Other things of note, because it always seems to get asked, you will need an A/V Receiver for these. They aren't powered. These are highly efficient speakers, though, so you don't need a ton of power or any top of the line receiver to get excellent performance out of them. I had some of the Quintets (maybe series 3?) that I used when I was cramped for space. I didn't use the center channel, so I can't speak to its performance, but the satellites put out good sound for their size. I hooked up the center channel and listened to it, but ultimately used a DIY center that I built into my entertainment console.
Overall, this is a solid deal, but just know going in that you also need a receiver, and you'll definitely want to add a sub very quickly. Very good price on a very well reviewed Home Theater in a Box set. At least I think this mostly qualifies for HTIB even considering the lack of a sub.

The quintet series was highly regarded in the satellite speakers world, calling them junk is a bit harsh IMO. I'm not sure how you concluded the klipsch reference theater pack is much better, other than it's got a subwoofer. The size and spec of the speakers look pretty similar to me.

For $200 I'd say they're worthwhile IF you need a small and efficient speaker and have reasonable expectations... if you have the space for a more traditional bookshelf speaker, I'd definitely go that route instead. For the $28 ($5/speaker, $8 for the center, another $15 for the AVR) I paid for the set, and for a secondary (tertiary, really) system replacing a soundbar, they were a no-brainer... but that's not really a fair point of comparison.

I wanted to get another sound system for another room, should I keep denon750 with reference 5.1 or pay another 50$ to get a 2nd arc to use in other room with my main 2nd sub + 1s I have lying around to make my 2nd 5.1 /atmos?
