So first I have to confess that I had ordered directly from hell. But just because the 8 weeks of listening test. So I keep them, because after all tests in HiFi experts corners and stores and read I am stuck with this and I must say they are really top! (Clear may not congratulate them with boxes, the only one this Preisklassr has compared) but I also have to say I do not understand why you buy the garbage of television manufacturers (do not want brands offend - therefore anonymous) and says how well these are , Just listen to these 8 weeks with a good AV receiver and you'll know what's good! And the bass is really awesome for this size! And I have it on 1 / 2e performance and felt pads, since I live in a small apartment house. I give only 4 stars because otherwise I would not know what to give larger boxes ;-)
