Perfect For Budget 5.1.2 System
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I started with a 5.1 configuration to a Sony STRDH790 Receiver. Atmos didn't sound right. I didn't know I needed additional speakers. These fixed the problem. All spatial audio sounds great now!

decent atmos front speakers
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased these to go with a Denon 9.2 Receiver. Goes great with 7.1 speakers to make it an Atmos 9.2.2 system. Works great and helps with the immersion while playing UHD Atoms movies.

Don’t pass on these for Atmos, 7.2 or 8K upgrades
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality and inexpensive upgrade from 5.2 to 7.2 with these chunky, thumping Atmos speakers. I knew instantly when the music began to flow out of them as a stereo pair (I tested them first as a 2.1 setup), that I had gotten an outstanding deal and really added some depth and reinforcement to my home theater sound system. Can’t wait for my new Yamaha RX-V6A Receiver to arrive so I can get even more noise complaints from my neighbors.

time to upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a 5.1.1 surround sound system. My receiver is Atmos capable. Now there seems to be more content available so I decided to add these speakers. For the money it was a good purchase. I can tell the difference.

Pretty Great for Atmos
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seriously good value for upgrading your non-Atmos/DTS:X speaker setup to one with spacial surround sound. Just make sure your receiver can process height channels and if yes, these Sony speakers are seriously a great way to complete the 5.1.2 / 7.1.2.

These are ok but not when up firing.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought I needed more height channels and then I thought that these were a good enough price and I still agree with myself on both points lol. The audio quality of these speakers is fine, nothing super fancy but height channels aren't supposed to trade blows with full range towers and speaking of towers.. you would do well not to put them on top of a tower and have it fire the audio up at your ceiling because it doesn't really reflect back and sound like a height channel... At all. However they are also easily wall mountable and come with any hardware you may need. If you mount them above the towers right and as close to the ceiling as possible then the effect is quite convincing even with just 2 if them which is impressive since height channels technically belong overhead as in in your ceiling pointing down. I ended up ordering another set of them so now I have 4 total. I mounted 1 near the ceiling over my center channel end another in the same place but behind where we sit. Then I put one (again up high) on both the left and right sides of the room.. It's even more convincing this way if your receiver can handle that many height channels. The new spiderman movie sounded amazing with height channels and so do video games and surely plenty of other things, especially if your receiver has the ability to measure spatial audio instead of just your normal flat plane speaker setup. Definitely recommend.

Posted .Hi d0x360,
Thank you for taking the time to write such an in-depth review of your experience with the SS-CSE Speakers. While we are pleased you are satisfied with the overall sound quality of these speakers, we are sorry if the Dolby Atmos-enabled speaker (installed on top of a speaker) setup did not live up to your expectations. However, we are glad that you were able to achieved great sound experience after mounting them on a wall- and that you ordered another set of these speakers for your home theater setup.

We appreciate you and your feedback, and thank you so much for recommending our SS-CSE Speakers!

dolby atmos speakers
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first I thought I didn't need the center speaker because I already have the book shelf speakers. So I went out and bought a pair just to prove myself right and that I didn't need one. Well I was wrong this speaker is loud and clear. If you don't have them I suggest you get it. you will be missing out.

Good speakers to introduce yourself Atmos sound.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were very easy to setup if you already have the Sony SS-CS5 or the SS-CS3. The dimensions are exact where you can place these speakers directly on top of the ones mentioned. The audio quality is really good and it can add a nice dimension of height to the sound of certain movies that take advantage of Dolby Atmos. I’m really enjoying these speakers.

Perfect for Atmos setups
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have these for my front firing Dolby Atmos setup. They provide great sound, perform at a high standard and the rubber feet on the bottom do an amazing job at keeping the speaker still. I have these resting on floor towers, that have a sloped top and a glossy finish. These speakers do not move at all due to the rubber grips on the bottom. A small feature that ended being one of my favorite parts of these speakers.
