Do your homework! You will see 99.9% of reviews are 5 stars and rightly so! These bookshelves have no rival at this price range. Tight base, very balanced, and absolutely stunning. They are power hungry, so no less than 140wpc recommended. Bravo Andrew Jones ! I still haven't fully broken them in and the sound can only get better. My advice is trust blindly because I wasn't able to find these on display anywhere.

These bookshelf speakers do live up to the praise that they have received from the professional technology press.

Sounds a lot larger than the speakers actually are. Enormous soundstage. Goes low enough that a subwoofer might not be needed.

I can't believe the excellent sound of this speaker for this price . absolutely satisfied with my purchase .

Designed by Andrew Jones and did not failed. Never regret of buying this speaker because I'm very satisfied from what I'm hearing from this speaker. I don't think I will need a separate subwoofer, very powerful bass. Very satisfying high and mids. I love this speaker.

I read the many positive reviews of this model and watched Zeos Pantera speak the best phrase to sum up these boxes: “What you are getting [with the UB5] is IMAGING.” Compared to the B6, which these replaced, the UB5 has a much better ability to place musical instruments above, below, and between each speaker. Truly a step up from the B6, with the right recording this speaker will treat you to being able to hear and actually point to each musician playing in front of you. There are numerous audiophile grade recordings that will entertain your ears through these speakers like no other. I will say that they have their use and place, and are not the best for complex rock tracks-actually reminded me of the invisible veil that people refer to the B6 as having. Not distortion, but just a veil over the upper range at medium to loud volumes. My UB5s are connected to my Yamaha AS801, an amp with a reputation for being clean and neutral- with plenty of power to spare. Great speakers for jazz, yacht rock and audiophile acoustic recordings.

I have keen hearing and these speakers are phenomenal! I have the entire UniFi Series complimenting my 7.2 Surround setup. Elac is competition at its best within the price range. Amazingly RICH sound! You'll have bragging rights with the bookshelfs for sure! Enjoy!

I've had these for about two weeks and can honestly say they sound better than my even highest expectations were for them. I have them in a 5.4.1 Atmos configuration with these the right and left fronts. The room correction software on my receiver configured them as "large" speakers even though I would have guessed them to be "small" After listening to some action movies and pop music I understand why they where. These things kick bass for the size they are. The imaging right to left is great with little to no sweet spot - great for movies. FYI I have them hooked up to a Denon X4400h receiver and it has no problems powering them. These are keepers.
