WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT | |
The high end manufacturing maintains optimal on and off axis response they sound pristine and are priced in the middle of todays price range making them fantastic value. |
Despite being made for a larger set-up these guys hold their own impeccably well, although we would suggest mounting as part of a 2.1 system to get a little lower bass. The proprietary Tractrix technology disperses sound and deadens unwanted vibration to keep the highs crystal. |
