    I use these as rear surround in a 11.2 system and they do a great job.i did connect them to my main amp as-1100 and they sound good for the price they would need a sub if used as a main front speakers. They have a great sound stage but they have no low end. In my opinion. but my mains are rf-7 III. So I really can't compare them.

  • Solid little bookshelf

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very good speakers at the sale price of $144/pair. I suspect they would be tough for anything else in that price range to beat. Sound is very clear. Be aware that, although I wouldn’t say they are harsh, these speakers are very forward and bright sounding. Cymbals and some female vocals may be a bit too in-your-face if you have sensitive ears. Low end response is entirely respectable for a 5.25” bookshelf. Overall I’d say these are better for home theater than music, but they are a great all around value for the money if you are looking for a clear and bright sound and don’t want to break the bank.
