Strength:
THey don't look that bad (at least mine are clean)They handled the power.They look decent.
Weakness:
heavy,sound could be crisper for $1200 set of speakers! I just don't know how to feel right now...yes i do...hosed.I just got pair and I am listening to them right now. They are not "bad" speakers, but certainly not worth $1200. I have a 600 WT DTS receiver with optical outs. That makes most speakers sound good.I pumped up the bass and volume and they handled the load without distorting..that is worth something. I have a cheap pair of KLH's on my digital receiver and these sound much better. The real test will come when I play a DVD. I feel hosed because I can't find them in stores and the warranty is no good (no receipt), and I got conned...the worst. Similar Products Used: JBL |

Weakness:
chinese made junk. pathetic mid, weak tweeter and woofer. the box is about all it was worth, around $50. This stuff is trash and a rip off. Luckily I only paid $100. I laughed in their face when they showed me the list price of $1,200. That's more than a Bose Theatre System! Similar Products Used: JBL, JVC |

Strength:
pretty good sound to them
Weakness:
kind of heavy and where bought off the street I agree with the frist reviewer, when you buy these speakers your pride does get hurt, but if you stop and listen these speakers arent that bad. They sound pretty good, I don't think you should however pay more than 250 for these speakers. I enjoy them Similar Products Used: sony |

Strength:
Great Highs, Mids and Lows, Beutiful wood and design.
Weakness:
None. I bought these speakers just like everyone else and absolutely love them. I cant find anything wrong with them. Im looking for another pair but I dont want to get jipped. Mine have BLUE logo's on the bottom of the grills that say AUDIOFILE. I've seen pairs that just have AUDIOFILE in black text under the grill, on the actual wood. Maybe these are the fruads. Im interested to find out. |

Strength:
Not really much. Box makes a nice bench and it looks pretty and polished.
Weakness:
Low quality, cheap, no crossover, all frequencies mix into all the speakers. These speakers suck. I was tricked into buying them. I am angry and wish I could get a refund but that won't be happening. I should have known when i saw the obviously hand-sawed protective fronts. Similar Products Used: "Make your own radio- for kids" |

It sounds dynamic & transparent, and true. The vocal sound is great, it fill the house even with low volumm, just right not to bright or harsh. Before I heard of image, soundstage, and other techni-term that I don't know but listen to these speaker definately give me the experiences that someone paid for $3000. My speaker label "Digital Audio" and make by Apex, handing 30-350 watts. I love it. |
