These speakers seemed to be quite popular back in August last year:
http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/78637

These speakers were also at this price during October for their knockout sale, and are now on discount again.
http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/81651

Great for anyone currently shopping for speakers, or people who missed out on the last sale.

You can probably pricematch at Officeworks for a bit of further discount.

The next cheapest is Dicksmith at $129, according to staticICE.

      I saw them on Boxing day sale in JB for $137. One quick OzBargain search told me they can be had cheaper, so I waited. Seems I don't need to wait long. :-)

      They sound like much more expensive speakers and are very cheap.

      You really can't complain about them unless your suggesting someone pays a lot more money for better speakers…

        Sound quality is crap. No treble but plenty of bass for the head bangers. If you want some better quality speakers in the similar price range, IMO go for Creative. They are the people who deals with sound and not a company that does jack of all trades.

        •  
          Jetstar777 on 07/01/2013 - 10:49

          +1 Creative make a far superior speaker. It comes down to budget and what your particular needs/wants are in regards to sound quality. I have Creative speakers on one PC and Logitech on another (kids computer)… there is no comparison.

      diamondtouch1 on 07/01/2013 - 08:50

      I believe that quality went down a notch with the current range of logitech speakers. The older models were much better built. Not sure about their other products

      I disagree.
      I have some right in front of me an I certainly wouldn't call them cheap feeling.

      They also sound really good, especially for this price.

        I've got the Swan M10s, they're pretty awesome for ~$150 with great clarity - even better if you get some isolation pads to cancel out all those nasty vibrations! They also look super stylish in white/black! My only issue with them is that there's no headphone jack, optical input or remote

    GreatWhiteHunter on 07/01/2013 - 06:19

    I HAVE SOME Z523'S - THE MODEL THESE REPLACED.

    THEY ARE AWESOME SO I'D EXPECT THESE TO BE JUST AS GOOD….

    Also the Swan M10's from PCCG will not come with free shipping - $19 to 2121 - adds a fair bit to the overall cost….

    •  
      GreenGuava on 07/01/2013 - 06:33

      Actually, the z523 and z623 are in the same product line-up, with the z623's having replaced the venerable z2300.

      Contrary to your belief these Replaced the z2300's, sorry to burst your bubble, but your speakers are considered nowhere near as good as these or the z2300 also I believe the z523's haven't yet been discontinued?

    •  
      backslashio on 07/01/2013 - 14:25

      That's why you'd order the M10s from MyAV :P Maximum shipping cost is only $15 to 6148

      I have the z523 system and I am happy with it, though I mostly use headphones. If the z623 is better then this is a good deal, not crystal clear but not much audible distortion.

      Thanks to its headphone socket placement its easy to plug in and unplug my headphone system.

    I have the z-5500 5.1 from logitech, they're good. But man i love the look of that swan m10, the m-50 is not quite to my liking (looks wise).

    quick qn, where is the master on/off button situated on these speakers?
    i have the z2300 and it's on the back of the woofer which is a bit annoying.
    I'd leave them on but they produce a constant humming sound (they are a few years old..) which i find annoying!

        I actually feel sorry for officeworks. Whenever a deal comes out everyone just blindly screams "PRICE MATCH AT OFFICEWORKS OMG CHEAP STUFF"
        That being said, they brought it upon themselves. I personally hate price matching. All you get is a shitty employee whose mad because he has to sell something cheaper then advertised, and you start driving the business into the ground.

          sparkyglo on 07/01/2013 - 17:14

          I would hardly feel sorry for Officeworks — they are not a small company. I imagine for the most part they would actually generate quite a lot of business from their price matching policy. It gives the perception that they are the cheapest so people feel happy spending money there (even though we know a lot of the time they are not the cheapest). I imagine many of the items that are price matched are still above their cost price even with the 5% discount. Also I imagine some people may buy a few other things while they are in store in addition to their priced matched item, again generating income on the other items.

    Are any of these suitable to bypass TV speakers without using an AV receiver? I have optical or L/R out. Not expecting much but anything would be better than my TV.

