Customers are saying
Customers highly value the Core Series 5" 3-Way Bookshelf Speakers, particularly praising the amazing sound quality, notable bass, and clear highs. The speakers are also appreciated for their compact size, ease of use, and reasonable price. While the design is considered simple and nice, a minor drawback is their relatively heavy weight.

Really good sound for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Both the sound and size are really clean. Really good highs and a decent full mid range. The lows are a bit lacking, but hea... they are bookshelf speakers after all. For a really nice sound pair them up with a good sub and then the room will come alive.

Good sound at a reasonable price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once I purchased the Sony 3-way Bookshelf speakers, it was like "wow". It was then I realized just how much sound I have NOT been hearing. My old speakers were no match compared to the rich, quality sound produced by these Sony's. Sony products rarely, if ever disappoint.
