from Audiogon Summary:
A very solid bipolar surround speaker. Even without ideal placement creates an incredibly diffuse rear surround field for movies and multichannel music listening. Really helps improve the experience at less than ideal positions. I was really impressed with the bass output of these bad boys, definitely more than expected out of a surround this size.
I hooked them up to the B speaker output at first to listen to with 2 channel music. I was very surpirsed at how good they sounded. Other than the bipolar design, they would be a very good front satellite when paired up with a good sub. Midrange seems to be lacking a little, but as surround speakers, this shouldn't be a huge concern.
Treble response is good, although not great. Not overly bright as some aluminum domes can be. Generally a warm pleasing sound from them.
So far my biggest beef with these is that the mounting bracket sucks. It is very difficult to mount these using the supplied bracket. I ended up using a small shelf bracket instead, so not a big deal though.
At $100 for the pair (used but in mint condition) I doubt I could find anything better. Strengths:
Bass output, bipolar design, aesthetically pleasing. Weaknesses:
Midrange, mounting bracket. Similar Products Used:
Energy, Wharfedale, Acoustic Research, Klipsch
