The Bottom Line	The Newton Theater MC155, Cambridge's latest update to this popular Newton satellite/subwoofer series, offers solid performance in a compact package.	The Definitive Technology ProCinema 600 surround speakers pack a mighty wallop for their small size, but the system needs some extra care during setup to sound its best.	Thanks to its superbly matched satellites and subwoofer, Energy's Take Classic offers killer sound for a very affordable price.	The powerful Definitive Technology ProCinema 800 satellite/subwoofer package redefined our expectations of what a small surround speaker system can do.	The Energy Speakers RC-Micro 5.1 speaker system delivers superb sound quality from incredibly tiny speakers.
