The elements of extraordinary audio. At the heart of this system is our proprietary Direct/Reflecting® speaker technology, which re-creates a natural balance of reflected and direct sound for an experience similar to that of a live performance. This technology also allows Stereo Everywhere® speaker performance to fill your room with the brilliance of soulful jazz or the raw energy of a gripping drama. Each speaker features a Stereo Targeting® tweeter to create a sense of lifelike spaciousness and a 6½" woofer to reproduce the low notes with clarity, even at high volumes.
From the deep, rhythmic beat of a helicopter cutting across the sky to the uplifting songs of birds at dawn, the 201 speakers present a compelling audio experience. |
 Designed to fit in your life. Suitable for living rooms, dorm rooms or most anywhere you'd like to enjoy music and movies, 201 speakers take up minimal space and blend nicely with your décor. You can also choose accessories for even more placement options. |
