Amazing!

 

Too bad NE can't get the CC-10's for a similar deal! :)

NE has these for an amazing price right now, these things sound fantastic on there own for music, and integrated nicely into my exhisting Energy 7.2 system. I will be adding the CC-10 to round out my LCR setup and can't wait. I'm running these with (2)...

None that I can really think of, they are deeper than you'd expect maybe 12-15" deep so this should be a consideration for placement

Fantastic AND A Great Deal

 

I have these hooked to my 7.1 setup. Onkyo receiver, CF-30s for front, Energy TAKES for surround and center, and a Behringer subwoofer the size of a Buick. No, these aren't studio monitors...they are for home use. Still, they give the Mackies in my...

OK, I won't bore you with audiophile snobbery...although, I could. LOL ; Great sound for all purposes, even music ; These go on sale at NE often. My cost was $219 for the pair, delivered ; No need to bi-wire. (Is there ever a need to bi-wire? No.) ;...

None that I can see. Of course, a decent sub is a must for serious listening...but that is hardly a con. That is something you should know when you start dabbling in the world of higher level products ; Again, not a con, but for most people, these are...

Excellent Floor Speakers

 

I use two as front speakers in an open room home theater setup. Conditions are not ideal, but these speakers put out clear powerful sound. There is no comparison between floor standing speakers and bookshelf speakers (these replaced Klipsch bookshelf...

Excellent reproduction and overall sound quality. Break-in a must for a good sound. Not as tall as other competitor models. Bi-wiring is a must

Should include better instructions and manuals. Bi-wiring is a must and my brother (who also bought them) couldn't figure out what bi-wiring meant from just reading the manual. Not as efficent as similar Klipsch models

Great Speaker

 

After researching floor speakers for about 4 months, I ended up purchasing these from Newegg for ~$150 each - a deal I could not pass up. These speakers are an amazing addition to the Pioneer VSK 1020-K and a no brainer if you can find that price for...

Amazing range of frequency response for the price (compare them to the M60's, etc). Great quality, well built, sleek (smaller than their competition). Big sound, very impressed
