    The sound quality is amazing especially for the sale price I got it for. Great purchase and the hook up was super easy.

    Truly, a great set of speakers. Easy to install with magnetic face covers. The sound is sharp and clear even at high volumes. When you’re ready to go all in this set is a great option for consumers.

    Great sound at a great price. Some folks said that the sub was lacking but it hits pretty hard if you place it in the right spot and tweak the overall settings just right.

    Surprisingly Good

    I went into these with a large dose of skepticism. They are always on sale, don't include a proper center channel, and just didn't appear to be of very high quality. Needless to say, I was happily proven wrong in every area. I bought these to fill a prewired new construction living room which is not my primary viewing area. I wanted a mid tier system which was just good enough to fill the large open area with music or movies. I paired it with a cheaper denon avr I picked up for $400, expecting something about on par with my bose 700 soundbar setup i have in one of the bedrooms. Once BB installed it, I connected the apple tv 4k and it was instant bliss. Sound is crisp, surround doesnt feel like its all height speakers, and it fills the room with a solid, high quality sound. All for a whopping total of $1100(including receiver) I honestly couldn’t be happier with these.

    We made this purchase along with a 77 inch television. The Best Buy rep we worked with informed us that these speakers were on sale but not advertised (at the time of purchase). Regular price was $2,299.00 and we got them for $699.98. The huge sale price was cause for concern, but the sound quality is undeniable for us. Their first test came after installation when the Geek Squad guys put them through their paces. But the "real" test came during our Super Bowl party where all attendees fell in love with our surround sound and talked about it nonstop until they left. Several attendees stated they were going to Best Buy the next day to make the purchase and to us that is the ultimate compliment for our purchases.

    Subwoofer isn't working. It -appears- to be on, but I cannot get any sound out of it. I plan to try a different amp to see if my old surround isn't up to stuff. The ceiling speakers sound good and install easily.

    I’m not big on technology but I can honestly say this sound system makes us feel like we’re in the actual movie theater! I didn’t understand how the speakers work, but after an explanation from the Total Tech guy, it made perfect sense & I started to enjoy it more. We’ve been watching everything from regular TV shows to animated movies to action packed movies. We love the quality of the sound & the distinction of sounds from the different speakers. With certain sounds such as rain or wind, it seems like it’s actually coming through the house! We didn’t get the top of the line sound system but this one works perfectly fine in our great room with is open to the kitchen & rest of the house. If you’re looking for a great sound without breaking the bank, this sound system is perfect!

    Best value in the market for ceiling speakers and subwoofer! I'm a huge fan of Sonance and Sonos products, which are all over my house, inside and out.
