I have the Logitech x540, and while they're not the prettiest speakers in the world, they work quite well for me. I have them hooked up to my iMac via Firewave, which is now discontinued as I understand it. You may have to look for speaker system with optical in, such as on the Logitech Z-5500 (which I use with my TV/home cinema set up). Those speakers are prettier and the whole system is more powerful.

I recommend both!
 
how can you compare the x540 vs the z560 (the z560 is drool worthy) :D
 
+1 For the Z2300

I have had them for nigh 5 years, and would still chose them over anything else logitech currently offer. The 5.1 systems are too much i think, more power than you'll ever use, 2.1 is just right for a computer setup. They've even put phase plugs in the satellites! Check out reviews on them, nothing but good news. :)
 
the x540s produce some very good sounds for the price. i have a set of them and x240s (also great) and the bass response is right on par with what you would expect for the price.

you should get the z5500s ;)
 
allthough it isnt logitech, this is a pair of beautiful speakers for the price, and the sound quality is great for the price.

Especially bass

the gray looks very similar to the imac / macbook pro colour
 
how is the z323 compared to the z506.. i live in singapore.. and ill probably order the z506 and wait for a few weeks. if the z323 is way beyond what ill ever expect.. then ill get that.. or the x540
