Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

There simply is zero distortion, zero hiss, zero fuzz. The sound is very respectable for a bookshelf hifi speaker.

Ch avr. Now the dialog is understandable. I like the fact it comes with 2 different sized top plates.

Try placing these 3 to 5 inches from a wall or in the corner of your room. I use these with a pioneer sc35 receiver and they sound great for the money. They sound nice through my laptop.

I use two for front speakers, one lying horizontally as a center speaker with its woofer on the right so its tweeter can be above its midrange. Two for surrounds, and two for surround backs. Running 6 speaker stereo in bedroom.

For a budget of under $200, these are a bargain. They perform far, far better than that price bracket would suggest. I'm a serious fan of anything made by yamaha, so i figured they would be a safe buy.

Cons

They are too lightweight, the cabinet is very thin and cheap.

Quality

The quality of the sound and the construction is excellent

Sound quality is good with a wide frequency response

At first i was very disappointed by the sound of them

They also sound only as good as the quality of the recording you are reproducing so in that sense they have good fidelity

Price

Yes but for 24 times the price

Almost identical set still available for same price i paid in 94

Competitiveness

Refppxyo2ovdtbproductdetailsth1 this stand worked perfectly for my yamaha ns6490 3way speakers

I purchased these speakers for our sun room and had a difficult time finding any speakers with an 8inch woofer

But theyre not 1star speakers out of the box

I have to take issue with a 1star rating of these speakers by rantin n ravin
