Product Review (submitted on November 20, 2015):

Superb Value. I chose to audition the SV10S and ES1S to see which one I liked better; I would be returning one or both depending on how they performed. The one I would keep would be complimenting my already existing Polk Monitor 45s.

Upon receiving the ES1S I knew immediately that I didn't like them. The range frequency was too much on the high side (and therefore had no bass), and the way they were built with an odd aluminum shell just didn't sound right for me. I tried breaking them in for 10 hours as suggested but even then I couldn't convince myself to keep them. I returned them to Fluance, which by the way, was a painless process. And plus, the ES1S were just ugly with its light-grey outer housing and yellow woofers.

The SVS10s on the other hand, were simply superb for its price. Given its small size I was pleasantly surprised at the clarity of sound it gave out. They sounded incredibly similar to my Polk 45s, which were bigger and more than twice as expensive. The reason why I decided to keep them was because I was going to use my Monitor 45s as mains, and the SV10S as rear surrounds.

Currently, I am powering the SV10S with my Denon DR-AN5 stereo receiver. I'm really pleased with the performance quality given its super reasonable cost. However, if you are planning on getting them, I'd suggest getting them sooner rather than later; it seems the SV line is going to be completely discontinued after the SV10S and its sister centre speakers sell out.

A+++ to these small speakers for its value.
