    Energy 5.1 Take Classic Home Theater System (Set of Six, Black)

    • Odd, eh?Anyhow - I couldn't afford another set of Definitive Technology speakers
    • Its almost like you have a totally different set of speakers when watching movies compared to listening to music.
    • This set is not super cheap, however it does deliver the expected amount of power with the correct amp and can produce a great listening experience if you are not expecting high end, you can stop looking.
    • I recommend this set to all of my friends looking for a basic 5.1 setup and those that bought it have not been disappointed.
    • Well, I brought this set 1 month ago
    • Wicked good set of speakers
    • Great set of speakers if you are on a budget
    • I WAS initially concerned about my choice of speakers after setting them up because they sounded thin and flat; although they did sound better than the 85w cheap-o set I replaced them with, there was no depth
    • You will not believe how powerful this little set is.
    • The combination of value, size and sound merge for a truly amazing set of speakers
    • I bought the Take Classic 5.1 set off Amazon and thought the sound was so completely amazing that I was able to contact Energy and purchase two additional satellite speakers
    • too.if you are just getting in to home theater or are on a budget I can say with confidence this is a good set and unless you are a super duper audiophile you will be pleased
    • This set isn't cheap or inexpensive, it has value (bang for buck).I'm using AWG 16 speaker cable and I regret not buying the banana plugs ahead of time, so get those too
    • Well I did buy another set (this one was in perfect condition) to expand my theater to 7.2, and just watched a movie recorded in DTS 7.1.
    • Great set of speakers
    • A great set of speakers will last you many years.
    • get a good set out of the box especially after the Subwoofer hiss problem I had
    • I would recommend this for everyone especially for the price this is an amazing set.
    • The difference in these speakers and the cheap set became very apparent when the volume was cranked up, very clear .... sounds great
    • These are a very clear sounding set of speakers and perhaps the best "lifestyle" option under $1000
    • This set of speakers really sounds well and looks good
    • These speakers all sound great as a set and I got a great deal on the CF-30
    • All in all, the set is great!
    • They sound as good or better than more expensive sets I've heard for both movies and music
    • My only beef with these is that there are only 5.1 speakers here, and my receiver supports 7.2Bottom line- great set of speakers, especially at this price range.
    • They sound as good or better than more expensive sets I've heard for both movies and music
    • Great set of speakers
    • I was on the cusp of buying a really nice set of headphones and separate mic when I came across these, and decided that I'd rather give 5.1 speakers a run instead of stereo headphones if I was going to be working with two devices anyways
    • When streaming movies the center speaker has that vocal deficiency that all surround sound systems seem to have but was much better than the cheap set it replaced
    • get a good set out of the box especially after the Subwoofer hiss problem I had
    • This set of speakers sound great for home theater at reasonable levels.
    • but I have found them to really sound like a more expensive set than they are and that has been the opinion of A/V professionals that have seen and heard my system.
    • I'd say not a bad set for a no-frills setup.
    • After reviewing online resources/forums for hrs and hrs, I finally decided to buy this handy 5.1 speaker set
    • The only issue I've encountered is that the "Auto" setting on my subwoofer no longer seems to work.
    • I labored over reviews for a few weeks trying to decide on a really good set of speakers that wouldn't break the bank
    • I highly recommend this surround speaker set
    • Possibly a defective set, other than
    • As so many have mentioned this set is perfect for the price
    • Good set of speakers!
    • I enjoyed this set for many years with Yamaha receiver
    • This is an amazing set of speakers.
    • Wicked good set of speakers
    • The micro set was $500 cheaper on another site
    • Overall, this is a great set of speakers at an unbelievable price.
    • Price is great, but the main thing is this set is absolutely beautiful and sounds great.
    • the cheaper sets I've had
    • This is a very nice set-up
    • Overall an excellent set of speakers
    • Easy set up, matched up with my Denon very well
    • True my an amazing set for the money
    • It added a lot of the low end this set appears to miss
    • The second set worked and sounded pretty good for a while
    • This is a great speaker set and to top it off, its multi purpose, it works well for Music as well as movies
    • Overall, for $3-$400 price range these are a decent set of speakers given the placement in your room is correct, you run an EQ test through your receiver (many come with mics to adjust how sound is distributed) and adjust the settings correctly
    • Great set for the money.
    • I highly recommended this set for someone looking for amazing sound on either a tight budget or space limitations.
    • All in all, a fantastic set of speakers at an affordable price
    • All the reviews I read said the set exceeds much more expensive sets and they were right
    • I rationalized with myself by saying, "how can a set of tiny speakers sound as great as everyone make them out to be
    • This set of speakers replaced a 2 ohm impedance set of speakers that I was having a hard time getting sufficient volume from.
    • and I would buy the set off you if you didn't like it
    • I think my old set of Altec Lansing computer speakers are slightly better for music.
    • Great set of speakers
    • For the price and size this is an unbeatable set.
    • All the reviews I read said the set exceeds much more expensive sets and they were right
    • Awesome set of speaker, all I can say is WOW
    • Nice set of speakers
    • What can i say but truly a great set of speakers for the money.
    • This set looks very nice and for its size sounds great!
    • I have had this set up in my living room for a few weeks now and the sound has blown me away
    • I am going to purchase a second set when I fine them at the price I paid.
    • Very nice, small speaker set
    • If you are like me and don't understand all of the techno-babble and want a really good sounding set of speakers, just buy these
    • But for easy setting home theater, this can be a very good one.
    • This is a very clear, very powerful (for the size), and very affordable speaker set.
    • I would recommend this set up as a quality, cost effective, alternative to buying $$$ "high end" speakers.
    • I recommend this set of speakers for anybody wanting to enjoy a theater experience on a budget or in need of small speakers for placement!
    • For the price, this set is hard to beat
    • I bought this for streaming music from my Onkyo NR535 and as a surround sound for my Vizio E320i B-1,replacing a "cheap" home theater set that wasn't cutting it in my
    • Very good set!!
    • This system is good for the $300 price range, but does not out perform much expensive set
    • Sounds much better than some more expensive sets I have heard, and they look great with the glossy black finish.
    • My brother also has a set and loves them as much as I do.
    • and all of them recommend this set of speakers.
    • I tend to like a more balanced setting which only shows its surprising deep ends when the music or the movie calls for it
    • n’t have to worry too much about scratches or peeling, but it is a laminate/pressboard finish so definitely not indestructible.
    • Highly recommend t for members wanting to get started up on HT AVR system and are on a budgetHaving said, few
