Strong mid range through upper timber. Excellent vocals and over all sound experience. Easy on the ears regardless of volume. You cannot go wrong. Use heavy gauge speaker cable, it''s worth it.

You may want to add a subwoofer.

I put these with an old Marantz 2216 receiver (say 70''s, yeah, baby) and a more modern Marantz CD Player for a friend of my wife''s They were her first introduction into a decent sound system that goes beyond the unthinking masses that believe a Bose dektop player is actually good. I think her words put it best," The night I got the sound system, I did something I never did before with a stereo...I ''cranked'' it until the windows vibrated."
