The Logitech Z623 is a THX-certified 2.1 system delivering 200W RMS with an immensely powerful side-ported subwoofer.

  • Powerful side-ported subwoofer delivers deep, rich bass and real low-end rumble
  • Multiple inputs (two 3.5mm plus RCA) connect three devices at once
Watch-outs
  • Satellites lack high-end detail; treble can sound rolled off

  • No Bluetooth connectivity

Ranked #4 in Best Computer Speakers with Subwoofer
Logitech Z906
$410.99as of Jun 7

The Logitech Z906 is a THX-certified 5.1 surround system with five satellites and a powered subwoofer, putting out 500W RMS.

Strengths
  • True 5.1 surround with five satellites and a powered subwoofer
  • THX certified plus Dolby Digital and DTS decoding for cinematic immersion
  • 500W RMS (1000W peak) fills large rooms with powerful, room-shaking bass
Watch-outs
  • No HDMI inputs, awkward with modern 4K TVs
  • No HD-audio (Dolby TrueHD / DTS-HD MA) decoding
  • Musical performance is weaker than its cinematic strength

How they stack up

Logitech Z623

The Z623 puts out more raw RMS power (200W) than the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX and has more inputs, but its plastic satellites lack the detail of the Klipsch horn tweeters, and it has no Bluetooth like the Logitech Z407 or surround channels like the Logitech Z906.

Logitech Z906

The Z906 is the only true surround system here, adding 5.1 channels the stereo Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX, Logitech Z623, Logitech Z407 and Creative Pebble Plus cannot match, with far more power, though it is overkill for a simple desktop setup and lacks the Z407's Bluetooth.
