The Logitech Z623 (see image) is built for sound quality, with a wide frequency response and a tight bass. They're up for any gaming scenario, no matter how intense or immersive.
Klipsch and Logitech are two of the most popular hi-fi audio and home theater names. Logitech Z623 speakers are built to produce powerful, dramatic sound, while Klipsch Promedia speakers are tuned to provide balanced, even sound.
In summary, the Logitech Z623 is a more performance-oriented speaker system, while the Klipsch Promedia 2.1 is a more neutral, even sounding speaker with less emphasis on bass. In addition to different sound characteristics, these two speakers also have different appearances and specifications.
Both have their pros and cons, but which speaker is right for you? Keep reading to find out.
Sound Quality
Let me tell you something right off the bat.
The sound quality performance you'll end up getting from a speaker will always depend on your room acoustics - particularly room dimensions and speaker positions.
The impact of the combination of these two is actually so strong that in most cases, it doesn't even make sense to utter a single word on sound quality without speaking of them.
This is also why it's not unusual to see completely different reviews of the same speaker.
In one case the speaker might be placed in a sweet spot inside the room and hence the user might be satisfied. In other cases the same speaker might be ill placed and hence user might even have returned it.
The point most people miss here is that it mostly isn't even about the engineering behind the speaker itself. It's about where you place the speaker inside which room.
So, in order to solve this problem, I've partnered with Acoustics and Audio Engineering PhD Andrea Cicero from AC Acustica and created Soundton - a simple, 2D, browser accessible online speaker placement calculator.
With Soundton, now there's a way to figure the sound quality of most speakers before you buy them.
