SINGAPORE— January 13, 2010 — Logitech has announced a significant extension to its line of multimedia speakers, delivering four new systems with 360-degree sound – including the System Z323 and the Logitech® Speaker System Z523.

Unlike standard PC speakers that use forward-firing drivers, the two new Logitech multimedia speaker systems feature 360-degree sound, or omnidirectional acoustics, which creates a substantially wider sweet spot – an especially helpful feature if you often move your computer around your home or office. With speaker drivers that face forward and backwards in each satellite, these four new speakers are designed to transmit sound more consistently over a wider range of space so you never miss a beat no matter where you are in the room.

2.1 Speakers Systems: Logitech Speaker System Z523 and Logitech Speaker System Z323
You can transport yourself into your music, movies and games with the Logitech Speaker System Z523. The Z523 speaker system includes two sleek satellites and a 6.5-inch down-firing subwoofer, which delivers deep lows for rich bass you can feel. With 40 watts (RMS) of power, the Z523 system can fill your room with bold, dynamic sound. And in case the neighbors call to complain about the noise, the Z523 system offers convenient on-speaker controls so you can quickly turn down the volume.

If you don't need the walls to shake but still want good bass, the Logitech Speaker System Z323 is for you. With 30 watts (RMS) of power and a ported, down-firing subwoofer, you'll have everything you need to create big, bold sound that puts you in the moment. For your convenience, both the Logitech Z523 and Z323 multimedia speakers include an integrated dual RCA jack and a 3.5 mm jack so you can connect headphones, your Logitech® Squeezebox™ network music player, a gaming console, DVD player or iPod® with ease.
