It would be nice to see feedback for "higher caliber" speakers on SD as to how they compare to the typical deals posted here.

The coaxial drivers (the tweeter is centered within the midrange driver) give these an extremely clear and wide-open soundstage with precise imaging.
These speakers don't need to be toed-in (angled inwards towards the listener), which allows for excellent stereo imaging even from multiple listening positions (off-axis). Most speakers that I have heard only sound good at 1 specific sweet spot.
They put out a ton of bass and pressurize a medium-sized room well (3x 8-inch woofers). Of course, it needs to be driven with a proper amplifier to do so just like any speaker. And for larger rooms or bass-heavy music, a subwoofer is recommended.
These are sealed cabinets so no bass port to worry about. You can place these speakers right up against a wall without totally ruining the bass. Many other brands have rear-facing ports which limit where you can appropriately place them without smothering the ports.
I'm always tempted to drop more money on audio gear. But in terms of speakers, these are in my opinion the best you can get before you start getting serious diminishing returns for your money. Long story short, I highly recommend these, especially at this price.

In these days, its tough to experience the "high end" audio sound because if the disappearance of the specialty audio shops. I know retailers have in home trial programs but it's a lot of hassle to try a bunch of speakers and return, then you feel bad about it too.
