Excellent Surround Sound Performance for a Reasonable Price
An excellent speaker system for a medium-sized room (ours is 18 X 12 = 216 sq.ft. and carpeted). Voices are clear, music is very good and the sub-woofer is robust. We were able to use the speaker wires already in place from a previous system; but if you're setting something up for the first time, you may have to buy some. Just check YouTube for some pointers if necessary. Given that the speakers received excellent ratings from virtually all reviewers back in the day, I learned that the key to success is the amp/receiver. I found an Onkyo TX SR393 on eBay and it's a perfect match. There were some Yamaha units on the list of possibilities too. Just review the photos carefully and make sure the connections on the back of the unit are the ones (and types) you need. (After reading a bunch of surround sound installation reviews, I was a bit apprehensive about making everything work. However, we had no problems whatsoever.) After the installation, I was able to adjust the the levels and tones of each speaker through the amp with settings displayed on TV. Also had to adjust the sound synchronization to match the person's lips; but once that was done, it applied to all inputs and could be left alone. The highest we've had the sound level is 54 out of 100. Overall, I'd say we saved a total of $300 - $450 on eBay compared to buying brand new components. Watching blu-rays, DVDs and TV is significantly more enjoyable with this system.
