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.

Good speaker but
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No holes for mounting or to attach to stand. Larger than polk t15 but sound quality and level is not above Polk-t15 which were cheaper and sound nice. I was buying this for rears. If you are a sony fan it will not be a bad purchase. I just prefer the smaller, mountable/stand use, and cheaper without compromise sound quality of the polks T15.

Listen to these before you buy them
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read a ton of reviews on these speakers before purchasing them and you’ll either love them or hate them. To a lot of people they have a very detailed and crisp sound and are incredible value for money. To others, like me, they make a sound that is really annoying and fatiguing to listen to.

Thought they came with wires
