Jim Warren van AnandTech heeft vandaag een review over de nieuwste speakerset van Logitech online gezet, de SoundMan Xtrusio DSR-100. De SoundMan Xtrusio DSR-100 bestaat uit een 52Watt subwoofer, een viertal 12Watt satellietjes en een handige remote control. Dit alles heeft Logitech een paar stijlvolle behuizingen verwerkt. Volgens AnandTech ziet de set er niet alleen goed uit, maar klinkt hij ook erg goed. De conclusie is dan ook dat je waar krijgt voor de 179 dollar die dit setje kost :
The physical design of these speakers is worth a little bit of mention as the enclosure design influences the sound some. Instead of squat cubes, the satellites are taller with a slight angle designed to project the sound up to a listener’s ears. The extra height allows the source of the sound to be above desk clutter; there’s less to interfere with the listening experience this way. The subwoofer is also designed in the taller, skinnier style; if it’s under the desk, there’s definitely more foot room.
The sound of the system is very strong. It seems to have overcome some of the tonal problems that plague satellite/sub combinations to keep a level frequency response. This allows it to serve as a music or DVD playback system when it’s not serving its primary role as a gaming system. The functionality helps reinforce the value of the system.
The Logitech Xtrusio DSR-100 system is an excellent option for a 4.1 speaker system. It provides a combination of both sonic quality with power that will satisfy many users. It is primarily suited to gamers looking for 4.1 compatiblity for use with games offering four channel output, though will extend to other applications with ease. At $179, the system represents an investment in quality, though the value is still strong. To sweeten the deal, a full retail version of PowerDVD that otherwise would be $49 is included in the package. The system will not disappoint.
