Thanks for the article. It's good to know that there are alternatives instead hooking up to a full blown stereo system.
Will you be able to control the volume of the Logitech Z623 using the TV remote?
Cheers,

Now this is a good system for small setups. But I have to wonder with those Home theaters in a box going for close to nothing and around the price of this unit, well, it's a hard sell.

HOWEVER, Most of the time, this will be the perfect setup for people that just want to HEAR the TV and not deal with the wires being drug to the back.

I bet is sounds better then most home theater in a boxes as well.

I got the Philips because I did not want my nice system around the kids. Whoa.. Make a music lover cringe. But for simple tv audio. Works great.

Sad that most people will still not buy it for fear that it is to complicated to set up.

THere was a guy on new egg who bought 2 polk bookshlef speakers and was complaing that there was nothing in the box to set them up with his computer.

With Total "Intellectuality challenged" people out there in the wild like that, I fear that as soon as apple gets into home audio, I think that it will be over for most people. No one even cares any more about this stuff it seems. And even more are to scared to even think about going 5.1 unless it all comes in a box and is virtually set up free.

Really, Logitech should start to bite the bullet and make a true easy system with all wireless speakers that plug into outlets, use WIFI for sound and be as simple as just putting them next to your tv and that it. Until then. Audio for the masses is going to be a hard sell for people who spend most of the time at home and watching the movies they love on their crappy speakers built in the TV.

Really, PEOPLE still can't HOOK up a SPEAKER without calling TECH SUPPORT???

omg..

Most People don't even know what a RCA cable looks like?

Let alone the idiots that can't even tell what a Ethernet cable is and THEY CLAIM TO WORK IN I.T. !!!

The Big box audio stores are not even carrying much stuff for audio anymore. What they do have, they put them on shelves like CD's.

I can Honestly say that they pay more attention on people stealing the CD's then they do about product placement for audio.

Tv;s are kind of like the golden ticket at audio shops now
