I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

A person gets used to everything. For a decade now, humanity has been degrading in the field of technologies that satisfy the high needs of the human soul. Unfortunately, acoustic technology has not escaped this either. Everything is digital on sensors and minimum wages (in terms of size). I bought a set of Sony: 790th res, atmos, subwoofer, center and these beauties. For movies, games - super! Very cool sound. For music, there are nuances: - Phase inverter. Wrong set - hum. And they are always

Pros
  • Look good. Strict design. Is there sound. Some, no, but there)). There are basses. There is a sub, but I turn it off for music. small room 13 sq. M. - extra sub. Source - Sony 790 receiver
Cons
  • Don't expect mega sound from speakers for 150 green presidents. If you don’t listen to vintage acoustics and more expensive speakers before them, then everything seems to be normal.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I use these acoustics with the Denon 800 receiver. The sound was simply stunning, of course, with an eye to the price. Very clean and transparent, Freddy's voice just gets inside, and Magdalene's aria began to sound completely new. I had a lot of different acoustics, both expensive and cheap, there is something to compare. In recent years, technology has gone far ahead, I did not follow them. I'm a longtime Sony fan, I had acoustics in 2022, they didn't sound so hot, to put it mildly. I decided

Pros
  • Bravo Sony! The sound surprised me!
Cons
  • At this price, there is not and cannot be.

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

Bought to replace the old SS - H550. The difference is certainly obvious, the new ones sound much better. Play with a Denon AV receiver. Connected with an acoustic cable with a section of 2x1.5. Appearance is normal, no frills, ordinary bookshelf speakers. I recommend to purchase.

Pros
  • Good sound. For its size, the sound is very balanced and pleasant. After warming up, I even had to turn down the bass on the receiver.
Cons
  • No. Got what I wanted and even more.

You can take it for this price, with a subwoofer it’s generally excellent, the bass is enough to the ears, the bass is tight, nothing rattles even at very high volumes. But do not try to replace serious acoustics with them. It won't work of course. Pros below: Good solid speakers. Well made, very aesthetically pleasing. Got cons: Bought for my teenage son. By the way, there was already a subwoofer from the same series, it happened. That's why I took it so that there was acoustics of one series,

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Acoustics was bought to complete the second stereo kit for a small room (the main kit was formed on the basis of a two-stroke tube) and was originally planned as a "budget" one, for evening and "background" listening to MP 3 files, including. For these purposes, better acoustics for the money, perhaps, can not be found. Even MP 3 is reproduced clearly, legibly and musically, as far as it is generally possible for such a format. On the pitch - DVD Pioneer, amplified. Onkyo 9110, the cables are…

Pros
  • Great speakers. Clear, legible sound without distortion, space and timbres of instruments are well transmitted - high sound and musical resolution. The acoustics actually play. Despite the modest dimensions and the small main speaker, low frequencies are reproduced very worthily. It is impossible to find fault with the build quality. They look good, the "appearance" is neutral, the finish matches the price. A small masterpiece of the company. The price-quality ratio is extremely high, many brands sell junk for that kind of money.
Cons
  • No.

Where have you been all my life?

I bought them at Revain last week for $118 (including shipping). How good can a pair of speakers be in this price range? Well, let me tell you. The word amazing comes to mind. I've been an "audiophile" for 40 years. My methodology when buying speakers has always been to listen to the best speakers available that I couldn't afford, and then move on to speakers that are within my budget but sound as close to my "dream" speakers as possible. . Simply put, these speakers are reliable, well made and

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • There are new competitors

HOW COULD IT BE?: Speakers

I'm not a techie or music lover, but I love and can definitely tell good audio components from bad, especially speakers. I have a couple of very expensive home theater setups that use voltage regulators and Sony ES components with ridiculously expensive connections and speaker wire to Polk LSi speakers and Polk subwoofers. My desktop setup is very modest and uses a Fosi Audio, V2 50x50 DAC. P1 amp and tube preamp with upgraded tubes. They are all connected with custom made RCA four star cables…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Not bad

Amazing soundstage and detail, bass is a bit lacking.

Wow these speakers are amazing. The first time I turned it on I almost cried, I can't believe a $100 tower can produce such a huge enveloping soundstage with such resolution and clarity. Completely drained. To be honest I feel like surround sound isn't even needed with these towers, the soundstage is so amazing. I started with a set of two Micca mb42x and a matching center channel. These speakers produced great detail and what I thought at the time was a great soundstage, however they produced…

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Hard to say

Read if you must, but buy if you trust.

I'll start by saying that I have a lot of experience with loudspeakers of all kinds and quite a bit about loudspeakers and how sound works. And with most speakers, even $300+ sets, there are a few common issues that usually put me off as a listener. Speakers in a box and sounds like another mismatched speaker placed on top of your much better mid/low range speakers. The tweeters are overbearing and sound "pale" or metallic. Including dust protection plate. The bass is strong but lacks the right

Pros
  • also understandable for old people
Cons
  • A few little things
