Advantages: 4 spekaer bindings, Great sound, Great looks

Disadvantages: no variety of finishes

What first attracted me to these speakers was the appearance. Big, tall, slim speakers
with a tweeter and then 3 6.5 inch woofer cones. Each woofer cone has a small 'w' in
the centre, which I thought looked great. But still you cant buy speakers on looks
alone. So I asked for a demonstration. The salesman put on the eminem CD and played
'Stan'. The treble at the start sounded amazing and when the thunder kicks, you can
feel it in every bone of your body. Once I had heard them I knew I had to buy them.
The first party I had, everybody asked me what they were, where I got them. Literally
everyone there wanted to go and buy a pair. They all thought they sounded great
aswell. Overall these are brilliant speakers and are bi-wireable and bi-ampable aswell
which gives an increase in quality. I would urge anyone who wants to buy a new pair
of speakers, that they go and try these.
