Audio Speakers - Product Reviews

CShamwell - (March 24, 2004) I have been auditioning a ton of speaker systems over the last 6 months. Martin Logans, Polks, Athena, B&W. It's been fun and very informative. I live in a medium to small size condo so I didn't want anything that would overwhelm my space in my living room. I had been leaning toward a pair of $600 a piece Polks. I figured twelve hundred a pair wasn't going to get me in too much trouble with my wife. And then I was struck by lady luck herself. It was as if the speaker gods themselves blessed my ears with the new NS-555's. I hope that anyone who is looking to buy a pair of speakers anywhere in the $2000 price range, gives this speaker system a listen. Firstly, these speakers are built with a q

icewolf08 - (December 31, 2005) I ordered two pairs of the E2c’s, one for me and one for my mother in response to her not enjoying the sound quality of the standard Apple earbuds on a recent plane ride.  Got them a couple days ago. First off, I don’t know how the E2c’s were shipping back in ‘03 when the first reviews were written, but now today in 2005 this is what comes in the box: •the E2c’s, zip-case •foam sleeves in three sizes •PVC “flex” sleeves in three sizes •"Ultra-soft" rubber sleeves in three sizes •Instruction manual in three languages •a waring on listening to music to loudly •warranty information •earwax guards A little info about the sleeves:  •Th

reggie1036 - (June 12, 2004) These speakers are absolutely awesome!! I owned Bose 901s before I upgraded to the Polk Audio RTi12s, and I can't believe how much better they sound than the 901s. With the 901s direct reflecting technology, we would lose a lot of sound out the back of the speaker, as per design. But that leaves a lot to be desired if you are interested in getting the best sound for music and especially videos. We had our 901s set up with our Onkyo receiver for dvds and we were constantly turning the volume all the way up to hear dialogue. Not the case with the polks. Even on low volume, dialogue is crystal clear. The music is even more unbelievable. Listening to Erica Badu's "rimshot" fr

svensken - (11/29/2009) This is a high-end product that provides excellent sound quality. I comes with a slim designed carrying case that makes it very easy to bring along both the headphones, the charger and the airplane adapter. The only downside is that it doesn't include any European plug for the charger, so if you travel to Europe, make sure to bring one along.

monster265 - (11/28/2009) Brought these speakers on Amazon in Sept 2008 and have had them for over a year. Just wanted to provide a simple review regarding their performance. They are a very good entry level speaker (pair for under 0.5K) with great sonic balance lows, mids and highs. The bass response has developed over time, at first I thought a subwoofer would always be necessary, although a subwoofer has its role in a home theater system; these speakers will hold their own in a stereo setup. I have removed the cross-over bridging clips and run separate amps to the bass and treble sections of each speaker from my Yamaha RX-V663. Highly recommended speaker. The piano finish luster still shines and presents a nice complement to your entertainment center. One will be very pressed to find a 3-way speaker pair of this quality and price.

freak-nasty - (11/15/2009) I have two pairs of these headphones just in case I share my music on my Ipod with someone. I plan to get a third pair of these just for a backup pair. I have been using them everyday since april and I think they are the best that I have heard at that price...
