It doesn't matter how hard your earphones pound your eardrums with cranium shaking noise, you can't truly call yourself a power user unless you're ticking off the neighbors and scaring the hell out of the dog with a surround sound setup that rattles the walls and punches copious amounts of bass. Without it, you might as well give your man-card away to someone who plans on fulfilling the requirements for membership in an illustrious club that demands everything be over the top. Logitech's famed Z-5500 system fit the bill, and there are many who consider it to be the king of multimedia speakers. But a king's reign can only last so long before either being usurped, or passing the torch to a successor. In this case, it's the latter, with Logitech's new Z906 speaker system stepping up to the throne as the company's new flagship speaker-set. Like the Z-5500, the Z906 comes ready to tackle your entire entertainment center with enough inputs to accommodate up to six devices at once, including your TV, DVD, DVR, Blu-ray player, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, iPod, and of course your PC or Mac. It has a Class-D amplifier, Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS decoding, 500 watts (RMS) of power, and an 8-inch side-firing subwoofer to deliver the kind of thunderous bass you've come to expect from Logitech.
Logitech’s Z-5500 5.1-channel speaker system was legendary for its beefy amp and beastly subwoofer, its plethora of optical and digital input options, and its ability to decode popular surround-sound codecs. The 5.1-channel Z906 speaker system taking its place at the top of Logitech’s audio lineup is every bit its equal. The Z-5500, however, hit the market in 2004. In the intervening seven years, HDTV, Blu-ray, high-definition surround sound, and Class D amplifiers have elevated our expectations. We’ve grown accustomed to consumer electronics that deliver price/performance ratios that were unimaginable in 2004. Our chief criticism of the Z906 is that Logitech positions the system as a suitable companion for a Blu-ray player, and we think a PC with a Blu-ray drive and an HDMI videocard fits that definition. But the Z906 doesn’t provide HDMI pass-through, and it can’t decode the Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks that make Blu-ray movies sound as glorious as they look. The Z906 is outfitted with three 1/8-inch analog stereo inputs, so you can still get HD audio if you connect the system to a PC or a Blu-ray player with discrete analog outputs, but that’s messy and not all Blu-ray players have those outputs.
