Here, there, anywhere

Look at the SoundWare XS speaker from Boston Acoustics, and the first thing that jumps out at you will likely be, well, the look. It's a safe bet that the SoundWare XS looks different from any speaker you've ever seen before, because, well, it is. These small speakers add a really different, stylish look to your listening area, especially with their sleek black finish. But aesthetics aren't the only thing the design of the SoundWare XS satellites is for. You see, the unique shape is actually very clever, because they look great ANYWHERE. The included omni-directional mount and small size let you place this speaker pretty much anywhere, whether resting on a table, hanging on a wall, or even in a corner. Pretty clever.

Looks ain't everything

There are plenty of expressions to convey the sentiment that how something looks is not the only thing that matters. Boston Acoustics must have heard some of those expressions. While their SoundWare speaker looks great, they didn't make beauty the only factor. The speaker also steps up in the performance area. Unlike many set-ups in this price range, this satellite speaker has both a woofer and tweeter. Not only that, but MagnaGuard magnetic shielding ensures that your speakers' sound won't be distorted by electric fields. You see, Boston Acoustics holds themselves to the highest standards when it comes to sound — their own.

Do not expect big Speaker sound from these tiny Speakers. However, at normal listening levels, the sound is accurate and pleasing.

Sounds better than some other 4 letter cubes! And much, much cheaper! Very Satisifed.

I am using these for my rear surround sound speakers and the do the job completely. If you dont have a lot of space these speakers will fit just rt. The quality and build construction cant be beat. I highly recommend these speakers for anyone looking for a small pair of surround speakers.
