It's a Sony!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this Open Box an I save more than $100 on this quality speaker! The sound is great and it has enriched boss. You still need to buy a Subwoofer if you do not have one. This unit only has two woofers. I love it!

Fantastic sound!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I honestly don’t feel like I needed to spend more money on speakers! Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure the more expensive speakers sound better. However, these simply sound phenomenal to me. I mean just over $100 for a tower speaker is extremely reasonable. I honestly feel like they are worth much more than they cost, which is not normal for some towers that I feel are simply overpriced.

Inexpensive, yet great sounding speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are inexpensive speakers, $149.95 each at my local Best Buy store. I wanted to buy a more expensive set of speakers but the store did not have them in stock at the time, so I settled for these. However, I was amazed at how great they sounded when I installed them on my home stereo system. Very satisfied!

Wow!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great speakers. I already have the center and bookshelf speakers by Sony, these speakers just finished off my home theater on black friday and I couldn't be happier... At least not for the price I was prepared to pay. Sure, Klipsch are a cut above the rest but if you're looking for something for good value without sacrificing much quality, I think these are the way to go.

Great sounding speaker at a fair price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was cross shopping these Sony SSCS3 towers with the Klipsch R-26F towers. While I do think the Klipsch speakers sounded a little better in the store, they are physically much larger and more expensive than these Sonys. After getting the speakers home and trying them out with a proper A/V receiver and a subwoofer in a 2.1 config I feel confident in my decision to buy. They sound fantastic in our home and much better than in the store. Our family room isn't very deep so these do a great job of not feeling obtrusive in the room like the much deeper Klipsch towers.

Great Towers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At half price these were amazing when comparing to individual tower speakers costing well over 400 to 500. They have great detail handle all media content well only slight offset was lack of bass and that has all to do with positioning and eq as you adjust and can have slight feel of a subwoofer being on. Now, you add a woofer and you adjust for greater kids and these bad boys will handle anything with ease.

Sony-Core Series Dual 5" speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really decent size speakers for the size room I bought them for. I'm retired so I don't blast the rock n roll like I did a long time ago, but they're sound is very good. I would buy them again. They're hooked up to my Pioneer stereo receiver that I bought 30 yrs. ago. Rock On!

Sony speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I also updated and upgraded my stereo system with these Sony floor standing speakers to go along with another pair of brand new Polk speakers I purchased from eBay. Great sound, no distortion, bass really kicks. Another fabulous purchase and like I said, first time I totally redid my stereo system and I had to do it right for the last time.

Outstanding Sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a quality set of front speakers to replace some old ghetto JVC ones and I read a lot of great reviews before purchasing them. Sony did a fantastic job building a quality set of speakers for a great price. I had my eye on the Klipsch ones, but the reviews and the price made me reconsider and I’m really happy I did. Highly recommend!!

Great sound-- crisp, robust.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are excellent standing speakers. Don'tr be put off by the smaller size. The sound is crisp and robust. In general, I'm very impressed with the Sony Core Series. It's probably your best bet in this price range. In my opinion, they sound better than the Polks, and if you can get these on sale (every two weeks or so), it's a great buy. The cabinet isn't wood, so it could look better-- I buy my audio equipment for sound not aesthetics; so, in my opinion this is irrelevant--, but it's definitely sturdy.

Good value for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a pair of Klipsch R-28Fs in our main room and while these clearly do not match that quality and sound, they aren't bad for our smaller room (TV room). The sound quality is excellent, and while they handle mid and high sounds well, you'll likely still need a subwoofer for the lows if you like a little punch behind the low-end sounds. Excellent value for the price.

Sony Core Series Floorstanding Speakers Rock
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seriously great speakers for the dough. I bought a separate subwoofer for more base, but the woofers they have are just fine. I'm just a bit of a bass snob,

Sony Good sound, budget minded
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With the reviews on Best buy, these 'sticks' speakers are great sound. When you're seeking to fill a medium size room, with great sound, and want to enjoy movies in surround sound or stereo, these speakers exceed. I enjoy their size and engineering, Sony made a good product. Budget and good sound, If youre not an audio-snob, these speakers do it!

Amazing Speakers For The Price
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am super impressed with the sound quality of these speakers. They sound better than a few of my friends setups that cost WAY more money. They have amazing bass extension all by themselves, I'd be happy even if I didn't have a sub.

Sound is very good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these over a month ago and I am very pleased. I looked into various brands including Klipsch but decided to buy these because most of my equipment is Sony and they have always performed very good. I can honestly say this do sound very good indeed even at high volumes. I play my music in 2 channel stereo and it sounds outstanding with just enough bass to make me happy. I highly recommend these speakers if you are on a budget.

Awesome sounding speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, these speakers are a steel. Just because of their price, don't pair then with cheap receiver, since they shine with quality amplification. The highs are simply awesome, but the star of the show are the vocals. The bass is ok for music, but a subwoofer will be required for some genre of music.
