Logitech z2300 with aftermarket satellite speakers [sound bass test]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 лис 2018
- The Logitech Z-2300 2.1 active speakers system replaced with replacement aftermarket satellite speakers is undeniable best from Logitech 2.1 stereo setups. Just watch this video music sound and bass excursion test without subwoofer grill for logitech subwoofer. I have upgrade stock satellite speakers to little bit louder, because stock small fullrange driver speaker can't beast as loud as sub. If you find second hand logitech Z-2300 under $100, take it, don't regret, it give amazing good price/performance. This history of 8 inch bass drivers began when Logitech choose Tang Band as the OEM manufacturer for their first THX certified multimedia speaker system Z-560 way back in the year 2000. It used direct off the shelf 8 inch Tang Band W8-670C with rated power input of 80W, maximum power input capability of 150W having a max excursion capability of 7mm.

Is the z623 better than the z2300 when it comes to bass?
@@Afura33 z2300 use bigger speaker driver and bigger box, z2300 have better bass. Not a lot, but have better.
@@Techscrews thanks for your reply

One of the best shopping decisions of my life, I couldn't be happier with these, have still stock system, only had to fix controller a couple years ago, but everything works perfectly. In my opinion the best 2.1 system, has a lifetime in my place :D
Bought this speaker years back. They still sound great. Bass is still crazy, but I need to do what you did and replace the satellites with “fuller” sound speakers. Have them connected to a vintage system with a record player. I wanted them so bad back then that I wrote a bad check to Circuit-City!!!
Have had mine since launch, i love them, thx for upload.
lucky, the z2300 is best logitech 2.1 system.
@@Techscrews They are Epic :)
Ive been still running this system for 10 years 🙏
I love this Logitech z2300 series speaker
I have had this set since 2006. Connected to a computer, where I listen to music, movies, and games. If someone today decides to upgrade this system, namely to change the satellites to something more advanced (since you don’t need to change the sub, it’s cool), I recommend purchasing a pair of "Klipsch RTP Satellite" 8 ohm, 50 watts. (They are from a 5.1 home theater, but you can only order two front ones) In short, with these Klipsch, the system reached a completely different level of sound! And the sound quality is just a new world! Recommend!
Thank you for playing my favourite song in this one!
You are welcome :)
Still using my Z-2300 in 2019. But, I have gone through a LOT of satellites before finding the one that sounded superb and could take the full power every day. The best and perfect sats for me were the Cambridge Minx Min 12 Satellite Bookshelf Speakers. Acoustic suspension baffles. About 3" square, 25-200W and $75 ea. They are awesome!!! Getting to them, I went through: Classic Take 2, Polk TL-1, TL-2- and TL-3s. They all burned up in short order, wide open vol. Looking back, I believe the Z did not have enough power to drive them. They were all 2-ways and sounded very good but the mids burned out and one crossover. I replaced parts in them for a long time. Now, these Cambridge units are my hearts desire. Beautiful match. :)
I’m still using z337
Did you just plug the Cambridge Minx 12 straight into to sub RCAs?
I've got the system from someone for free because they don't need it anymore. No regrets. The satellites are not good but with a good pair of speakers the and the Z2300 sub you got a cheap but nice system.
I have one and I use it with my own satellites. Try Dayton B452-AIR, they work very well, just hook them up to the stereo outputs on the sub.
I’m planing on doing this with my set but with 6x9s as the satilites
I'm also using mine with two little outdoor use speakers, sounds MUCH better
Which little outdoor use speakers? Thx
so Nostalgic, bought this speaker 13 years ago, One of the best purchased I made in my life, cant stop playing Kanye west Graduation music that time. Too bad its now in the basement of our old house. What a trip to memory lane.
thanks for so sweet feedback.
Nice technology
Song is called Fearless by lost sky
I have the same for 11years now. Only have to restore the satellites. The woofer is a bom. He keeps playing like the first day I bought the speakerset. Greetings Bert. Hillegom the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Thanks for feedback, i am working on new video, where I testdifferent replacement speakers for z2300.
After 17 years of use Z-2300, I connected "Klipsch RTP Satellite" 8 ohm, 50 watts. to this sub instead of my native stock ones. And i strongly recommend it, you will get a system of another level!
Amigo, que especificaciones tienen los satélites que muestras en el video?
Omg.. This z2300 is a killing speaker machine! OK whe have also the s730 edifier but I prefer the z2300. Now I have the z5500 and I'm so happy with the z5500. The only problem I can't fiind the z2300 for buy again 😭
check local second hand markets/internet pages.
