Good Sound Quality
Plethora of Connectivity Options
Wireless rear satellites perform flawlessly

Bass is slightly boomy

Performance
For testing the speakers, we coupled the speaker set with Creative’s Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro sound card. We ran the speakers through Alan Parson’s Test CD which has a variety of uncompressed sound tracks to check for all frequencies of sound i.e. the lows, highs and the mids. We also played DVD movies, THX test tracks and games like Half-Life2 and Doom3 with support for Dolby Digital.

The sound quality is very good. But there is a loss in detail at maximum volume. Anyway the speakers get loud enough before that happens and seldom you would be taking your speakers to those levels.

The bass reproduction is good too, but we found it to be a bit boomy. Due to that it masks the other frequencies of sound. This can be attributed to the nature of the enclosure. It’s a bandpass box. Completely sealed enclosures offer tighter bass. Anyway, our analysis is a bit stringent and the overall experience is indeed very good. With regards to the wireless speakers, there was no drop in signal or any kind of interference and they performed as good as their wired counterparts.

Conclusion
The speakers sound very good and the wireless speakers work well. There is a plethora of connectivity options from analog to co-axial to optical inputs. The only place where it lacked a bit, and we insist 'a bit' is the bass. The bass is slightly boomy and we would have liked it to be more tighter and accurate. The Z-5450 is priced at Rs. 32,500. Now, if you can live with wired rear speakers you have the option of going for the Z-5500s which are a good Rs. 8,000 cheaper, more powerful and sound better.
