I have to agree. Those things are way too expensive for what they give you. If you want a high end, lifestyle type speaker, look at Meridian. That kind of speaker wouldn't be my first choice, but there's no compairson. I don't know what you are used to for music as far as equipment goes, but if you are not a hard core audiophile, you should be happy with them. For theater, they're great. You'll really like them for movies.