OMFG THAT'S REALLY A BEAST
no, beat is my second system for aftermovies - ua-cam.com/video/SJ6Bn6s5BLg/v-deo.html
lol i have the logitech z5500 its not as a beast as you think
Dark Sights maybe u aint using it correct, i can make my kitchen window flex, and all doors with half volume bass boost. I also modded it, it has removed high pass filter, and better box, belive it or not, it goes down to 17hz
@@smaust4238 How did you remove high pass filter??
@@SpeakerMaster942 for some reason mine has no one, i think its the real old model. Its plays really deep
I just bought a pair of KLIPSCH R-41PM active speakers, do you think I could use my old z-2300 subwoofer with them? If so, with what kind of cable? The speakers have a Subwoofer Out connection.
Techscrew, с какими сателлитами вы его используете? Буду очень благодарен за ответ!
(у меня сломался один родной динамик, вот ищу чем заменить сателлиты, т.к. сабвуфер то очень хороший!)
J’ai un système logitech z5450 avec des sattelites de rechange (lonpoo lp42), le son est plus fort, beaucoup plus clair bref un set up audio parfait
Wow, nice 🙂
Salut, je viens d'en recuperer un et j'ai bien envie de changer les sattelites tellement je les trouve sous dimensionné. Ceci a moindre frais. J'envisage des eltax concept mini, qu'en pense tu je m'y connais pas trop dans ce genre d'enceintes. C'est pour de la musique, telle quel je trouve qu'il y a trop de basse.
imma get a z5500 and use a JVC HX-Z30 as a center channel speaker. Will def. make midrange sound a ton better lol
Thanks for good tip.
Man i've had my set for over 10 years. of course the front grill on the sub is removed, it just keeps getting slapped.
Do you like them?
I bought my z-2300 2nd hand and when I came home I realized the system smelled strongly of weed. So my room smelled like that for a couple of weeks. Either way, I love my z-2300. I replaced the shitty satellites with some 2-way Pioneer ones which sound much better.
Nice story, I also change stock satellites speakers.
Did you connect the z-2300 subwoofer straight to the speakers? If so, with what kind of cable? I am wondering if I can connect the sub straight to my Klipsch R-41PM...
@@fLrzi Damn I've come a long way in 2 years. My system is out of the world right now. But I did connect them to the plate amp on the subwoofer. I just cut off the ends of the RCA cables, bought some speaker wire, and merged them together. Word of advice though: don't do that. The amp on the z2300 is TRASH. It blew up $300 worth of speakers with clipping alone. Those speakers were able to take 3 times the power that the z2300 gave them, but the z2300 was so distorted it just blew them up. Set after set. Only thing good about the z2300 is the subwoofer driver. That is why I later bought 3 more and made a T-Line box for them. I thought they were good until I bought an SVS PB-1000. Then dual SVS PB-2000s. Then I went crazy and bought 2 SVS PB 16 Ultras. And now I must be insane because I have 2 JTR Captivator 4000 ULFs. You can kinda tell when I got a job from my subwoofers alone.
Long story short, don't use the amp from the Z2300 to power up your speakers if you want them to go more than 50-60% volume. It's trash, it sounds like trash, and it will blow up your speakers. Just get a normal amp. A good one is like $300. Less than if you blow up your speakers. Then get a splitter so you can connect the z2300 sub too if you want.
Should check inside the bassport for herb..lol
Hi, nice demo. I've been considering buying this system. However, I know th4 Bass must be some big thing, but can you tell me how the treble highs and mods sounded with original satellites?
Original satellites sound very well, but they can't hold long term power(loud sound)
@@Techscrews I actually meant to say, the Treble and mid-range highs.. Bass is good, but crisp clear treble and mids is great to hear. Seems most of these systems don't have a separate Bass and Treble control.
How did you connect the speakers to the unit? Assuming rca to wire adapter
Just cut the wire and connect bare wires to the speakers
how do these old subs never break logitech deveres a big W
Sorry for possibly stupid question, but how were you able to use different speakers than the ones provided? I'm guessing your speakers are plugged into a receiver/amplifier; is the sub as well? How? Thanks so much.
Speakers connects to sub by RCA type plug:)

¿Como adapto cable para portatil?
Hi!
How do you connect the Logitech z-2300 to the tv to be the sound on the speakers itself?
@BeastRealm wolf Thank you very much for replying. May I know what kind of a digital to analog adapter you bought?
