The Bottom Line	You can't beat Fluance's rock-bottom pricing, solid construction, and sound quality, which rivals that of more expensive speakers.	This five-piece home-theater speaker package offers shockingly good sound for a mere $199.	Anchored by its minitower speakers, the Aperion Intimus 4T Hybrid SD is an exceptional surround speaker system that ably combines good looks and superior sound.	Thanks to its superbly matched satellites and subwoofer, Energy's Take Classic offers killer sound for a very affordable price.	The Energy Speakers RC-Micro 5.1 speaker system delivers superb sound quality from incredibly tiny speakers.
