im looking into upgrading from the current crappy 2.1 cyber acoustics set I have, but I can't quite decide on a certain system.
I really don't need surround sound since my laptop only has a headphone jack, so 5.1 isn't a necessity right now, but it's always a plus.
I have been looking at the Logitech systems: Z-2300 and Z-5500
Klipsch may be good: Klipsch ProMedia GMX 2.1 and 5.1
Or even home theater systems: Philips MX5600D is one that I'm really looking at.
I would like to keep this new system under 300$. the Philips retails for about 400$, but Sam's Club has them for 300$.
I would also like to have multiple inputs (hence the Z-5500, ProMedia, and Home Theater setup)
I've read numerous reviews, but can't seem to make up my mind. The Klipsch are an excellent brand, great quality, and multiple inputs. The Logitechs are also excellent, great quality, but more power and less inputs. A Home Theater system would probably deliver all of the above: power, quality, and inputs.
The more I save the better. So if someone would recommend a good sub200$ system, all the better. The Z-5500s are looking good w/ the [H]ot Deal. Also, what I'm looking at is something w/ a really good bass response because I'd be playing games (CoD, UT2K4, etc) and listening to music, and I love hearing the bass.
Anyways... what's your opinion? I want everybody's opinions on what they think would suit my needs best.
