Signature Series HiFi Two-way Bookshelf Surround Sound Speakers

This review is not only for the speakers but Fluance as a company as well. I have owned these speakers for 2 years and have enjoyed them every day in my home office. Mostly at modest volume but sometimes at punishing levels.

In the last few months one of the speakers bass drivers developed a very minor distortion that was really only noticeable at very select frequencies. One song particularly was Lovetheme by Depeche Mode.

I contacted Fluance through their warranty department and was contacted within a day or so. They had me do some testing and diagnosis to see if we could determine if it was the driver. I was happy to do that and it was the driver. They sent me out a new one and I installed it easily with their provided instruction.

Thank you again Fluance!

Man, surround sound music with actual bass is insane. I love these. Movies and whatnot are great too, but with music I can lie back in my couch with my eyes closed and take it in... good stuff right there! Safe to say I'm happy with these speakers.

I ordered on a Sunday got them by Friday. Excellent packaging. I am downsizing my listening room and wanted to replace my Energy Veritas V6.3's with something much smaller with front facing vents so they could be located closer to the back wall. I set them up for continuous play in my garage for 24 hours before bringing them into my listening room where they are plugged into a pair of 200 W Marantz mono blocks with a Marantz SR 7010 AVR as preamp. After another 20 hours or so they really came to life. They are very bright speakers with crystal clear highs, a warm midrange, and tight bass. The frequency response is quite flat and the imaging was remarkable for speakers with such a small size and price. The bass response was tight but fell off according to specs at around 60 Hz but with 2 small subwoofers crossing over at 80 Hz the combination was very impressive in either stereo or 11.2 surround. I would have kept them but I was auditioning 2 other other sets of bookshelf speakers and chose a set for $300 more. I highly recommend these speakers to anyone on a tight budget putting together a home sound system for a medium size room. Spend most of your money on a good receiver and start building your speaker system with these Fluance Signature Series Bookshelf/Surround speakers and a subwoofer. Buy from Fluance, the price is less than Amazon.ca and you get a 30 trial with free shipping in both directions.

I like the high quality of these speakers, I am very satisfied with them, I recommend to all!!!

Great value for the money, can be used as front speakers if need be

There is no way anyone should spend $600 or more on a set of bookshelf speakers before buying a set of these and breaking them in. They play with the big boys at half the price. What a deal!!!

I just recently bought a brand new set up that included these speakers. My record collection has never sounded this good!!!!! I usually buy second hand speakers and was glad to be able to drop a bit of cash. I live in a one bedroom apartment and these are more than enough. My neighbors would be very unhappy if I took them to their potential. I am sure there will be one of those inebriated evenings where I want to take that Sunn album to 11 and wake up to a note on my door. But hey, if these two speakers can take it there I think it’s a good choice.

Very happy with purchase after reading, and watching comparison reviews. I am using as my mains in a 7.2 surround system to complement my Yamaha NS-P10MM Satellites. Very rich sound with, a bit light on the bass side but that is to be expected. Nice build quality, great for a small A/V setup. Initially tested on a desktop, I would purchase these again.

Great little bookshelf speakers! Look great and sound awesome.

We purchased the entire Hi-Fi Signature Series and absolutely love it. Stereo sound is excellent and the 7.1 surround brings a movie experience to life.

I bought the RT81 turntable and powers speakers earlier, like both products. That made me want to expand my system, but I wanted to get high quality, room filling (okay, a small room, but still...) speakers that could do justice for my music.I couldn't make up my mind without actually hearing speakers, and that's not possible where I live. Additionally, cost was significantly higher from other sources. I called Fluance to discuss my desire. The rep actually asked about the type of music, my treble/bass preference and the room. She actually talked me out of ordering the sub woofer or the center channel speakers. She was sure the Sig Series would do all I asked. If the grandkids wanted the booming theater sound for movies, I can call her back. With prime shipping, no other manufacturer could compete with the price either. She was right, they are great for my room. But if the grandkids want big booms, THEY can call!

Upgraded from the Edifier r1280t to these. Paired them with a Cerwin Vega and a pioneer receiver.

My girlfriend loves them.

I ran the auto-calibration on my receiver and didn't notice it automatically identified them as "Large" speakers, meaning they provided enough bass for the receiver to think they were floorstanding speakers with integrated subwoofers.

The thing is, when the setting for the front speakers is at "Large", it completely disables the sub and run the whole range of frequencies to the front speakers. It took me longer than it should have to figure this out since I didn't feel like some of the bass was missing in any movies or music I was enjoying.

I recommand setting them up with a subwoofer, but I think you can definitely enjoy them without one, especially in an apartment.

I have been on a 2 month quest for new speakers. These are good. I would put them in range with Sony, Klipsch, Definitive Tech, ELAC and Bowers and Wilkens. In fact their sound signature is almost identical to B&W. So if you are looking at any of those brands, take a look and try these.For me, they were too bright. I have hearing that hears a little beyond normal ranges and bright speakers quickly give me listener fatigue. So I sent them back and went with Emotiva Airmotiv’s which are incredible, but a little pricier.If you like a brighter speaker, like most of the entry to mid level, these are for you. They are an incredible value and will cost you half of the cost of more well known brands and perform twice as well.

Everything works great

Good
