I have a set of Logitech X-520 speakers. As I gradually turn the volume up from 0%, the right speaker comes in at 5% while the left speaker comes in at 10% and they sound even at about 20%. About 10% is the volume I would listen to music quietly, but it is clearly louder in the right speaker at this level. This is the case no matter what I connect them to or how.

So I bought a set of Logitech z623 speakers and they had the exact same problem. I returned them for another set and they had the same problem too.

So my question is: Does every set of PC speakers behave this way? If so, why?

Thanks

    So all your three speaker sets have the same "problem". Did you consider checking 1) Your computer? 2) Your sound settings on the computer? 3) Your ears?

  • 1) 2) Yes. I have tested it with my computer, xbox and phone, and with different ways of plugging those things into the speakers. I can also plug various headphones into said devices and it sounds fine. 3) Yes, the right speaker (with the volume control on it) is definitely louder no matter how I arrange them.

    It's certainly not a common issue. I've dealt with dozens of sets of speakers without seeing it.

  • Sounds to me (at equal volume on both sides) like a good reason not to buy Logitech speakers. May 7, 2013 at 21:55

It is a common issue, many Z623 owners are experiencing it. I had returned my first set because of it, and my second set also has it. It's even mentioned in reviews.

if you have a soundcard or some other sound feature, set the DB up for your one that's behind. Mine does the same thing. I have Klipsch ProMedias.
