About this deal

The Logitech G560 is a 2.1 PC speaker set with RGB lighting. It features the company’s new Lightsync technology, which changes the colour of the light to reflect what’s going on in your game, or to match what’s on your monitor.

These allow the speakers to be controlled from the game you’re playing, opening up a whole new range of possibilities. Some are bright, obnoxious and impractical, but there are some real gems; my personal favourite is Smite’s cooldown timer effects, which visually display when an ability is ready to be used. mouse mats, the Logitech G560 boasts an array of RGB lights that provide intelligent ambient lighting when you’re playing games, watching movies and listening to music. The G560 has a quoted 240W peak and 120W RMS output; that’s not as much as the 400/200W claimed by the Logitech Z625, but it’s still a hell of a lot of power. It’s certainly loud enough to fill a large living room, or even entertain an entire flat. The Logitech G560s are clearly a very targeted product. Having flashing RGB lights that far surpass any keyboard or mouse is certainly going to garner much attention. It’s a shame, then, that Logitech appears to have made some fundamental mistakes that could have been avoided with a little more user testing. A software update can likely fix many of the problems.Now everybody has different preferences, of course, and there are plenty of users that will want to crank up the bass. However, in their default state, the low-end rumble of these units washes out everything to a rather comical degree. My biggest complaint is that all of this can be quite distracting, and while photographs and YouTube videos will make it look incredible, in practical terms, it isn’t quite where I’d like it be to be. LGS also features an EQ with a handful of presets for different game types; Flat (default), FPS, MOBA, Drop the Bass and Cinematic Gaming. But as well as being able to select one of these presets, you are free to create your own profiles using the Advanced Equalizer.

The lighting itself is super-bright and colourful, and while there are numerous standalone effects from which to choose, things get interesting upon enabling in-game integrations. Smartphone, MP3-Player, TV, Tablet, Game Console, Desktop PC, Blu-ray Player, Notebook, Audio System, CD/MP3 Player Logitech’s G560 is amongst a new breed of ‘gaming speakers’ appearing on the market in 2018 – but what makes a 2.1 speaker setup specific to gamers? RGB lighting, of course. Like If you don't have any headphones or use a second audio device, press the power button on sections 1 to 4 to turn them off (otherwise you might end up applying the equaliser twice to your speakers!).

There are no lighting elements on the subwoofer unit, but on each speaker there are four bright RGB LEDs accompanied by strip LEDs within hollowed-out chamber elements. Each of these sets of lights can be uniquely illuminated.
