Yeahhhh!

Reviewed by Toy (Tech Savvy, Audiophile, Practical, Movie Enthusiast) from Chi town on Jun 01, 2010

I've had them all. Sony, jvc, pioneer, klipsch, rca, kenwood, and maybe a couple of more theater systems I can't think of. Due to a series of unfortunate events, I had to put together a new theater system. I paired these speakers up with a panasonic 7.1 receiver and WOW is all I can say. I just smile the whole time I play it. I have a large living room and have not one complaint. Sport, blu-ray, movies, game shows, music was all thrown at them. PERFECT!!!!!!!! I'm a customer for life!!!!!! Plus I caught them while they were on sale. Now only if they would put the floor standing speakers on sale............

Pros:	Easy To Setup, Interfaces Well With TV, Clear Sound, Thundering Bass
Best Uses:	Living Room, Television Shows, Larger Rooms, Movies, Surround Sound Solution

" A lot of sound in a small package!"

Reviewed by Dave from Baltimore (Audiophile, Musically Inclined) from Maryland on Apr 13, 2009

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

The product shipped right away and was easy to set up. The sound quality is clear and was very responsive while viewing a blu-ray dvd. I would recommend a good A/V receiver to help reinforce the capabilities of the speakers. Although the subwoofer is small compared to others, it packs a good punch. I would recommend adjusting the tone via the knob in the back as well as using a coxial cable.

Pros:	Clear Sound, Interfaces Well With TV, Easy To Setup, Thundering Bass
Best Uses:	Living Room, Surround Sound Solution, Television Shows, Movies
Cons:	Subwoofer small
