They came about 3:30, at the same time as a Ketron SD5 for HankB.
I unboxed everything and hooked the left and right outs of the SD5 directly into the two little speakers.
I left the mid control at midway and turned the volume up to about 8 on each speaker.
I was pretty much prepared to be disappointed when I saw the actual size of them.
HOWEVER, they really sound good. The bass response is very good. It's not a sub, but it goes way down there far enough.
Everything is clean as a pin, and they are extremely quiet. I've had them on for about 3 hours while I reacquainted myself with the SD5 (talk about sounding GREAT; can't wait for my Audya, maybe next week).
Anyway, back to the speakers. They seem to have a pretty long throw, although I only tried them in my living room. They were about six feet from me pointed back toward me, so I didn't ask them for too much.
I turned the volume of the SD5 up only about half way, and it was quickly getting to the painful point.
I think you could use these for a lot of small to medium size jobs and be extremely pleased. They deliver about as much bang for the buck as any gear I've ever seen.
They seem to be very well built.
More later,
