For bookshelf speakers that have quite an impressive weight of bass output.

They are not Bipolar either, like alot of the other Deftech speakers are.

Small, compact, clean tight bass that a speaker that size should not be able to reproduce.

I like them. I think they image well, they do not require a subwoofer.

Definatly take a listen if you can find a retailer.
For the price, in my opinion, they are a pretty good deal.

Personally, i think these would make an excellent 2ndary system, like a nice bedroom system. They would also be superb for Home Theater usage.
They are good budget speakers too, the depths they can hit eliminates the need for a subwoofer. Perfect for a dorm system or such.

For a main system, if i wanted to use monitors, i would probably go with KEFs

If you do not mind buying an additional subwoofer, i think you could get speakers that might sound a little bit better.

Remember, with these speakers you are paying extra for the subwoofer and such. If you already have a subwoofer, then spend that money on some good monitors without built in subs, then more of your moneyw ill be going to the actual driver and enclosure.

Ive always liked DefTech stuff. I used to have some of thier 2004tls, holy crap, talk about soundstage. The Imaging is not as crisp as i like, but for HT i dont think DefTech's done right can be beat.

that is one thing that all Deftech powered speakers have, is one wicked soundstage for the price. Very commanding.
