Build quality, sound

spring clip posts need to be replaced with good quality binding posts

I bought these speakers to please my wife and myself as I have no space for floor standing speakers in my smallish family room. Since my house was new construction, I built a 1.5 cu. ft. enclosure behind the wall made of 1 1/2" MDF. I used a pair of 400ax's with similar enclosures for the rear channels. My only complaints are that the grilles do not fit very well and the spring clip posts are flimsy. I replaced these with high quality 5 way binding posts (easy mod). Overall I am pleased with the sound and feel that the bass for these units is impressive. They are able to shake the floor easily. The speakers have excellent imaging for an in-wall unit and I feel they outperform top of the line B&W and SpeakerCraft units in every way. 4 stars only because of the grills and binding posts
