Don't get me wrong, it has great sound and the sub hits much harder than my last one I've had over 5 years old that I only spent only $40 on.
However, I was picturing in my head "stunning" sound after reading all the positive reviews. The sound is good, but not stunning. It's better than my last setup (20 watt sub with 5 satellites) but not by leaps and bounds. I would have just saved my money and kept my old ones if I knew.
Still great speakers though, can't go wrong with them.
What's great about it: Sounds good. Not mind blowingly good though.
What's not so great: I was overly hyped about the sound.
