The price is reasonable until you need to send them Air Freight.
By them local if possible and save a ton.
You'll love them.

But seriously the Z-5500 is pretty overrated a bit like crysis

Overpowering sub for starters the satellite speakers arnt great either and they have had their problems with fuses blowing.

If all you wanna hear is bass then go for them
You can always just turn down the sub.

Or you can alter the acoustics of your room to create "bass traps". I don't know that much about audio but there are many ways to manipulate how the sound waves move about in your room to create your own personal 5.1 / 7.1 set up that works for you.

norman turning down the sub doesn't solve the problem. the sub has some nasty peaks in it that just make it sound overpowering. you lower the volume you lower the sound everywhere so now the peak sounds a little more in line but everything else now is not loud enough.