Has Anyone, ever figured out where the Crossover points are ? Logitech, was Very evasive, When I asked them years ago. The Reason, I want to know is that I was hoping to match the Woofer to "better quality" Satellites. But I do suspect that the "OG's" were Not up to the task to handle Anything lower than 200 hz at the Explosive SPLs of a THX certified product. That being said, The "compact monitors" I had hoped to use would be best crossed-over (" high pass") somewhere in the 60 to 80 hz range ( depending on the Slope of the 'X-cross-over"). While I'd like to The Low Pass portion to be in the Same Range … But, a 2nd Order slope / 12db or greater for the Woofer. Otherwise, I might be hunting for a "new" Sub ???
Woofer crossover is 150hz (blog.jseaber.com/2009/08/30/logitech-z-2300-subwoofer-disassembly/comment-page-1/)
Dunno about the satelllites, but I'd guess they start somewhere around 150, as they vibrate quite a bit.
Have you guys come to a solution? I am also looking for replacement of the original sattelites, but i am not sure what to choose. 8 ohm and wattage is easy task. But the range of the speaker and the crossover thing is unclear. So i am searching for someone who has done it successfully and can share the experience of what he found and how it did work for him.
@@atanasdionisiev3031 - I haven't done a damn thing about It ! In this time of Indecision; I'm predictably, Stuck. But I figured, You were entitled to a reply, regardless. Should I ever move-off my Kester. I'll keep You posted. btw - I truly believe the Best Way of handling this; is to Playback the Subs & Satellites, assisted by a computer with a "mini - disp" and a Calibrated Microphone available from Parts Express and, Others. Of course, Measure the System Stock, first. Then perhaps the Satellites, separately. and the same for the SUB etc. Should You follow-thru first. Let me know, how You fair ;-)
@@atanasdionisiev3031 The upper bass crossover limit is 150hz. There are ways to reduce it but that involves soldering different capacitor and resistor, as I think the filter is passive. And then according to the new crossover limit you decide on the mid crossover limits.
I haven't done shit as I'm too lazy at this point.
I just saw guy with 8 x z 2300 now one seems weak :D
Edifier s730D vs This. Which would win? (At sound quality, bass, etc.)
ArtūrsM I want to compare Edifier s730 and Logitech z2300
of course s730D:
- more wats
- 2 way satellite speakers
- remote control
- optical input
- bigger subwoofer
Z-2300 give better price/performance, because s730 cost around $400, which is totally sick for PC speakers.
What about sound/bass quality? Is it worthy of its price?
@Koti M Yeah ab class amplifier is better than d class. But class d is for less energy consume and heat.
@Koti M I have both the Edifier S730 and the Logitech Z-2300 and the Logitech actually produces better sounding, deeper bass than the Edifier in spite of being a smaller subwoofer while the Edifier produces sharper, brighter highs, since the Edifier has two-way satellites it's not surprising that it produces better highs but the bass is the weird thing.
Good old z2300
yes, old but old also in nowadays :)
Bro.. Place suggest me... Can you tell me logitech z623 amd z2300 which one is better for music purpose and tell me which one is provided deeper bass & pure bass and long throw of bass effect..

@@arcticfoxacosta thanks
Go to eBay. They have a bunch there for like $80 USD, but shipping costs are probably really high.
Also this system is ancient, and it's been discontinued so you won't see _any_ in a shop at all. Finding one used, online is the only way to acquire one of these beasts.
I am getting a used z2300 in 1000. Is it a good deal?
i have a old z2300 but satellite speaker are not working. i will sell them in 1000
Koti M is in a very bad mood.
Why is there like a cut part on the down right on the subwoofer cabinet
dunno? someone tried opening it the wrong way and then realized that the sub is there?
how did you connect the QX speakers to the woofer?
I also have z2300 setup, but my speakers died and I'm trying to find out which speakers are compatible to the z2300 woofer and how to connect them
You can simply use any speakers with 6-8 ohms
@@Techscrews first of all wow, thank you for responding so fast
alright 6-8Ohms, but what about the connectivity? I remember the speakers connected to the woofer with rca cables if I don't make a mistake, shouldn't the new speakers have the same cables?
I'm working on a new video, how to make speaker cables for logitech z2300. but the easiest way is to buy an rca aux cable, cut the 3.5 mm jack and connect the rca cables to the new speakers and be done.
@@Techscrews so im gonna need 2 passive speakers and 1 rca-aux cable, right?
