Product Review (submitted on March 14, 2022):

I would say that I'm not a novice when it comes to good sounding speakers, but I'm not an audiophile either. I've always upgraded my car stereos and have had a couple complete surround systems in-a-box; with this 5-speaker set from the Fluance Elite line being my first standalone speakers purchase. I have it paired with a 7.2 channel receiver I also recently bought.All that said, I can best summarize my thoughts on the sound these speakers provide versus those aforementioned prior setups by saying just one word A-W-E-S-O-M-E'! While these are Fluance's entry-level variety, they're a giant leap over any 'all-in-one surround system' you could buy off the shelf anywhere. The sound is full with crisp highs, clear dialogue in movies/vocals in music, a strong and enveloping mid-range that does a good job fulfilling the largest part of the audible spectrum, and can even hit some of the lower-end of that spectrum. As other reviewers have said - I would agree that a subwoofer is almost a necessity to complete the system; but, it will depend on your listening preferences and how much low-end you like. I complemented them with the Jamo C912 12" subwoofer and its been a perfect match so far.Ive only had these set-up and playing for a couple days so they're not even broken in yet; but, I couldn't wait to complete the setup with how great it already sounds so today I went ahead and ordered a pair of bipolar surrounds from the Reference series (XL8BP). If you're delaying whether to go with this set of speakers or another within a similar price range - stop. Just buy these and be done contemplating and don't look back!
