Customer Reviews

Perfect price
I have enjoyed so far the two months or so of owning this logitech g51. The best thing about logitech is the control panel. I find myself changing the settings a lot with ease. I can also mute the mic or mute the speakers with the convenient buttons located on the control panel. Also, I didn't expect the matrix button to work so well. The gaming button helps a lot while im playing COD 4 & the music button works a LOT better than I thought it would. :D

The worst thing about the logitech g51 is that it has extremely short cables for the rear speakers. I mounted my speakers to the wall & i was barely able to mount them. Since these are surround sound speakers, they should have made them longer! (that's why I gave the g51 a 4/5 stars)

Do not get the g51 if you're planning to mount or put the rear speakers further than about 10 to 12 feet from your computer. (Depending on corners & curve on the cable it can be longer or shorter)

In any case, the sound can get really loud & depending on your sound card, it can sound clear with good quality.

Overall this is a great product, easy to install. It works & sounds great.

Great little system.
Good system, nice bass, clear crisp sound.

I use these for gaming and music, and they sound great for both. I have had these over a month now and they are still working perfectly.

For as cheap as these are and nice as they sound, I can't understand why people give it a bad review.

Satisfied
I am satisfied with the quality of the speakers, play call of duty 4 every day at lunch and after dinner with some friends, and it really makes the game play that much better.
