Could I buy one for my mother who doesnt have a tpmoucer to use, so she has something for looking at the internet , magazines etc. She never has or probably never will use a normal tpmoucer she has wifi in her house as my brother has a laptop and is still at home.I realize it requires a connection to Itunes when I first get it but after that would she be able to use it as a simple main tpmoucer?

This is a great sounding set of speakers for the price. Also, has a powered subwoofer to add to the sound. Installed these in my garageworkshop for a great sound at a very reasonable price.Installation was very easy.

I have been looking for a good set of speakers to put into our living room for quite a while. I know that Yamaha produces quality products and I had just purchased a Yamaha receiver, so I figured these would be the perfect match! These are an incredible value at less than $130. The first thing I noticed was that even with their small size, they had some weight to them. Once I plugged it all up, the sound was above my expectations. My large theater is downstairs, but we didnt always want to head to the basement to watch a movie. So, these speakers have allowed us to have two theaters on a major budget without sacrificing sound quality. Also... thanks to Vanns for the very fast turnaround and great price! Highly recommended.

If youre not rich, or just dont want to blow a lot of extra dough for something you dont need, this set is the way to go. I replaced the speakers that were included in my Sony HT7200DH system, and noticed a big difference. The sub is pretty powerful, especially for a small space. The audio quality from these speakers is sweet, especially the highs. I probably wouldnt use these in a huge room. But, for an apartment or condo, they are just fine. When I get my dream home, complete with man-cave, I will finally spend more on home theater. Until then, less than $300 for a complete system sounds great to me.
If you have a small to medium space, and want a great budget ht system, I recommend pairing these speakers with the Sony STR-DH510.

I have owned these speakers now for a while and they are a great set of entry level speakers. The sound quality is very good, especially for the price. The subwoofer does a nice job putting out base and is worth the price of the whole set by itself. I am very happy with this purchase and with the outstanding build quality. The speakers output alot of sound considering how small they are. This is a great sounding set for a small to medium sized room.

I was completely satisfied with this speaker system. The speakers are built well, not too heavy but not plastic and cheap. The sub is perfect size, maybe too much for my space but not over the top. This is a perfect affordable home theatre system, for someone who wants decent sound, not a lot of space and doesnt have a grand or so to spend on sound. i have my receiver hooked up to my computer, and my tv is also hooked up. I watch tvmovies via internet, no cable. This set up works perfectly, and the surround sound with this 5.1 is perfect. I recommend a speaker wire upgrade. the other thing to double check is that your receiver will supports 5 speakers and a subwoofer, that would be the only complication, because this doesnt have the receiver included. Other than that is is out of the box easy to set up and a decent speaker set up for the price! plus shipping is free from vanns!

Got the speakers very quickly and bought speaker mounts on another site for about $15. Our main room is roughly 20 X 30 and we have a very open floor plan. The speakers fill the room and whole downstairs up beautifully. Im very familiar with Yamaha speakers so I figured the sound quality would be good. Just thought due to the small size and price they would just be ok. These speakers ABSOLUTELY ROCK. Dont let the small size or price deter you. If you are in the market for surround sound speakers BUY THESE NOW. They put just about every other system I listened to that were 2 -3 times the price to shame. The sub really thumps, its very strong. As a matter of fact we still havent turned it past the halfway point and it fills the room up with great tight bass. Highly Recommend!!!

I got these speakers about a month ago and I use them everyday. My dad gave me his old receiver which is still up to date even though its old Yamaha RX-V690. I guess I shouldve known, but this system comes with speaker wires. I went out and bought my own when I didnt have to. As for the other reviewers yes it is very difficult to see which is the plus and which is the minus on the speaker wires. For those of you considering this item, the plus wire is the one with the white line running along the length of it. It was very easy to set up, otherwise. Plus goes in the plus outlet, minus goes to the minus outlet. Just make sure you already have a receiver and that it takes 300W speakers. If you have any questions, you should be able to consult the owners manual for the receiver as well as the speaker. I love my sound system. I would recommend these speakers to anyone who likes sound clarity and good base at a decent price.

Great bang for the buck!!! These speakers sound awesome for the price. I paid less due to an out of box return and nothing, and I mean nothing, is wrong with the set. Great subwoofer for my sized room and the small satellites put out great sound. My dad bought one of the Bose systems that is the receiver with 2 sat speakers and a sub and my Yamaha system blows it out of the water. Very pleased with the system. If you are a true audiophile then Im certain other systems are up your alley however, if you just want great sound with a nice sub then this is the system for you.

I recently purchased a 5.1 Yamaha video receiver for y new 47 HD monitor but didnt buy speakers thinking that I could use my old stereo speakers that I had for many years. I quickly realized that old technology works best with old technology.
I was discouraged about the prices that my research was coming up with. All the specs and reviews were similar. The price fluctuation seemed more to do with the label than anything else.
Happily I found these Yamaha speakers at Vanns for a price that was half of its nearest competitor with specs that were as good or better. They happen to match perfectly with the Yamaha receiver I bought.
In addition to the great sound I discovered that the customer support at both Vanns and Yamaha is better that most other companies that I've dealt with.
This is a great deal, a great product from 2 really good companies.

I love this speaker system. I purchased it because I owned 20 y o speakers from Yamaha that I still loved. They sound absolutely wonderful with my home theater receiver. One caution- use the speaker wire included in the package for something else. Buy wire according to the distance from the receiver to the speakers. Thanks to an earlier review, I bought 16 gauge wire since the distance to the farthest speaker was under 50 feet, and it is quite a difference.

The rating below for value only goes to 5, I would give them a 10.
Also, I had an excellent experience with Vanns. Service, delivery, convenience, price, they rock.
My only wish is that they had a store in the midwest close to where I live. Montana is a long way away. They beat the heck out of Best Buy.
