Great phono starter speakers!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing highs with rumbling lowes! They work extremely well in my phono setup. They push out so much air that my banner behind them actually flutters from the air.

excellent for front or back speakers!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these to complete my surround sound system because my old speakes were towers that I cut in half to make bookshelf speaker out of. Although they worked, they didnt look good with all my new equipment. These sound amazing and will handle most any stereo systems output. The grille cloth is thin so there is not sound absorption to worry about. I have all the Sony core series equipment including receiver, center and woofer. These look good and sound great. The only thing is I had to pay full price as I missed out on the x-mas specials they were running but got everything else at half price!

Insane surround sound

Great bookshelf speakers

Great value even at retail price. Good for both TV and music. Compare these to much higher priced speakers and you will be pleasantly surprised. They also upscale well. Best for desktop or small to medium sized room.

Low barrier of entry to audiophile speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ratings on these on every site speak for themselves in the commercial market, but if you dig deeper into the audiophile world, these are frequently touted as one of the best bang for the buck speakers you can get. The price fluctuates quite a lot, so do some research and keep an eye out for the target range sale prices. I was able to get one of those and plan to fully void the warranty to make further improvements on the crossover- caps, inductors and resistors are in the mail.
