I have have these speaker for 5 year and I guess it be long enough to give they a review . I be look for a chea ... inexpensive set of speaker to go with my -lrb- then new -rrb- denon receiver . after day of research I figure that big brand do not sell anything of quality that cheap , but I find a unknown company that people seem to like , Fluance . so I go to the website and buy these speaker . a few day later they come in nice double box . the main look pretty sturdy . they have golden plate connector on the back and can be doubled-wired -lrb- not that I think anyone will bother to do it -rrb- . after I hook they up -lrb- and after a break-in period -rrb- they start produce very clear sound . Bass be obviously not very deep . but you can not expect it and Fluance have a matching subwoofer now so it should not be a problem . unfortunately back and especially center be much smaller and less powerful -lrb- minus one star -rrb- . sound from the center be not that great especially with music . I wish they put a bigger one in the package but after all it be reasonably ok with movie so I be still keep it . although , again , Fluance have a matching center speaker for sale -lrb- I guess it be part of they marketing strategy -rrb- . after four year of use they I be think of buy a `` brand name '' speaker but I can not convince myself to spend 10 time more money to get something that be only 10 percent better . people seem to think that Fluance be `` white van '' speaker and they be obviously not . I be yet to find something in this price range that sound even remotely that good . and you can always put a fake logo on they to show they off to you friend ...
