The little speakers with the big sound.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers were a pleasant surprise they are little speakers, but they deliver a big sound, especially in the mid range area, voices guitars…anything in that range, sound, crystal clear I swear when I close my eyes I could almost picture the artist performing in my living room just for me, they are the best purchases I ever made in my life, if you buy these speakers, I guarantee you you won’t be disappointed you’ll be surprised, but you won’t be disappointed.

Sounds great.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these speakers not expecting to much but I was pleasantly surprised. The sound is crisp but it still has enough bass to sound good. Set up was very simple. Took about 5 minutes.

Great sound, perfect size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speakers are the perfect size for a cabinet, blending right into the space. The sound quality is just as good, if not better, then the four foot speakers they replaced. Love them and will buy again for a basement sound system.

A little big, but sound great!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these along to upgrade from Yamaha satellite speakers I had hooked to Sony STRDH720 7.1 Channel 3D AV Receiver and Samsung Ultra HD 4KTV UN60KU6300FXZA. A little bigger than expected, but great accompanied with Polk PSW505 sub and matching set Sony center speaker SSCS8. Clear as day, crisp sound, with great highs and lows. Had no complaints with old Yamaha center, satellite speakers, and sub previously had, but this set up blows it out the water!! Better more complete quality sound. Keep in mind these are bookshelf speakers and a decent size. Using them as left and right speakers on VIVO stands. Quality sound without having to overpay..

Great Value and Sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The upgrade I needed. Changed out old Bose cube speakers to Core Series. Not the same highs as the boses, but mild and low end blow the Bose out of the water and highs as fine for my taste.

Crystal clear (still planning AVR setup)
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used as 2.0.2 (matching Atmos, with AZ3000ES @ 4-OHMS) _____ sound is crystal clear. ***Will need to actually USE A SUBWOOFER*** (I just wish grill was built stronger = fabric is cheap @ too thin) ______ (FASTER, Even cheaper) buy on Sony's website with military discount = pickup @ BEST BUY (since rewards program is gone and no military discount)
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Speakers for Price!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers are excellent pair for price. Great sound and size for placement in my decor. You won’t be disappointed. They were set up in store and I had opportunity to Hear what I was buying before I wired the at my home.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat entry level bookshelf/computer speakers
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers were built properly using components that only an audiophile would know about. Yes these are cheap MDF boxes and yes the parts are Chinese. That doesn’t mean they weren’t built properly. They have film capacitors and has a nicely designed 3way crossover. A subwoofer is slightly needed to compliment the bass however it’s good the way it is.
