Default Logitech Z-5500, anyone have them?

This past weekend, my brother blew the center channel on my current speakers (listed in sig). As the old expression goes "you break it, you buy it". Anyways, I ordered the Logitech Z-5500 speakers which are arriving tommorow. I was just wondering if anyone in here has them and what they think. 98% of the reviews on newegg is nothing but people loving them. Just thought I would get some input from others, thanks.

Ok so I got these things hooked up, wall mounted on Friday. Honestly, and I am an audiophile, these things are insane. I honestly can't beleive they were only $219. Let me put it this way, I can only turn the volume up HALF WAY without risking going deaf or my internal organs shaking to the point of death. The subwoofer is f'n huge. Again, I can only have that 1/2 way up without risking shaking my house too bad (things upstairs falling). @Shupola: If you want a system that goes so loud you can't hear yourself think, definately invest in these. All i can say is, hands down, these are the best computer speakers/bang for your buck on the market. Games, music, and movies have never sounded so good.

Seriously, convince her to let you hook em up.....Give her "special attention" until they come (the speakers, get your mind out of the gutter).....You will be so taken by the sound quality, you will sit there and $h!t your pants....which will then cause her to leave.....the bottom line being....you get your speakers blaring with no distractions....god damn.....thats a beautiful plan.....im about ready to go get a girlfriend just so i can try it.
