Go with either the Z-680's or a used set of Klipsch Promedia 5.1 Ultras. Personally if it were me, I would save the extra $50 and buy a new Promedia 5.1 Ultra. However, the Z-680 is a great system, especially for the price.

I do recommend that whatever system you get you should keep some money left over to switch the wiring out to some 16 gauge wires, this is hard on the Klipsch's as they use minijacks. Its real simple on the Logitechs. I switched my Promedia 4.1 wires to 16 gauge Monster Cables (don't rag me, I got them dirt cheap at employee discount so I couldn't resist) and it made a world of difference. Although I had to go to the trouble of soldering on minijacks and stuff.
