 A BIG set for a small price July 30, 2010
C. J. Chaillou (Atlanta, Georgia)
I have absolutely no complaints about this speaker set when it comes to sound quality. While researching this product alot of people nit-picked the speaker wire connections and even the size of the wire, stating that they weren't up to par, but truth be told the setup works exactly as it should. The speakers are certainly larger than I was expecting (I assumed all surround speakers were about the size of a can of soup because that is all I had seen in stores). The center speaker is the only one that has given me grief though because it is large and has to sit in front of my tv which can be distracting. The two front-side speakers are also large but can be set away from the tv or on the floor to avoid this problem. The surround-side and surround rear speakers are a bit smaller(think large dictionary-size) and manage to blend into whatever setting you put them in rather well, just don't expect them to dissappear into the decor. Lastly the subwoofer, it has enough boom to handle the big explosions at half volume. (The level setting can be adjusted on the back of the sub) My setting is below half and I still haven't turned the head unit volume up all the way just because I haven't needed to, even though I like loud music. Listening to music out of these speakers is a little below average but with some fine tuning from your head unit you should be able to make due, it's really only the mid-range that suffers. That being said, the climax of your favorite movie will really blow you away coming out of this system!
 Onkyo SKS-HT540 Speaker System July 27, 2010

AMAZING speaker set. i have this hooked up to an onkyo 7.2 receiver. the sound blows me away, even at the max of 92 watts on my receiver. no distortion at all. great for medium-sized rooms like dorms or apartments. the surround speakers seem like they are less powerful than the center/left/right, but that should be expected. extreme value for the money. a major plus for the included wiring; about 8ft for each speaker plus an RCA subwoofer wire. i plan to use this system for the next few years.
im confused....... July 14, 2010

I have had these speakers for 3 years. I hated them since the day i bought them. Unfortunatly, because they are so big and bulky, they were too expensive to return. I wish i was able to take a picture, but my camera is not working. Please look at some of the photos that other people took. Three of the speakers are over a foot long and 7 inches width, and 8 inches front to back.
I bought these 4 years ago when i upgraded my tv to a plasma. My old cheapy, off brand, system worked great but it was not hdmi compatable. Now that my $500 onkyo reciever is no longer working, i am glad to ditch the entire system including these horrible bulky speakers.
Also, another point... they dont even sound very good. My cheapy speakers from my previoius system was much, much better sounding.
Dont waste your money and let the other reviews fool you. These are just the worst.

Exceeded expectations, we were up and going in 20 or so minutes. The base looks more obtrusive in the pictures than it turned out to be. Very pleased with selection.
