Hi guys, I currently own the discontinued Logitech X-540 system (with a Xonar DX), which has served me well but has finally developed some faults so I'm ready to get a new system.
I was looking at its successor, the Z506, and can get a good deal on it, but after some research a lot of people seem to be saying that these bundled PC speakers aren't worth the money and that home cinema speakers used with a PC are better value.
I'm not very experienced in this area, so how would home cinema speakers plug into my PC? I'm used to the 3 black orange and green cables my speakers came with, not sure if it would be the same to setup the non-PC specialised ones. Also what speakers would you recommend? I'm on a bit of a budget, probably don't want to go too much higher than £100 RRP unfortunately. I definitely would like a subwoofer, surround sound isn't a requirement though as the speakers will all be put next to my monitor, really I just want something fairly loud and having extra speakers is one way to achieve that And the best quality for the money. These will be used for music, possibly parties, gaming and films.
Thanks in advance for your help
