    These are really nice speakers to add to your 5.1 setup. I watched some high intensity shows on Netflix with great sound effects and they do provide a little extra to the listening experience. Not to mention I got them on sale for half off of their original price.

    These speakers completed my surround sound project and I couldn't be more happy. It makes an amazing difference with the right movie. Movies like Bohemian Rhapsody and Avatar are definitely show-off what these speakers can do with the right system. I highly recommend these speakers.

    I added these to my atmos receiver and I have to say it was a welcome addition. Even when just listening to music, they provide a much richer sound. They work well as atmos speakers as well. I especially notice it when playing some of my Xbox One games!!!

    Updated my surround system to a unit with Dolby Atmos. I needed at least two up firing speakers to enable atmos and these where on sale at the time. These speakers are amazing! the sound is deep, crisp and just what i needed for my system. Will be adding a few more.

    These speakers fit on top of the Sony tower speakers of the same model and look like they go together perfectly. They're an interesting alternative to installing in-ceiling speakers for Atmos. Would recommend if you're not interesting in ceiling-mounted speakers.

    Great small-footprint Atmos speakers that I placed on top of my Linn Tukan front speakers. The Atmos speakers come with brackets to attach them to matching Sony speakers and these brackets worked perfectly also for my Tukans.

    Dolby Almos surround enabled and I find these speakers just good enough to listen to my favorite vinyl records. I am starting a home theater and connected these to my sony receiver. Not so much good sound quality but a promising start for a mini home theater.

    Seem to be high quality, but I don't get quite the same Atmos effect of the higher end sound bar that we have in our living room. My guess is the higher living room ceilings allow the sound to bounce better than the lower ceilings in my "mancave". Not disappointed, but not as impressed as I wanted to be.
