Logitech Z-680 or Z-5500

[baseballplayer217]

Are the Logitech Z-680 the older version of the Logitech Z-5500? I have been online looking at reviews and I kinda getting this impression. But I am no expert on the subject. If they are different which model is better? They both seem to have the same specs so this may sound like a dumb question.

Thanks,

Yes, the Z-680s are the Z-5500's predecessor.

Thanks, another question. I plan on hooking the Z-5500's up to my notebook computer, would it be worth it to pay the $60 and get the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 sound card? Is there a noticeable difference?
