    z-5500 vs HT Speakers

    Wattage has not much to do with sound quality... seperation and clarity are EVERYTHING... if you have neither then you are experiencing what is referred to as a "muddy" experience... the only way to acheive clarity is with seperation of each spectrum of sound ie: lows, mids, highs... high end...
