Second pair.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I already have a pair of these so when I saw these go on sale again I couldn’t resist. Sony nailed it with these. Not top shelf but will do the job with right placement. Good sound with highs and lows.

excellent sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great value with really good sound. Easy to set up and attractive pair of speakers.
I would recommend this to a friendMeh.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers are OK. They're a little bit behind other top shelf speakers, but still do their job. They're nothing great, but they're OK if you're not too picky about speakers. I prefer the BOSE 301s.

Okay Speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Okay speakers. However, I returned them because I did not like them. I do not like the three-way speaker style. I am going to get a 2-way speaker instead.

What you’d expect for the price and size.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you simply need basic speakers that have no punch or dynamic range...these are your babies. They sound adequate enough for my 80yr old parents but if your looking for deep rich highs, miss and lows...look elsewhere.

||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wife made me get rid of my stand-up units from Technics so I decided to replace with a smaller footprint. They're okay but lack compared to my mother's Boston Acoustics from 15 years ago.

GREAT SPEAKERS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.THESE SPEAKERS ARE JUST WHAT I NEEDED> GREAT SOUND AND PROJECTION
I would recommend this to a friendTotally Amazed!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to purchases a pair of these while on sale, just to test if my cats would mess with bookshelf speakers, knock over, damage, etc. before spending big money on a real nice pair. After unhooking my Monitor Audio Bronze towers and hooking these up, I was dumbfounded.. Right out of the box, no real difference in sound. Had the same airy, sweet highs of the MA's C-Cam tweeters as well as the smooth, uncolored mids of the MA's midwoofer. Bass was surprising as well being taught and full without the cheap cabinet, boomy, muddy bass I was expecting. My jaw dropped to the floor as I sat there just after a few hours of run in time. I couldn't believe my ears.. I have them paired to a couple of Emotiva mono blocks with a Rega Cursa 3 preamp. All Straightwire cabling. If you're on a budget and want a really good pair of bookshelf speakers, try a pair of these. You will not be dissapointed. I don't think that I will be looking for replacements anytime soon..

Get them on sale
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you get these for half off, which they regularly go on sale, then it's a void deal. They sound ok as rear surrounds
