Logitech wireless speakers
Logitech today announced the world's first THX-certified 5.1 speaker system with digital wireless dual rear speakers. The new 315 watt speakers feature a sleek new satellite design with three drivers and include Logitech's patented pressure driver subwoofer technology to deliver powerful, distortion-free bass. The Logitech Z-5450 digital system is set to be available this month for $500, while the Z-4 system is due in October for $100.
The Logitech Z-5450 digital system includes inputs for up to seven multimedia devices and features stylish chrome satellites -- with optional cloth grills -- that have rotating stands for easy positioning. The Z-5450 system also uses digital 2.4 GHz wireless technology, with adaptive frequency hopping, to minimize any chance of interference.
The Digital SoundTouch Control Center serves as a wireless control center and digital decoder, and provides a convenient backlit LCD. Each of the independent rear speakers boasts a possible range of 28 feet from the speaker system control center.
The Logitech Z-4 speakers come with a wired remote control that includes a headphone jack, volume and power controls. Both speaker systems incorporate an auxiliary port to provide connectivity for MP3 players and other audio devices.
