Summary:
I was buy this little speakers to use with a receiver yamaha rx-v663 connected to my pc via hdmi, this is my first hd audio system and I was try to buy the best stuff butt when I test it mmmm I was disappointed, the sound of the twiters and the subwoofer don't conjunction, don't exist medium range sound only high and low levels. anyway I was tested on music and the sound is worst than my cambridge 2.1 pc speakers, in movies is better take the low noises like swords, explotions or any fx sound very well, in games is acceptable.

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $220.00 from best buy canada

Summary:
I use these little speakers with a pioneer vsx-815s,and a pair of klipsch f-1 to help them out. They where very inexpensive so I bought them. I use them in my music room with my keyboard, dvd player, and soon the computer. Without the
f-1s helping them out they do not sound that much better than a good amplified
computer surround set. But these little speakers from Indonesia have
well made little speaker boxes. If you need a little surround set, do not have much
room in your room, and can these cheaply they will do. But, do not expect
great sound, even if you add a pair of f-1s the system falls short of good great
sound.

Strengths:
You can hang them on they wall. These have to be the cutest little
speaker set I have ever seen. The speaker grills are removeable.
They go very high in frequency response. Do not play them loudly
or you will get an ear headache. When used inconjuction with better fronts
(I have klipsch f-1's). Shut the little yst-sw015 sub off and you will get an
erie and spacious feel ( in seven channel stereo) which is different.

Weaknesses:
Like all modern day surround sets, just good for watching tv to hear that
surround effect. The modern day sets, in my opinion are robbing the
general public of a good old fashioned ten or twelve inch three ways of yester year.
(Like the yamaha ns-1000, reviewed elsewhere. I have a lesser three
way technics sb-10 that sound pretty good.)

Similar Products Used:
aiwa sx-avr2900

A surround speaker set with no sub. Picked them up cheap.
If you do not have any speakers at all, they will do. But, I do not
think that they are going to win any awards.

Moscode 402Au OLT stereo power amplifier Review

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
