I've had them and I really liked them, for the price they're going second hand you really can't go wrong.

Just watch out with placement, they really need room to breath at the back because they have very strong bass for a standmount.

Thanks both of you.

i would echo mpapos comments. very powerful sounding standmount that needs lots of room to sound its best. good though...

I have owned mine for 11 years and have yet to hear any speakers that have made me want to upgrade.

I would add that they respond to good amplification and are not the easiest load but throw a huge soundstage and have awesome bass for their cabinet size. Work best with fast, grippy amps. I have used them with Naim (obviously) and Cyrus...
