SBP-BS21

 

These speakers are aimed at the buyer who is interested in good sound. If you want something that doesn't advertise its presence (Bose cubes) these are not for you. Bookshelf speakers is what they are. They deserve to be mounted on stands well away...

Price, Sound

Can only play so loud. Sound slightly boxy. Limited bass

Almost Audiophile Quality

 

For the price, unbeatable.

Low Cost for Great Sound ; Speakers are very fine for quality, near audiophile music listening. Short on bass, excellent mid, decent high end ; Very open sound, with instruments and voice clear and true ; Excellent in a living room situation, would...

Not great for nearfield situations. They need distance from a wall (all ported speakers are like that) and they need some decent seperation to truly enjoy the sound

Pioneer SP-BS21-LR

 

I bought the floor and center speakers and I really like them. When I got these I was disappointed. These guys can't compete with the front 3 speakers. It made sound like most of the sound was coming from the front speakers. At best, these could be...

They look nice

I wish they had a place for mounting. I ended up having to screw into the cabinet, which I did not want to do

detailed and transparent as nearfield monitors

 

paired with a quality (but not necessarily high powered) amp, I'm finding these pretty optimal as monitors for mixing and sound design. Again, some roll-off, so you need to double-check with headphones now and then, but let's face it, any powered...

great value ; just about all of the sonic accuracy you need ; not fatiguing

their size and shape make them a bit cumbersome to integrate into an audio/recording station ; highest highs and lowest lows are rolled-off ; fairly directional which might make a difference for basic home stereo use

WONDERFUL SPEAKERS!

 

WHAT A WONDERFUL LITTLE SPEAKERS, FOR MY HOME THEATER! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

GRILLES DOESNT COMES OFF

Consumer review (newegg.com)

At this price...Go!

 

A serious quality spkr. at this size costs 10 times as much! For just one!

Yes I have these! The negative reviewer missed many points in speaker design. #1- the plasti-shell mounting is for fast and accurate assembly, using the lowest cost driver frame, It is not correct to upsize a driver when vented. What you do is...

Vinyl. You can peel it off & do elegant veneer. Just do paper-backed veneer
