Both of these speakers are around the same price point. Wondering if anyone has any info on which may be better or are they just made for different reasons? ie: gaming/music?
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!
Logticeh G51 vs Z-5300e

I've owned the Z-5300e for a year or longer. They are great for gaming and music. They have more power than the G51 but the G51 are newer. I'm very happy with the 5300e and I think you should get those.
The only problem is that I had is with the rear speakers. The cord is not long enough to have them in the rear. I had to get extensions so I could place them in the rear. After that I've never looked back.

Do you think I would need a really good (expensive) sound card to make these sound great? Ultimately I would like to have a sound system that can play Dolby Digital. I think I remember reading somewhere that you need to purchase a digital converter to get true dolby digital.
So I guess the question is. Can I buy a cheaper sound card and spend more money on a digital converter? Maybe I'm way off...wouldn't be the first time.
The way they connect to my pc is basically in an analog way (green,black,beige cable). I have a Creative Lab Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS they are Dolby and THX certify:

They have provided my with great sound over the years. Most MoBo with their integrated sound cards have very good sound. When I play games on my PC I'm able to tell if there is someone behind me or an explosion from far off so I've never upgraded. The new X-Fi say that they are much better but I it's hard to really distinguish the difference in sound quality. I would say get an older card like mine but maybe you should ask someone who recently upgraded to those X-Fi cards.
