Possible Logitech Z-5500 Replacement
Hi, I purchased a Logitech Z-5500 in 2008 and was pretty happy with it up until recently. Lately the control pod will produce a constant buzzing noise when sound is not going through it and if I hook it up via optical connection I will get a really loud buzzing noise when i'm not playing sound through it. I have ruled out my sound card and cables being the problem and believe I need a new control pod. Instead of paying about $140 for a new one on ebay I was looking for a new system that would give me better mid-range and highs than my current system. This is what I was currently looking at http://www.bestbuy.com/site/onkyo-5-1-channel-home-thea.... Would this system be an upgrade or would I be better off just buying a new control pod or possibly building my own 5.1 system?

the Z-5500 is a sweet set but if you are looking more into high and mid range speaker buying 5.1 receiver and choosing your own speakers might be better.

i am not a professional in audio but i thought i would post my opinion and let you know the link was broken, if you need more help you can always ask.

Hm, I guess your right about the link not working, not a big deal though. I decided I'm probably going to go with building my own 5.1 home theater system as you suggested, thanks for your answer.


no problem and good luck building!
