Great front theater speakers.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Sony bookshelf speakers are fantastic for the price especially if you can grab them during one of their 50% sales twice a year. I matched these with the Sony SSCS8 center channel and now I have a wide, full featured soundstage for my home theater setup.

Great addition to 7.2 surround sound.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wonderful bookshelf speakers. I am using these in a 7.2 surround sound as the front enhancement speakers and they work great. They are clear, crisp and handle the power well. I never thought speakers this cheap could work so well. i am very pleased.

Great speakers for vinyl
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product came very quickly and delivers great sound! My old speakers were blown out and once these were connected, I could hear how far the technology has come with Sony. Whatever genre I'm listening to sounds spectacular! Would definitely purchase again.

Sony core series 5
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think these best value for the money speakers I have heard in a long while. Use them with a subwoofer for home theater, but if your l just listening to music you so not need on. The image very well front to back and side to side highly recommended.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This (with the center speaker) completed my full surround sound instead of investing in a new wireless sound bar. Easy old-school wired connections. As Expected quality from Sony.

Good sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good for size nice sound doesn't weight much .......
I would recommend this to a friendOutstanding sound for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers are well worth the cheap price ! Yes, they are Sony and made over seas but the overall build quality and sound are what makes them shine. Bought them for a small setup in the bedroom to listen to vinyl using just these speakers and a 1970s pioneer amp. Couldn’t be happier.
I would recommend this to a friendOpen box...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical to purchase these speakers because the box was labeled "open box" However after I got home, I was unsure why they were labeled open box because the seal was not even broken. Definitely glad I took a chance. They sound great although you will have to buy banana plugs and make new cables for them.
I would recommend this to a friendGood for price
