I have this entire system with the Towers and a SVS SB16 Ultra.

Sounds Absolutely Amazing. I am sure I can take my house off the foundation if I really wanted to.

These Pioneer speakers are amazing for the price. Can't imagine better sound.
I am in market for a decent pair of computer speakers. From what I see it does not look like I can use these without some sort of receiver device. Can someone please confirm?

Also these are available at walmart too for same price. Better than Newegg if you need to return for some reason!

These centers are quite tall. I switched to a mount type setup so I can lift the TV above the center speaker.

This is great deal for anyone wanting a entry level home theater setup. Just need a subwoofer and a receiver; which can be had for additional $300-$400.

How do you position a center channel under a TV that sits on a cabinet with no shelves underneath? Do you have to buy a stand or other piece of furniture so that the TV clears the center? This thing is about 7" high. My TV stand lifts the TV about 4 or 5 " off the cabinet

I have this complete setup w/ the additional atmos speakers that match the towers and love it!!! For the price, you simply can't beat if. I'm running a monolith 10" sub and can literally shake the house down lol.

Agree with the comments. Not sure if Atmos is worth it. Need to have the right ceiling texture (flat) and the right distance. I have a BIC F12 subwoofer paired with these driven by an Onkyo RZ630. Zero complaints. Plenty of reviews out there that cover the right crossover points especially for the center channel.

I got the BS22-LR when it was on sale for ~$50. Didn't sound that great to me, but they are cheap. They have an annoying peak around 6 KHz that hurts my ears after listening for a while. With some EQ to take that out they're fine for TV/Movies, but not quite what I would want for music. These will sound better than just about any soundbar though. They don't even come close to my other speakers (C-Notes from Parts Express), but those cost me about $120 and required DIY assembly so that's not a fair comparison.

Whenever I see these crazy low prices for quality brand speakers it always makes me wonder what the build cost is.

The BS22 paired with Lepai 2020Ti is a great desktop setup, the sound stage is much better than the previous BS41, and the timbre is more neutral and flat (I had to upgrade the tweeters on BS41). If you could find the SW8 or SW8-mk2 to crossover at 90-110Hz, nothing else can beat the price.

I also have another set of BS22+C22+SW8 for the 65" Vizio hooked to an old 7.1 Yamaha receiver from Craiglist, sounds fantastic.

I have these speakers for my home theater they do a decent job and I finally got the floor speakers about two years ago from fry's for $68 a piece, that was a steal.

I also got the Pioneer SP-BS22-LR Bookshelf Speakers from BestBuy when they were on sale. They are hooked up to a SMSL SA50 50Wx2 TDA7492 Class D Amplifier and a Sony subwoofer. It sounds amazing.

I bought this in 2015 for the same purpose. The center fits in there perfectly. I removed the swivel option though. It was only $30 when I bought it.

This would be a much better option. Using something like this, depending on the size of your TV, would be able to give you enough clearance to fit the center under the TV without making it seem unstable or sketchy:
