These speakers are incredibly intricate with a wide plane of sounds. Once i popped the box open i started off by playing some drum n bass by diesel boy, and to my total satisfaction, i could hear small high-range sounds that i hadnt even noticed before. That is from a song im quite familiar with. The bass kicks are felt in the chest, and they definitely hit when the powerhouse tell them to. So i didnt notice any sort of bass-lag. Ive got a sony reciever coming soon which will certainly better my experience, but already from playing them through a bookshelf system an mx-gt80 that would cut out its circuitboard every 5 seconds they dominated my expectation for the price. I am a major home entertainment buff, and i would still recommend these speakers to all types of users, as long as you can appreciate how classy they look |
Wow! Great Sound for a great price |

Ive only used these speakers for a few days but they sound awesome for surround sound and CDs. The bass could be a bit fuller and does benefit from a subwoofer, but they have very clear sound. Vanns price and delivery were top notch, and the price was unbeatable. |

For the price you cant beat this pair of Sony floor speakers. I use them as my front surround speakers. They sound great. Brings the action in movies to a whole new level. The low end is not bad using the 8 inch speaker. I recommend using a sub for the real low end. Also, use at least 16 gage speaker wire.
I was going to pay more for another brand but now Im glad I didnt. I am very happy. Sony rocks. |

The speakers are really outstanding for this price in regards of sound and mechanical quality. Only the cheap speaker cables shouldnt be used and replaced with a real speaker cable. |

the sony ss-f5000p floor speakers are a great deal.the black cabinet and matching grill hide some powerful speakers. I never liked small speakers, I felt they didnt have the bass i wanted. Running these babys for my surrounds really adds oomph to my system. I use the sony ssmf750h for my mains, An rca center channel speaker,A klh 100 watt sub with a 500 watt 5.1 system. The sound will blow the doors off. Crank it up and enjoy. The new sony ss-f5000p speakers are a must have for the price. |

I just picked up four of these great speakers from Vanns to use as my main channels and surrounds for my new Onkyo TX-SR605. I upgraded from a Yamaha home theater in a box composed of satelites and two old KLH floor speakers that were being used as my mains. I kept the Yamaha subwoofer hooked up to the system to give even lower lows, but these speakers almost do not need it - they kick pretty hard for only having 8 inch woofers plus, they look great while doing it. Having full band speakers all around really improves the home theater experience and really increased the deep, rumbling bass in action sequences while still maintaining clarity in the highs. Ill eventually upgrade my rear surrounds to either the SSB3000 essentially the bookshelf version of these speakers - or the SSB1000 and my center channel to the matching Sony center channel as well in order to maintain the sound produced by these great speakers. You cant beat them for the price... they deffinately wont rumble you out of the house like a monster pair of Deffinitve speakers, but for the price, they cant be beat! THANKS VANNS! |
