| Clarus's Full Review: Logitech SoundMan X1 2 Speakers |
As a software developer and a part time entrepreneur, I spend most of my time in front of my PC (most time working) so I always try to get the parts to make the time in front of the machine as pleasant as possible, large display, DVD, good soundcard etc. I always thought that a subwoofer is a gamer only equipment and costs a lot of money so I'll never buy it anyway. But my dealer sent me an offer for this Logitech SoundMan X1 for just 30 bucks instead of 80. A great deal also, why not to try it out.
I installed it first in my office to try it during a Friday QUAKE tournament I must say that I was quite pleased with the result. The sound was more dimensional and intensive than ever before. It was like in the real live.
After trying this part at my PC at home, where I use to listen to music and sometimes watch DVD's I realized what I was looking for all the time.
The product has also some inconveniences like the bass control unit or headphones jack are hidden behind the subwoofer what is sometimes quite disturbing, but that's all what I find discommoding on this device.
All in one, this is a great investment for people like I am, who's sitting in front of his PC all the day listening to background music, playing games sometimes and watching DVD's. It's not a professional home theater system, it's a good performer for daily tasks in a SOHO environment.
So if you plan to upgrade your sound system, don't think too long, just use SoundMan X1 to add realistic, high-definition sound to your multimedia PC, portable CD player or TV.
