 great speakers once set up December 1, 2008
My only hesitation buying these speakers was the notion they might not be powerful enough. I'm happy to say those fears were completely unfounded. Unless you are a hardcore audiophile or have a huge listening area these speakers are more than enough to give loud, rich sound with zero distortion. I have them in a living room with an open dining area just behind, a space as big as any American living room setup, and I can't begin to approach anything past moderate volume before they are deafening yet crystal clear. I have them connected to a Sony DG920 receiver and have had no problems. The one problem I did have was being given a single 80 ft. length of speaker wire and having to learn how to cut, split and strip it myself. It was intimidating to a total novice but actually very easy once I knew what I was doing. You will need a wire cutting/stripping tool and an Xacto knife, available at any hardware store. Tip: the included wire is 18AWG so set your stripping tool accordingly. Previously I only owned a home theater in a box where everything was precut and labeled so a monkey could do it, so I don't know if do it yourself wiring is the norm (and again, it's easy so don't be scared off if this is your first system). I was ticked at the lack of wiring instructions from Yamaha but five minutes online yielded a site with step by step instructions. The speakers are every bit as beautiful as pictured and look like they were made for my Sharp Aquos LCD which shares the same high gloss black finish. Besides wiring, the assembly was minimal and very simple. Note that the surround speakers weigh 3.5 pounds each, so they require a sturdy pair of stands if not wall mounted. I'm very happy with my purchase and would recommend this product to anyone who wants an elegant looking and high performing speaker system.
 Terrible Sound October 2, 2008

I'm not a huge audiophile or anything, but I can tell you these are the most worthless speakers I've ever heard. I purchased them new via an online auction house because the price was reasonable and they looked great. They do indeed look spectacular, but they sound FAR worse than the ones that came with my cheap Samsung HTIB system (which these were supposed to replace).
I rated 2 stars because if you are nearly deaf and want a nice appearance, this is a truly beautiful system -- its just that its not worth a dime if you care about sound.
Gotta see if I can get them returned.. shoulda shopped Amazon.
Very Good Audio, Great Styel March 2, 2008

I purposely bought this system because of the Piano Black finish and it's compact size. I live in a 400 foot studio so I did not need a super powerful system. It's true the subwoofer is onlyl 6.5 inches instead of the standard 10", however, for the size of my room it is more than adequate. The slim styling of the speakers, especially the freestanding ones, fit nicely into the room without being intrusive. And the black piano finish matches my HDTV perfectly.
Slim sexy speakers that deliver great surround February 8, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Speakers look beautiful and sound great with the exception of the sub. The sub sounds ok but it just doesnt deliver deep enough bass when watching movies and playing music...at least for my tastes. Not really surprising though considering its only sporting a 6.5 inch woofer/ 75 watt amp. If your looking for a great sounding compact surround package with style in mind then I would recommend it. I on the other hand will be searching for a sub with more power in mind.
