I've used them both. But still I hardly use my ps4 anymore =')
Hello
I can buy a new one for around 230 $ is the Price good?
How much did you pay for yours?
About the same price =) you get a real banging system for the money!
You can pay as low as £140 ($120), but in current times that seems unlikely to happen. I got mine for £170 ($200) about 3 months ago and its worth every penny. Bass that punches you in the chest if you dont like your neighbours.
Where did u guys buy it from?
@@davidyanez3789 any where online.
I bout a used one for 60 $, it's amazing
@@davidyanez3789 I bought mine from amazon.de but also other webshops in The Netherlands sell it for about 250 euro's. Don't know for sure what the prices are around the world
The tv sound better! 🙂
DJ PAUL MAKE IT FUCKIN LOUDERRRRR
Exactly, untz untz untz!
TURN UP THE LIGHTS ! ITS DARK MAN !!!!!!!!
I like this. It is smarter. I only hate how the centre speaker is a necessity. I wish that there were 2 speakers instead of the centre speaker because I use 3 devices on the same stereo system. So, I prefer the audio on all sources to be stereo rather than mono on the one connected to the centre speaker
Ha, Not gonna lie. L techs do not sound to good compared to the tv speakers. You can hear a some lows but still not too much.
Each time you turn them on you can hear "pop" from speackers... thumbs down for that.
Sounds like a finger snapping rhythm wise...
I haven't experienced it since I have this set
Instead of playing some crapy dance music, play some Rock music like RUSH Tom Sawyer, or Thunderstruck by ACDC. Just way too much treble.
