Customers are saying

Customers value the superb sound quality and aesthetically pleasing design of the 3-1/2" Surround Loudspeakers. Many also appreciate the affordable price and ease of installation. However, some customers noted that the speakers are somewhat large and heavy, which may be a consideration for certain installations. The positive feedback on sound quality significantly outweighs concerns about size and weight.

    These are great sounding and nice looking surround speakers. Very clear but be aware that they are not light if you are going to hang them on a wall.

    Alright here's the story. I went to best buy to look at receivers in magnolia. Found a receiver that I wanted and the magnolia sales guy showed me these def techs. I fell in love immediately. The center channel is so crisp and clear. As the volume gets louder everything still sounds great. Needless to say I came back the next day and bought the 8040 center, 8060 towers, and the 8040 surrounds. These speakers are heavy so I know that they are great quality. Hope to have them a lifetime and truly believe I will. In addition these surrounds have dual speakers that point in opposite directions so the sound fills up the room.

    I bought these to replace some 15 year old speakers which sounded good but these just blew away my older speakers. I got a great price on them too.

    I had some small book shelf speaker with standard 1 speaker and 1 tweeter. Last year purchased bp 8060 front and center. This year I decided to get the bipolar surrounds. And don't regret it for a second. The sound amazing the sound it more defined, for full effects, and makes it sound like its 2 speakers side by side so it plays the sorround effects a lot cleaner. These are heavy look amazing on the wall but be sure to use anchors or on wall stud. The connection is really good.

    I was a little nervous at first about purchasing the speakers for the price but after I went to 2 diffrent stores to hear them I couldn't wait to buy them and get them home. And it was worth it.

    I purchased the CB 8040 as well as the BP 8040's. These speakers match their clarity and sound perfectly. I will likely also get the SB 9040's in the near future as they produce the same type of sound with even slightly better results. I love the bipolar design and sound environment that they create. I would highly recommend these if you're looking for a great surround speaker.

    My home theater system sounded like a million bucks with these speakers. It makes highs shimmer and clarity on midrange for spoken words. Best Buy ever!

    Just as I expected. The speaker's performance blew me away. Now I feel like I am in a theater along with popcorn and a big jug of soda.

    I love these speakers and have used them for over 8 years on our home theater set up in the basement. They are our mid speakers in our 7.3 speaker but you can just tell from lifting the product the pure weight and quality. Produces amazing sounds. Highly recommend

    For small surround sound speakers these joints can go! And they do it with precision sound. They can get loud too. Once you calibrate to get that perfect blend... that sweet spot sound.... what a great feeling. You just keep looking for action packed movies just so you can hear your system.

    Been wanting these for a little while, really glad I did. Changes the surround aesthetics with moving the sound both in and out. Wish had done a lot sooner. Matches wel with the rest of my Definitve setup.
