Logitech Z-10
Stereo speakers will never die and will rock the world. Nothing else can top the ease of setup or miniscule footprints they're offering. While most 2.0 desktop systems are underpowered, look bland, and sound like a chipmunk that crawled into the clothes dryer chute, it doesn't have to be that way any more. Enter Logitech's 30-watt Z-10 system, comprised of two mirror black pillars on your desk with unadulterated USB sound, touch sensitive controls, and an informative amber LCD that shows you everything from track information to your latest e-mails and RSS feeds.
Package Contents-
- Z-10 speakers
- A to B mini USB cable
- 3.5mm audio cable
- Logitech LCD Manager 1.03 installation CD
- Cleaning cloth
Despite this, they take only slightly more space than your ordinary desktop speakers, with a footprint of 4.7" x 4.5". Cable management is no issue at all, as both channels only have 2 cables coming out at the back and a power cord, and the USB or analog audio cord. There's no unsightly wall wart either, as the power supply is built right into the left channel of the stereo. A 3.5mm headphone jack also makes an appearance on the right of the speaker, great for listening to music without disturbing nor going around it.
Like many other modern devices on the market today, the Z-10 comes in black with a silver trim, and also a glossy piano black front that really gives it character. As is typical with these glossy finishes, it's easily attracted to dust and smudged by fingerprints. This is easily taken care of however, as Logitech was kind enough to include a lint-free cloth for quick wipe-downs.
Audio Quality.
The Z-10 handles music awsomely well, and it's obvious that a lot of thought was put into their design. First and foremost, they're USB, they bypass the imperfections and noise linked to your onboard soundcard that would typically introduce hissing and electronic noise, such as how I can hear light clicks and squeaks from my video card and optical drive when using analog feature.
Second, the drivers are beefier than what you'd be accustomed to with typical single and dual-driver setups, pairing 1" tweeters with 3" mini woofers in a bi-amplified configuration. Woofers you heard me right. The blowholes are on the back, and they move quite a bit of air. Such a combination allows you to have clean highs and deep lows, deeper than I'd anticipated, although there's no "kick" to it much to the disappointment of my love for gaming since that's something only achievable with a dedicated subwoofer. No, the bass is much better suited for listening to the depths of an acoustic guitar slow rock, the smooth bass in classical music. For those actually trying to listen to the music and not feeling it through their teeth, the Z-10 will do nicely. Listening to music on the Z-10 was somewhat strange compared to my other sets of speakers, not because anything was wrong with the audio, but rather because it was flat. Whereas most consumer speakers employ the "disco smile" to emphasize highs and lows, the Z-10 stayed relatively flat like a monitor set, true to the original mastering and leaving it up to the user to use the equalizer to fiddle with the sound of their desired.
But It:-
