Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

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

Pros

These speakers sound great and exhibit plenty of gain (powered by a smsl sa50 amp with google chromecast audio) mainly being used for all channel stereo, or dolby atmos. The sound matches my klipsch setup.

They are very well balanced and i would call the sound neutral (don't like overemphasized or bright highs). They sound natural, fit in with the klipsch and the crossover sounds really good. They sound a little on the dull side, but that could be due t... Read More

The imaging on these is amazing! These are heavy duty and handle a lot power. These speakers are beautifully made and are solid and heavy. Two different styles by bogen but with ale model number.

The r-8c is a great speaker, they certainly rival much more expensive speakers. These speakers are great in both scenarios. Great sounding speaker. Would definitely use again. The sound is incredible.

Cons

Little to no bass and kinda of flat sounding. Midrange is terrible. Didn't test others. I'm not sure what previous reviewers are talking about.

These speakers are beautifully made and are solid and heavy.

If you notice the plastic on the clamps is not pre threaded, i tried to do the first one and it was a pain.

During construction i ran 4 pairs of speaker wire into the ceiling and down the wall where i would eventually put my receiver.

Price

My ears are very pleased i bought the 8" instead of 6" for under $300.

In overall this speaker for its price is awesome.

I auditioned these speakers against highly regarded $100 speakers and these came out bounds ahead.

I knew what i didn't want, high cost, coaxial speakers, bulky looking grills, excessive power consumption, ect.

Shipping

I reached out to micca customer service and they were amazingly quick to respond and offered to send me a new one as soon as th... Read More

They do ship with a small "key" to ease the covers off, however.

Packaging/appearance

Surprisingly the box didn't make as large of an impact as i had expected.

One came damaged and with a bad crossover.

Competitiveness

The r-8c is a great speaker, they certainly rival much more expensive speakers.

By comparison, the micca r-8c has a much more neutral sound, it is better off center, and excellent bass.

I have had boston acoustics, and polks which cost a lot more than these, and i don't believe sound any better.

I also did a side by side comparison between these and the polk mc80's .
