from Circuit City Summary: Picked these up on sale at circuit city. Impressed by the sound. I also liked the CR67, but the 67's are rear ported and I intended to hang these on the wall. What's not well publicized is that the crc7 can be mounted vertically or horizontally with built in hardware. Also, the logo can be rotated to make it look okay. Ended up buying 3 crc7's to go with plasma. The passive bass radiator had a much better sound than trying to wall mount something with a rear port. Overall, was a good compromise for sound, style and price. Strengths: Aesthetics
Clean highs
Great for movies
Passive bass radiator sounds better than alternative when wall mounting.
Can be mounted horizontally or vertically
Sounds much better than original CR# series Weaknesses: Lacks some musicality
Steep rolloff at around 90 hz means that integration with a subwoofer is a challenge if you want deep theater oriented bass and wish to plug the high bass gap for music. Similar Products Used: Boston Acoustics CR5

After various incarnations of all the above, the CRC7's are staying
