Our top 5 Winner is clearly the Logitech X-540 in terms of overall performance and simplicity. Even though it may not score high on specs, it showed its superiority when it came to sound quality. The twin-driver satellite design of the X-540 makes a difference, delivering fuller, richer sound.

In our movie playback test, we cranked up the volume right up to 80 percent without any audible distortion, a big plus for a mainstream 5.1 system. The engulfing effect while playing Transformer HD video was great and astonishing for a speaker of this size and price. The subwoofer did its part well without sounding too overpowering the rest but was tight and quite accurate. In gaming tests, it
also sounded fantastic with accurate positional sound and good details. For music, the set wasn't particularly impressive though again, it scored fairly better than most in this price range. The mids were crisp but the highs and lows were not quite adequate for our discerning ears. However, they were quite good for commercial Pop and Hip Hop.

The speakers also have decent build quality and great ergonomics and the system also came with a wired remote control.
