| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Convenient But So-So Sound
I bought my Z-4 system to replace an older Altec 2.1 system that lacked a volume control and headphone jack. The Altec was less expensive, but its sound was significantly better.
<br />
<br />The Z-4 system has a muffled mid-range, poor transient response, and relatively high subwoofer distortion. Subwoofer position makes a significant difference in perceived bass response. Imaging is average, with a limited sound stage. To be sure, the Z-4 beats any 2.0 system I've heard, but even with a high quality sound card and graphic equalizer, I am unable to make it sound "right."
<br />
<br />If you don't have high expectations for sound quality, you will appreciate the unit's attractive satellites, good fit and finish, easy hook-up, and convenient control module. If your primary objective is good sound, though, the Z-4 is probably not for you. | 3 | 741 days ago | Very average product, and not all that loud
But I really only bought it for the sub, as I already have two near-field studio monitors.
<br />
<br />As a system, the output is pretty weak. As the other reviewer mentioned, there is a real lack of midrange. This is probably fine if all you listen to is hip-hop, but with any other style of music, it really suffers.
<br />
<br />Should also work fine for gamers, but it's not a surround system, so why bother? | 3 | 741 days ago | Excellent Computer Speaker For The Price
I cannot possibly imagine what the other reviewers expected. These are $70 computer speakers, not a multi-thousand dollar audiophile surround sound speaker system. For what these are, they deliver truly impressive sound - smooth, room vibrating, bass, crisp highs, and a midrange nearly perfect for computer games. If you prefer music, the midrange can be improved with only minor adjustments in a graphics equalizer - available in Windows Media Player (under "Enhancements" of the "View" menu) and any other decent media player. With a little equalizer tweaking, these speakers deliver exceptional music performance and are a true pleasure to listen to (rock, classic rock, jazz, or country).
<br />
<br />Don't overdo the bass. If you're using an equalizer, leave the bass control centered on the remote (use this control to tweak individual songs) and adjust the bass up a very tiny amount with the equalizer. Many move equalizer sliders much too far, resulting in grossly inaccurate sound. Anyway, the bass should balance with the remaining sound, not overwhelm it (or steal power away from the mid-range, resulting in, surprise, muffled sound). In most listening environments, to add punch to the bass, the middle bass should be equal to the very lowest bass setting. If the bass is set correctly, the mid-range usually requires no adjustment. However, many listening environments also benefit from a tiny amount of additional treble (again, not too much - balance). All that should get you in the ballpark. From there, you can adjust for your preference, environment, computer's sound card, and connection (speaker or laptop headphone outputs). None of this should require anything more than gentle tweaking, not huge adjustments.
<br />
<br />Are these speakers perfect? Of course not. I have over two thousand dollars invested in the speakers for my home entertainment system, with two 250-watt amplifiers driving those speakers. Now that is a system I expect near perfect sound from (but eve | 5 | 741 days ago |
