Pros: Small, Light speakers,great for wall mounting. Smooth sound after tweaking ( Pioneer 1019 receiver ) Good, tight bass,on a small Subwoofer. Blend right in with LG TV.

Cons: Piano gloss is fingerprint magnet ( but how often will you touch 'em ) Bad spring clip connections on sats, I mean really, really small holes ( had to strip down monster cable speaker wire to fit ) granted the signal that is being sent to the sats does not NEED thick wire...but thats what I already had. Sub is not a house shaker.

Other Thoughts: tweaked out system in about 30 minutes with Mcacc auto cal on Pioneer 1019 receiver, was alittle off ( bright ) toned down highs with small ( one click ) on the X-curve feature and I was off. Tested with Pink Floyd's Pulse DVD as Im very very familier with it. detail was insane, and the bass was very nice and never Boomy! Then tried DTS version of Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, again tight, good voices,never harsh, great effects, fantastic consistancy between speakers, Sub blends well with sats, and the bass should be enough for normal folks, otherwise you can always upgrade.
Newegg as always, had it to me before I could even begin to wait for it, price was fantastic with the freebies that was offered at the time I purchased.
