Summary: Nice for the price
Review: For the money spent, these speakers are a very good value. I received them yesterday, hooked them up to my AIWA bookshelf system, and adjusted them to suit my room. They really add some sparkle to my system. They don't have much in the bottom end, but the main speakers pick up that load. I will be putting in a sub to fully take advantage of the DVD's bass management capabilities.
These speakers included wall mount brackets that make them excellent for side or rear surround speakers. I would recoomend them highly!

Summary: nice
Review: i bought these speakers in a package (hta-4906) which came with 5 of these speakers and a 50 watt subwoofer.
The moment i hooked them up, i was amazed at the quality of the sound from such a small set of speakers. Of course these are no bose, but for the price they are great. I paid 90 bucks for the set, and im impressed. They have great highs and mids, but are missing the bass, but that was why it came with a sub. The subwoofer really helps bring out the bass, and i think is a nessisity.

For the price, you can't go wrong.

Summary: Just too small
Review: I found these speakers just to small for my use. I have a pair of KLH's 98b's 2 way and I like them very much. The Twistables are just to small and can't put out enough sound to keep up with my other KLH's. I used the twistables as replacements for a pair of 6" two way AR's and the twistables just can't create the same sound filed that's needed in my surround setup. They can be driven very hard as the main pair. I will order another pair...

Summary: A good speaker for the price
Review: I purchased these speakers with the intention of hooking them up to a home theatre system as surround and main speakers. I bought them with some apprehension but figured if they were really bad I could use them somewhere else in the home. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the sound. My DVD's sounded great and my cd's were good. In a small room (appx 180 sq ft) the speakers did well but using a powered subwoofer helped a lot too.

Summary: Fine for home theater, terrifying for two channel!
Review: I used these speakers for about a year when "upgrading" to a home theater system. I had heard about the glories of using a satellite system and so I thought I would give them a try as both front and rear channel speakers with a matched KLH center channel. Paired with my Harmon Kardon AVR 40, the speakers were sufficient for home theater. Unfortunately, after a year of barely listening to my 1000+ CD collection, I have detached the front speakers and replaced them with some floor-standing, PSB speakers. I realized that I was so absolutely disappointed by the speakers' lack of richness, that I no longer wanted to listen to my music. I have subsequently listened to a handful of satellite systems and I will say that the KLH are an excellent value for the money; however, I would not recommend a satellite system of any kind for anything but home theater: they're just too bright...even when coupled with a high-quality subwoofer.

Thus, if you think you will be splitting your time equally between two-channel audio and home theater, I wouldn't recommend these speakers for anything but the rear channel. However, if you plan to use them primarily for home theater, then they would certainly be adequate starters!

Summary: ummmmmmmmm
Review: if you think you have a really bassy system.......i recommend you get these because they will really make your system sound better..........sorry but these speakers have absolutly NO BASS!!!!!!!!!!! but i think i have solved the problem.........no air intakes!!! just drill a hole through the sides and they should sound a little bit bassier. but don't do it if u think you will mess it up.......

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great rear speakers
Review: These speakers are great for the price for rear speakers on a surround sound system. I pruchased these because of the low cost and they have worked well for my system. I would not buy these to be my only pair of speakers for a system but the way I use them has been great.
