"Fills the room nicely with good highs & power to spare."
Pros: Capable center channel. The effect of the two-way front speakers helps fill the room. Clean design with small space footprint.
Cons: Spring-clips (vs binding posts). Same two-way feature used for front (left and right) speakers should also be used in the rear surrounds.
Summary: These speakers easily fill my 21X22 enclosed room (with 10foot ceilings). Dialogue remains clear even during chaotic scenes. A good subwoofer is definitely needed. These paired well with my 10'' Klipsch Synergy sub. My main disappointment lies with the fact that the two-way feature used in the front speakers is not used in the rear surrounds. This capability is available in other speakers in this price range/class (Klipsch Quintet III's). I was getting ready to purchase the Quintet's that were on sale when I saw these at a much better price. However, if the price was even (or within $75), I would have purchased the Quintet's.

If you buy the RM95, that is exactly what you get, the same RM8 center and four RM8s with the two-sided speakers.
