Hello. I just want to share my experience with what I think are an absolute bargain in hifi. Purchased a pair for 129.00 US$. Currently using with Marantz PM & CD6004. I can not believe the level of detail and weight these produce for this ridiculous price. The overall performance is what one would expect in MUCH MORE expensive bookshelf speakers. They're so well balanced. They were designed by Mr. Andrew Jones, formerly of KEF and Infinity. For an entry level system is tough to justify spending more money. I'd love to see a review by WHF. Audition them. I'm sure you'll take them home.
