Accurate balanced sound, moderate SPL
on March 10, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
These speakers sound very good. Sound is balanced with good bass for their size. Mid-range and highs are transparent with good stereo imaging. The only reason 5 stars not given is because these are almost just quite not loud enough for me for the rated 20W RMS/channel: these speakers' design appears to favor accuracy over efficiency (SPL). A good value for Deal of the Day pricing I paid.

Will this radio play music and otherwise respond to Alexa requests from Echo Dot?

I cannot be 100% on this, but I think it should be able to play music via the Echo Dot's blue tooth connection. (But, I do not have an Echo, so cannot be sure.)

The speakers do not have to be connected to each other, do they? My speakers will be connected to the receiver through in wall speaker wire, and will be separated about 15 feet from one another.

YES, they 'must' be connected to each other - with the provided speaker cable. These are "active" speakers, with the built-in amp (rated 20 Watts RMS/Channel) for both L and R channels located in the "Left" speaker. As the left speaker only has LINE LEVEL (RCA, 3.5 mm) inputs it should not be driven with a speaker-level signal from your receiver. If you are going to 'drive' your remote speaker set-up with your receiver, you should shop for 'passive' speakers (not self-powered, like these Model: NS-HBTSS116's) For the same $ballpark ($150~$200) I would recommend bookshelf speakers from Pioneer's Andrew Jones speakers Pioneer SP-BS22 (~$129/pair), Wharfedale - Diamond 10.1 (Black) (~$249/pair), or say Andrew Jones ELAC B6 (~$279/pair).
