Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $50.00 from ebay

Summary:
I bought these in December 2004 to use as rears in my surround sound setup. Castle Richmond 2's were being used as fronts. After a bit of experimenting, I discovered I much prefered the sound of the Durham's to the Richmond's, and they were swopped around. The Durham's are very "open" and produce a wide soundstage and have great depth. By far the best bang for buck product I have bought so far.

Strengths:
Massive soundstage Lovely, open sound Loads of depth Bargain
