  • Looking for 5.1 or 7.1 pc speakers

Hi, I'm looking for 5.1 or 7.1 speakers for my pc. I found logitech z506 and x530, but I need something with better quality.
Where to look?
Thanks

Edit: I checked bhv, khoury home, microtechstore and microcity. Couldn't find anything better.

I went to their bhv outlet. That's where I found logitech z506. Should I visit a specific branch?

Not anymore?
Check out the Bose Companion 5, They're truly amazing, it's 2 speakers and one sub-woofer that give a 5.1 surround, and the sound quality is great (They are made for computers). I don't know how much they cost here tho.
Viatek (ex-fidelio) used to have nice speakers set,dunno if they only have dvd surround systems or deck amplifier + speakers...(JBL,Denon,Bose...)
Are you connecting these speakers to a soundcard, or to onboard audio?
How much are those speakers worth?

You might want to use an external DAC/soundcard to push them. Just about anything sounds better than onboard audio, even the Xonar DG, and the sweet spot is the Xonar DX or an equivalent external DAC. Please don't skimp on the audio source if you're getting a gaming rig.

Also, why Z68? Open a new topic and let's see what system you're planning to build.

enthralled,

May I ask you where did you find these S730 speakers?

I looked everywhere to get this set (S550 too) and couldn't find them, ended up buying a Z906 set from Microcity back in October.

I found the s730 at Radioshack hamra branch. Unfortunately the set I got was the last one they had. They have other Edifiers though. You might wanna check them out.

Yes the Logitech Z506 found at Virgin megastores.
100$ system is kind of cheap, anywhere to find the Z906 in Lebanon?
Also found a genius SW-HF5.1 5000 system for *150$* in a computer shop

Check Virgin for Logitech speakers they are cheaper than others.
