Great for low cost speaker. They work fine with my home theater and just as good to listen to music with.

This is a great set of speakers for the price. They are nice and clear. They sound good at low and high volumes. They are light weight so they will mount on the wall nicely. Like all book shelf speakers they aren't bass monsters but they do sound alright playing music. But, to get the most out of these, match them is a small sub (I have a older Yamaha sub, and the newer version is still only about a hundred dollars). I was nervous after I purchased these, I didn't know if I would be disappointed with the sound or maybe if I should have gone and bought something at the local store instead so that I could hear before I bought, but lucky for me they sound great and I was very happy with this purchase!

An extraordinary value. I am using these speakers in a bedroom setup with an old Sherwood receiver and a Sony CD player. The midrange is as sweet as any I have heard at any price, and that covers most of the music I listen to in the bedroom. Of course you wouldn't play the Berlioz Requiem on these little speakers, but for vocal music, chorales, and chamber music, they are remarkably satisfying. I recommend them highly.

The clarity is really impressive for a speaker this size and price. It goes without saying that it will lack the bass of a larger model, but it's a superior quality sound. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.

I admit it, I am semi-obsessed with not spending a fortune on anything. It is all about value. So when it cam time to find some new speakers I spend way too much time thinking about the right choice. But it paid off. These speakers are a real bargain. Their big rich sound will make you happy and so will the price. Compared to similar bookshelf speakers they may seem at the higher end but that is the problem. These little speakers do not compare to other bookshelf speakers. They are far more robust and compare more accurately to expensive mid-size three-way speakers like the Sony SSM-F750H. I highly recommend the POLK Audio R-15 for you home.
