"Great speakers."
Pros
Very nice sound. Good look.
Cons
If you want to frat party head pounding speakers, these aren't.
Summary
Let me start by justifying my con, these speakers are very loud. Good enough for a dance party, but not big enough for a dance party with 50 people with cranked music.

Let me start by justifying my con, these speakers are very loud. Good enough for a dance party, but not big enough for a dance party with 50 people with cranked music.
I did a lot of research on speakers, I wanted something that didn't dominate the living room, and that would even look nice. These speakers are perfect. I bought the white ones, and bought the Crutchfield wall mounts for $25 each. I highly recommend these wall mounts. They look nice and you can partially aim the speakers.
These speakers are loud enough for parties and hip-hop music, and nice for movies on the dvd.
I was torn between the Bose AM3 and the AM5 speakers. I didn't want to pony up $200-300 more in the end, and I'm glad because I recently went to a Bose store and they played the AM3 and the AM5 speakers back to back in a comparative test. Both were very similar, and didn't warrant the price difference.
These speakers will not let you down. I paid $189 for the pair during a christmas sale on Amazon that were sold direct from Bose.com.
