Strength:
Looks - they are a stunning set of speakers (in beech) with and without the grilles on. Bass is incredible!
Weakness:
Size could be a problem for some at 103x32x30 (HxWxD) Black colour could be rather alot for some rooms... Rear ported means they need room behind them... These speakers are amazing. They can go very loud with no trouble at all! It's like having 2 10' subwoofers in each speaker...plus the rest! At the price you can get them now they are ALOT of bang for the money, going down to 30Hz they can go as low as a midrange subwoofer. Similar Products Used: Eltax Jupiters. They are nothing compared to the milleniums. |

Strength:
Excellent power handling!Very thight and loud bass, kristal-clear tweeter. High WAF(wife acceptance factor), due to light beech look. Well buildt, in MDF board!
Weakness:
The mid range got a tendensy to be over-run by the bass's. But place the speakers on spikes, and it will be better! I've got 4 of theese speaker in an home entertainment system, and I must say they perform very well. When i first started to use them, I hooked them up with a Yamaha rxv396 amplifier(about 35watts a channel), and I thougt the speakers sucked. But when I connected them with my new Yamaha RXV-630(120 watts a channel), the speakers really was brought to life. Yurassic park 3, is awesome vith theese speakers!!! I don't regret keeping them, and replace my amp. instead!! (paid 1600 nok) Similar Products Used: Dali 909(way to exspensive), cervin vega dc-15( better mid range, but worse bass, and three times the money), & some really lousy wharfedale's. |

Strength:
Wery nice sound compared to the price. U will have to pay over 6000 nok. to get better speakers. But then you will get speakers that are more balanced.
Weakness:
The midrange is to weak to hang on when you turn up the volume. Then the bass speakers take to much controll, and will leave the midrange behind Compared to the price you will get speakers that will get you're mother up and running. Strong Bass, Loud sounding. Similar Products Used: Dali 109, 909, 8008. (Nok. 6000) |

Strength:
loads of bass,very clear!!! midrange is very load Considering it is competing with two bass speakers!!! and tweeter to die for, its so clear and very load!!!
Weakness:
if you have an amp that is less than 100watts per channel the listening quality fades! basically you need an amp with some bollocks to run the speakers! i baught them because they were cheap, and loads of wattage, 500 watts to be exact! but they sound too good! if you get a realy expensive amp! ive got a sony amp 100 watts per channel, 8 channels! £500. if you have a good amp i recommend that you bye them! Similar Products Used: ELTAX MILLENIUM 500….£169.99 SPEAKERS 500WATT!!!!! and my amplifier is a SONY str-db1080. |

Strength:
High sensetivity (good if your amp is weak and you want to play loud). Much (bad) bass
Weakness:
Hifisound. Bought them for a friend. He's happy, but I feel sorry for him. Ni hi-fi at all. Only (bad) bass. I can understand that some people like these as partyspeakers, but thats all. Similar Products Used: Proson, JWS |

Strength:
Bass! Clear, defined sound when set up correctly. Great tweeter!
Weakness:
Midrange is a bit small, but keeps up as well as can be expected when pitted against dual 10" woofers :) What great speakers! they look great, very menacing :). Very powerful too, like the review above said: sometimes the dual 10" woofers can take over a bit, but you just gotta make sure your amp is set up fine... then they sound excellent. Maybe a larger midrange would help them some though. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
Amazing Bass!! If you pair these up with a pair of silverstone 300''s, its perfect. They Look amazing, the picture is of the old model, the cones are silver and the port is on the back.
Weakness:
The treble is a bit quiet, but thats because of the overwhelming bass, The mid-range also moves with the bass which distorts the treble at high volumes I got the new Millenium 500''s a month back. They look beautiful compared to the old model. These things are HUGE! they have two 10" subs. The bass is really impressive, i havent heard a speaker like them Similar Products Used: Eltax silverstone 300''s |
