The Z-5500 system is really sweet can't go wrong there, read some reviews on it as well as the klipsch system.

The Gigaworks on the other hand isn't a setup I'd consider as I've had one and didn't like it at all for different reasons. Air turbulence at the port, mediocre sound quality, even the control leaves a lot to be desired, to mention some. The overall quality just doesn't compare to the two other systems. IMO

The Z-5500 can be founf on Newegg for a incredible 269.99.
The Z-5500 also has Optical inputs (megaworks doesn't) and DTS and other decoders.

I am oredering the Z-5500
