I bought the bundle, 2 front towers and a center speaker. I end up using the tower speakers as back sorround and the center channel for the front heights which I have to buy another center channel to pair with it. I almost return them because they are too small for my living room, but I found it cheaper than buying the klipsch dolby atmos and back sorround speakers. The sounds are amazing for smaller room and I rated them 5 for the price. The sounds are crisp and clean. I found that they sound way better with multichannel speakers with a separate active subwoofer set to a low volume to help with the bass. But for the price, these bundle sony speakers are big bang for the buck.

I got these to compliment my bookshelf and sub, also Sony. The quality is great but above +0db there's tin in the sound. But, that's damn loud and these are more for a living room/theatre setup. Sounds great with live sports, etc.

Looks great and sounds even better!

Just to get this out of the way: the company that sold these has ignored requests for assistance on the damage one of my speakers suffered in shipping. So I will avoid dealing with that company again.

The speakers, on the other hand, are great looking with hardy cabinetry and a well engineered set of cross-overs, leading to an excellent mix and a great full soundstage. The sound is not tied to the front of the cabinets, as is often the case in less expense speakers and the integration between treble and midrange is outstanding - especially at this price point.

There is not copious amounts of bass, but that was expected both at this price point and in the speaker design. But I knew that going on and have a subwoofer that pairs seemlessly with them [lower than 80 hz for a cross-over, which isn't bad at all].

The high end is excellent and very detailed, thus providing excellent coverage of female voices in particular, and the higher registered instruments in an orchestra.

Driving them is very easy as they have good sensitivity. Though they are 6 ohms, these days even low end amps usually provide for multiple impedences. As usual, check which setting provides the best resolution and which does not overtax your amp.

They can play quietly very nicely, and moderate volumes very well. At higher volumes there is some congestion in the midrange, which is to be expected at this price point and not at all unusual in my experience until you get to 3-4 times the price. [They aren't Wilson Watt Puppies :)].

I'm rarely a fan of anything that says Sony on it, as a lot of their less expensive items have been, in my experience, pretty mediocre. These speakers have exceeded my expections.

Great speakers for their price range. I have a Yamaha receiver, Audio-Technica turntable, Vizio TV and a PS4 console all being piped through the speakers. All come out of the Pioneers sounding like they should. I haven't pushed them to their limits, yet. But there's no need to. The music I've used for reference material over the years has shown the Pioneers to be reproducing the sound exactly like it should be. Someday, I'll probably go bigger and better. But if that turns out to be awhile til I get there, I'll still being happy with my Pioneer speakers.
