8. Logitech Z3

Logitech has successfully adorned its system in pale wood and brushed aluminum. The systems looks even better by taking off the grilles protecting the satellites.

The subwoofer is small and happily includes the power input. On the other hand, all the other parts-such as satellites, controls or input - plug into a multi-pin input, which is bad-mannered enough to keep losing contact: one little tug on the wire and everything comes to a halt - this flaw needs urgent attention.

A single cable to be shared by the satellites, remote and the audio cable is not a brilliant idea either as it is all difficult to organize. It is also a shame too that the audio cable cannot be separated from the rest.
