saw an interview with the designer of this speaker, he said if you're upset your balls don't hang low enough, you buy the 590, otherwise, the 580 sounds better. Big Grin

Picked these up when there was the sale last year with the shopping cart exploit - great speakers. I did have some damage to the legs when I was moving them around, as the wood the screws are attached into is apparently a little flimsy, but the sound is great and they look good as well. Just don't be a lazy moron like me and be sure to lift these off the ground when you move them on carpet!

I should note that I do not put these very loud, since I live in an apartment. If you want to know how they'd do as theater speakers I can't give a good answer.

As a proud owner of these, I can say that they are great surround sound (primary) speakers.

I use the 590s as front L and R, the 530s for rear L and R, and couldn't be happier.

I complement them with 2 Monolith powered 12s, and an additional 15" Castle sub for the low lows.

Strange...I remember reading that the 570s are his favorites in the line. And Z on YT wasn't a fan of the 580s (he was the one who convinced me to buy the 530s which I love). Supposedly the 580s have quite a different sound.

I commented this in another thread on the same speaker, but for people that are interested, please note that these things are big. REALLY big.

Think of some big speakers you've seen in person. Now multiply that by about 20-30%.

I bought these a little over a year ago, and even though I knew going in that they were big, I wasn't prepared for HOW big they are.

If I had to do it over again, I probably would have gone with the 580's instead.
