Well I've had my Yamaha TSS-1 speakers for something like 5 years now and this last month has saw them slowly dying a rather noisy (and bloody annoying) death. They finally popped out of existance last week but a friend of mine with too much money, offered to sell me his Logitech Z-5500 speakers at a nice reduced price (he'd bought those Gigaworks 7.1 thingies). The office PC with which I'm writing this on uses a pair of little Logitech's too, so I had rashly assumed that....well..., just look at this:
Logitech Z-5500 subwoofer and centre speaker on the left; Yamaha TSS-1 sub and centre on the right!
It's bloody huge - the courier gave me such a look when he asked what the hell it was, as it was struggling to bring it into the house. I hadn't realised it was that large - I'd only heard of good reports about the speakers and since he was a friend of mine, I thought "why not"?!
The dog took one look at the sub and legged it pronto...
