I just picked up a set of these speakers for a small stereo system in my kitchen. I wasn't expecting too much from them since the specs are nothing spectacular, but was I ever surprised! They're not even broken in yet and these babys sound good. Very clear with a surprising level of bass. The speakers are only about 3 1/2 feet apart from eachother (I have yet to mount them on the wall further apart) but the two speakers seem to disappear into a very wide wall of sound. Not bad for 200 bucks...
