Weren't the Z-560's a 4.1 speaker system?

If they are then the Z-5300 since it's a 5.1 system.

I noticed the 5300s were the recommended speakers in Anand's latest High-End System Guide.

Both are good, and pretty similar in build from what I've read. I think that the z560's are boomier from what I've heard in stores... depends if you want 4.1 and 5.1 really~
I have the z560's and I like 'em a lot, but 5.1 would be pretty nice to have for movies and such...

The Z560s are better. They have a lot more power to them.
My friend had the 560s, something in the sub broke so he RMA'd them and got the Z5300s as a replacement. He isn't happy at all with the 5300s.

gotta get an audigy 2zs to use the THX logitechs to their max potential

Z560 was replaced by Z5300.
Logitech reports that a lot of the RMAs they get for Z560 are for subwoofer problems.
