1. Introduction

The Logitech Speaker System Z323 with Subwoofer is designed to provide immersive 360-degree sound for your music, movies, and games. This system projects audio evenly in all directions, ensuring a consistent listening experience throughout your room. It features versatile connectivity options, including a dual RCA jack and a 3.5 mm jack, allowing easy connection to various audio sources.

2. Package Contents

Verify that all components are present in your package:

  • One (1) Subwoofer
  • Two (2) Satellite Speakers
  • Power Adapter (integrated with subwoofer cable)

3. Setup

Follow these steps to set up your Logitech Z323 Speaker System:

  1. Positioning the Speakers: Place the subwoofer on the floor, preferably near a wall or in a corner for optimal bass response. Position the two satellite speakers on either side of your listening area, ensuring they are equidistant from you for balanced sound.
  2. Connect Satellite Speakers to Subwoofer: Connect the cables from the satellite speakers to the corresponding ports on the rear panel of the subwoofer. The right speaker cable typically has a 9-pin D-sub connector, and the left speaker cable connects via an RCA-style connector.
  3. Connect Audio Source:
    • For 3.5mm Jack: Connect the 3.5mm audio cable (often integrated with the right satellite speaker) to the headphone jack or audio output of your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other audio device.
    • For RCA Jacks: Use an RCA audio cable (not always included) to connect your gaming console, DVD player, or other devices with RCA audio outputs to the dual RCA input jacks on the subwoofer's rear panel.
  4. Connect Power: Plug the subwoofer's power cord into a standard electrical outlet.

  • Power and Volume Control: The main power switch and volume dial are located on the front of the right satellite speaker. Rotate the dial clockwise to turn on the system and increase volume, and counter-clockwise to decrease volume and turn off. An indicator light will illuminate when the system is on.
  • Bass Volume Control: Adjust the bass level using the dedicated knob on the rear panel of the subwoofer. Rotate it to increase or decrease the bass output to your preference.
  • Headphone Jack: For private listening, plug your headphones into the 3.5mm headphone jack located on the side of the right satellite speaker. Plugging in headphones will mute the speakers.
  • Auxiliary Input: An additional 3.5mm auxiliary input jack is located on the side of the right satellite speaker, allowing for quick connection of a secondary audio device without disconnecting your primary source.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your speaker system:

  • Liquid Exposure: Keep the speaker system away from liquids. Do not expose it to dripping or splashing.
  • Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation around the subwoofer to prevent overheating. Do not block any ventilation openings.
  • Cable Management: Avoid kinking or sharply bending the cables to prevent internal damage.

6. Troubleshooting