    •  
      williewuboy on 07/01/2013 - 08:56

      yeah, I think they have RCA inputs. not sure about optical though. (i'm not knowledgable enough)

      JRogers on 07/01/2013 - 09:01

      They are only phono. You will need a DAC such as a Fiio D3 to convert Optical to Line Out (3.5mm). I use one to do this with my TV.

    • +1 vote
      IamEzza on 07/01/2013 - 09:15

      Yes you can use the regular analog RCA L/R output (or headphone) from the TV and it should sound way better then the built in speakers. All PC speakers are usually good for this.

    •  
      Bill48 on 07/01/2013 - 15:06

      Thanks all. Seems a simple question but, because these units don't come with remotes, will the TV volume control also contol all these speakers?

      Must say I like the swan M10s - build quality looks superb. Where are they made? Are they "almost" as good as the M100MkII or the M50W for my intended TV usage, each of these listed at $349 and $325 respectively?

      M10 looks as if only inlet is via headphone cable out from TV - is this right?

    •  
      aerona on 07/01/2013 - 11:17

      I'm no expert but I think there's a price to pay for speakers that hold onto the value better. I remember paying for speakers for120 and reselling them for 60 5 years later. Not sure about creatine but Logitech always seems to have a big demand.

    cib0_madu on 07/01/2013 - 11:16

    2.1 speakers for 115? I got my Logitech 5.1's for 90… go figure

    •  
      aerona on 07/01/2013 - 11:22

      I've also had 5.1 channel speakers can't remember the exact model but they were quite popular 5+ years ago. Would not contemplate getting another 5.1 because it gets quite messy and its not really required as for computers.

      The new models are also quite pretty. Although I'd be interested to know the sound quality comparison to them!

    •  
      theguyrules on 07/01/2013 - 11:53

      You're Logitech 5.1's are highly unlikely to be comparable to these. The Z506 5.1 speakers have been selling for around that price, and they aren't anything like these in build quality or sound.

    After seeing this thread I ended up pre-ordering the swan m10's from pccg. been in the market for some budget pc / gaming speakers for a while. Pick up available in Mulgrave, Melbourne too! $149.00 & stock arrives tomorrow apparently for anyone else interested.

      I'm thinking of getting the m10 as well, but it just looks to chunky and is 50% more. Decisions decisions.. Also knowing that the m10 is not very popular, from my research, most of the popularity revolves around whirlpool. I think i've concluded to now get the Logitech price matched at officeworks.

        Honestly man, I don't know how much of an audiophile you or the majority of people commenting here are, but the Z623's are really really good.

        Anyone saying they're 'average sound' especially compared to the price, must be smoking something. They sound really really good.

        the m10 is the most popular swan system, although until this thread i had never even heard of them… big o/s perhaps ? i will have the m10's this afternoon so i will give my thoughts once i have them set up.

    jace88 on 07/01/2013 - 15:12

    Thanks. Ordered the z623 to replace my mum's aging set of Logitech 5.1 (the cheap ones which were always for $99 at EB back in the day). I've got z2300's which are pretty epic so I'd expect these to be pretty close or better than those.

    Lovin' the cheapness of Logitech's bringing bang for buck speakers. Pulled the trigger. I figure: if AU$30 buys such sweet notes from its little set one cannot go wrong with the Big kahuna. Obviously when it comes to critical listening I would be switching back to the trusty 595s as characterised by senny's h-fidelity, full resolution balanced cleanliness.

    I read most carefully the evaluations OB, WP and various editorials present, so I understand the case well that M10 would be the next most competitive in this pricing set. Though, upgrade choices, when have these not existed.

    So in the end, prompting my investment I stumbled on some soluble steps which should take musicality to the maximum, anyone interested in such beneficial steps.

    Although I don't share the system referenced by that reviewer [ Mac-mini], my investment in clean iMic USB audio $34_ebay means one can tone down dB_Bass just a little while set equaliser preferences on JetAudio (or whichever player) e.g. to push up the mids and bring these out again.
