"Great sound at a good price"
Pros
Sounds Clear,
Balanced sound, not too bright nor too much bass.
Solid Construction
Size is perfect for variety of uses
Cons
Needs an Amp, as these are passive speakers.
Clear enough that I can hear imperfections and surface noise on my vinyl that I didn't hear before.

Really like these. I have the model in black (the bamboo is very nice, but not worth $75 in my opinion). These set up very easily, especially if you have the N22 Amp that is designed to be paired with these. However, they should work with any Amp in the 4-8 ohm range and with standard speaker wire. I have them hooked up to an Audio-Technica AT-LP 60 Automatic turntable, and it sounds fantastic.
The only downside so far has been the fact that they sound so clear that I am hearing surface noise that I never heard on my old setup (which was a cheap integrated turntable/speaker set from Crosley). That being said, it makes the voices sharp and distinct, has a good stereo soundscape. Also, there are several screw mounts so you could set these up in a lot of different ways. I have them on a table about two feet apart, but you could easily mount them or have them as part of a surround system. Very solid choice, at a price that is hard to beat for this kind of sound.
