Topic: Logitech Z-5500 vs. ANY HTIB (priced 15k and below)

[Verbl Kint]

The Z-5500 has had a great run but can it still compete against any HTIB in the 15k price range (i.e. LG HT-904 Mark Levinson)?

[Levijones]

Nice question. I'm in the market now, so I'll bump this one.

[jrcrunch]

bought it at a cheaper price before (mine is almost 2 yrs) but still works great. i rec it to my friends with limited budget

[jlaw]

i have a z5500 too and my this one is the loudest ever!  ..best out there under 15k. but then again, i bought t at NOT under 15k, a little more :'( early last year.

[StarSlayer]

I just goy my z5500 yesterday and I'm totally impressed.  Ang sarap pakinggan pag DTS yung track.

[ondoy]

Try Jamo A 102 HCS12 HITB
Its being sold at P34,690 at Abenson

Im selling a brand new open box for only 15k. Sagad na po ang price. U can check it sa pdvd market place.

[Jett]

I have a 2 year old unit. Sounds great when watching using my PC. I agree with the great comments on listening to DTS movies.

hi guys,

baguhan lang dito, sorry to bump this up. kasalukuyan din ako naghahanap ng 5.1 speakers, and hindi ako makapagdecide for a tight budget of 15-20k pesos. (pero kaya ko maghintay para makapag ipon pa for better options)

i found this z-5500 and good reviews nga, pero mostly nakikita ko yung issues na sinasabi nila na it lacks mid-range?

for the subs? sulit ba subs nito as in? i consider this, kasi 10" ang subs, baka kasi pag bumili ako for example ng 30k pesos ha HTIB mabitin naman ako sa subs.

hindi naman ako audiophile, at hindi rin ako eksperto, gusto ko lang na maging sulit sa subs at sound details pag bibili ako.

HTIB versus Z-5500?

PS: i owned a standalone dvd player, kaya naghahanap talaga ako ng option sayang din kasi stand alone player ko.

Saw a bnew Z5500 in one shop in Megamall selling for P12k just this weekend. I thought mataas pa yun for a bnew only to find out na ok na pala yung price nila! Might drop by and buy one this weekend. They also have the lower model Z5400 selling it for P10k yata if im not mistaken.

Do we have any distributor here? Bka pwede mag audition if malapit lang sa Makati

[boing]

[duneto968]

Sorry for the noob question, but how do you install this? Do you need a separate receiver for this? Besides the speaker set what else do I need to buy? (will connect to a Panny plasma, DVD and PS3)

Thanks!

Hi Carlo,

A receiver is not necessary. The unit has built-in Dolby Digital and DTS decoding. It has digital (spdif) and analogue audio inputs like entry-level AVRs.

The Panny Plasma's analogue out can head to one of the analogue inputs, while the DVD Player and the PS3 can hookup to the 2 digital inputs (one coaxial and one optical).

I hope this helps.

carlo, try fujitsu 4th floor in sm megamall.  15k and may stock sila (i checked this saturday).
or you can get it via order basis din, 2 days up to a week ang waiting, via Techjunction, of tipidpc.com.  kung decided ka na, sabihin mo presyong ninjababez ang ibigay sayo 

meron ako nito sa apartment ko, kung gusto mong i-check out.   kaso nga lang yung satellite box defective yata, everytime i raise the volume to 70% (on loud scenes) nag rarattle yung satellite box, pero 100% volume tapos hawak ko yung satellite speaker wala ng rattling sound.  feeling ko nabuksan na ito ng dating owner (3rd hand na kasi yung acquisition ko).

im not selling it ha  , pero pwede mong hiramin kung gusto mo, para ma-experience mo sya sa pad mo before deciding to get one.  pick-up mo lang dito sa makati 

[gorki0918]

im also planning to have this unit.. where is megamall can i purchase this..? thanks

[boing]

Sir, at cyberzone in the 4th floor, ikot ikot kalang dun sa mga store. Mayroon ata sa Octagon pero mahal ata, I forgot the price already. I'm sure other stores in cyberzone have it.

[ninjababez®]

Sir, at cyberzone in the 4th floor, ikot ikot kalang dun sa mga store. Mayroon ata sa Octagon pero mahal ata, I forgot the price already. I'm sure other stores in cyberzone have it.

it is around 18k - 20k in octagon.  or give this guy a call, his name is charles a.k.a Techjunction in tipidpc.com he can get one for you.  sabihin mo nalang refer ka ni ninjababez at bigyan ka ng ninjababez na presyo 
you'll have to wait 2-3 days (max is around a week) to get it though.

[opteron_x2]

yup i agree with sir ninjababes.. pinaka mura na makikita mo sa cyberzone last time na nagtanong ako 16.5k..
14.7k lang yan ke techjunction ng tpc..got mine from tpc 2nd hand..can't go wrong with this monster speaker..

ganyan din price binigay sakin ni qlt_south (techjunction's wife).  wala na pala talaga akong "special price" dun 
may shop din sila sa mandaluyong btw.

[artsky]

sarap manuod ng movies using this speaker. now lang ako nagka 5.1 sounds so kahit yung mga old dvd disc ko inulit ko, grabe, iba ang experience, even nasa 19inch lcd lang ako pero yung sounds talagang naka envelope sayo,

[boing]

Do you guys recommend the z 5500 over similarly priced htibs?
