Great for music and movies
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve got these in my living room, paired with an older Sony 5.1 receiver. They handle everything I throw at them really well — music was my main concern, and these don’t disappoint at all. They sound great in stereo with the turntable, especially in the highs with the dual tweeters. And they’re still the hero of the 5.1 setup for movies — crystal clear highlights from the corners of the room. They look nice, they sound great, and they’re at a good price point. Tough to beat that value,

Great sound from little speakers.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was shocked by the sound than comes from these little guys. Works great in the shop to take up very little room.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Title says it all! These are fantastic set of bookshelf speakers if you're using them for analog sound/stereo. The price to performance ratio, at least when I got these on sale, really can't be beat.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't think these speakers would do it. They jam. Great job Sony. On my workbench at the job, and man, they jam. Got them hooked up to an old school Realistic receiver and it sounds so good, strong, and crisp.

Good for the Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent lows and highs. To me they had the best overall reproduction in the Best Buy selection of comparable sized speakers. I'm thinking there is no need to spend more unless you are willing to spend twice that much. At that point, you will start hearing a significant improvement in sound. Between $250 and $500 seems to be a no man's land.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TYPICAL SONY QUALITY, Big Clear and Crispt Sound from Bookcase speakers. rated 100 watts.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat budget speaker for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Reasonable price for 3 way speaker. Balance treble, and mid range. Need to add subwoofer for better bass control. Overall sounds good within mid volume to pretty loud. Works fine for karaoke too.

Really nice speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have bought Polk, energy, and Klipsch speakers within the last year and have returned them all as I did not like the way they sounded, but not these Sonys. I hooked them up and played some music off my phone and was really surprised by how smooth these sounded to me. These Sony bookshelfs are keepers and really a great bang for the buck.
