 Nothing beats these bookshelfs for the price! Aug 24, 2010
For as cheap as these were I was not nearly expecting the sound quality I got with these. For an audiophile on a budget these have a lot of bang (and thump) for the buck. I would recommend these to anyone for any part of their system.

These were replacements for floor monoliths that finally needed to go. The sound fills the room, not the speakers themselves.

excellent Aug 08, 2010
My previous speakers were altec lansing 2.1 computer speakers, so I cant *really* compare, but my goal was to find open-air speakers which could match my nice sennheiser headphones, which these guys mostly (see bass) do.
Overall: The sound is very clear, and all the sounds that should be there are there--nothing is muddy, and there is good frequency response for the whole range. I'm using an onkyo home theater system with a digital source, but even without control over the source volume the speakers can be heard, and heard *clearly*, through the whole house. Its remarkable how balanced the different frequencies are.
Treble: Im not a fan of treble usually, but these speakers do a good job of making all the sounds quite sharp--something which is lacking in both my multimedia speakers and my headphones. I personally took 2 db off the top, but the treble wasnt so irritating that I had to turn the knob all the way down, as with other speakers.
Mid/voice: Voices are extremely clear, and seem to come right to the front, just as they should. The singing definitely isnt covered up by overdone drums or guitars.
Bass: The notes that it can play, which is most of them, come out extremely clear and can be heard in every room. When I punch the volume up, the bass shakes the walls--and it does so without any distortion. The problem is that (my guess) in an effort to limit distortion and prevent damage, they blocked off frequencies below ~35 hz. I made a few sine waves to test frequency response...50 and 60 were great, 40 was good although volume started to drop off, and 30 was almost inaudible. I have found a few songs where this causes an issue, but only by comparing back and forth with my headphones (which can do 30 but not 20). Still, 3 or 4 songs isnt really a big deal, and a subwoofer isn't hard to find if it is a big deal.
all in all, great speakers and definitely worth the cost.

 Sony Speakers SS-B3000 Jul 04, 2010
I am fine with the speakers but I did not read the description well enough. They are titled "bookcase speakers" So I imagined them to be smaller and not 22inches tall. My responsiblity. They are OK.
just amazing for the money Jun 30, 2010
i bought a pair of these last yr after christmas to go with 2 more klh 8in towers just like this. they never really got used because i had one big stereo in my room that i used and that one with the 4 8s in the living room for movies and such. well i sold the rest of it and now i have the sonys hooked up up stairs in my room. the are excellent. i usually turn music up pretty loud and go down stairs so i can hear it all over the house. these speakers do great on the low mid and high end. i listen to rock and country. i throw it a rap song every once in a while for the bass and it sounds good no matter what u throw at it. dont expect the pounding bass from these speakers because u wont get it. it has great sound on the low end just not pounding. i have 2 12s and 2 15s i use for the pounding. the only thing i dont like about these sonys are the screw type things that hold the speakers in. the dont really have any grooves so u cant tighten or loosen them. since ive had them for a yr and have always had it up loud when i used it the mid in one of them has came a little loose and has a slight rattle when i turn it up. not a big deal, its the only con about these speakers

Consumer Reports Says Buy Your HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2008) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2007 and June 2008. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its December 2008 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com and Crutchfield.com came closest.
