Is somebody can refer me a link for a good file to test my 5.1 Logitech Z-5500 sound system?

Thank you

What about these?
Trailers Dolby, DTS, THX, SDDS, Windows Media

You would need to load them info a DVD software player or file player configured for surround.

Hope That Helps.

They are 5.1 surround test files. Some of them are in *.VOB format that you need a software DVD player to open.
