Trying to decide which speaker system to buy. Games, DVD then music is the priority importance of listening.

Looking for comments/feedback.

TIA

[hint] This is a question for the "Sound and Audio" forum, so a mod will probably move it [/hint]

Anyway, I have the Z-5500's, and am ENTIRELY happy with my purchase, tho I have no first hand with the ProMedia setup, I can say that Logitech has an edge on them in a few key areas..
first is price, the z-5500's are about $50.00 US less than Klipsch.
second, is the Digital connectivity offered by Logitech, and the onboard DTS and Dolby Digital decoding.

Some will say that Klipsch have a more natural sound, but as I said, I can't say from experience.
I can tell you that the Z-5500's sound absolutely amazing, and do not distort, ever....even at max volume(which btw...is about as loud as an F-18 engine).

*MOVED* Please post in the appropriate sections.

They both sound great.
I like the Klipsch's very clean sound. But the downside is no digital connection (that is if you just have to have the digital connection.). They are very musical and dont distort at high volume levels.

The best advice is go to somewhere, where you can listen to them side by side. Choose which one sounds better to your ear.

I love the sound of the 5500's and how hard they hit. The Pro-Medias are of course great too, but if I could choose I would get the 5500s.
