I read a review of another speaker (AVHTB) from CNET but I was not sure of this speaker. However, I purchased this one in 2008 and since then I am really happy with the sound and quality. I'm thinking about buying a subwoofer.

Update: This is the second pair of ES1s that I have purchased. I love them that much! These speakers are still a hell of a bargain at (shipping, etc.) $500. After a three-week period of breaking them in, now they have a beautiful rich sound to match my first pair that are about two years old. I'm running them with the Onkyo TX-NR807 and couldn't be happier. On another note, THE WAIT TIME WAS APPALLING! It took a full six months to receive my speakers. My advise is to order what you want, forget about them, and then be pleasantly surprised when they suddenly arrive. Hopefully Fluance will figure out their supply chain soon:)

For the price, these speakers are an amazing deal!
I ordered the Es1's along with the Fluance center channel and I could not be happier with the quality of sound that these speakers produce. I used to have all Polk audio and the fluance's destroyed the Polks in price, sound and looks.
At this price there is nothing to lose!

I bought these pair of Fluance ES-1 front speakers not knowing what to expect as far as sound quality. (Never heard of Fluance before). I just like the contemporary design of these speakers to compliment the interior of my apartment. Very expensive looking speakers. The design is comparable to Mirage and Bang&Olofsen except for the price.
However, after setting it up with my Harman Kardon receiver and Boston acoustics subwoofer, I realized that not only I am getting a great deal for this contemporary front speakers but a great sounding speakers too. I am very satisfied with its performance and I will definitely buy from Fluance again. I highly recommend these speakers to everyone especially if you are on a budget.

These are one of the best pair of speakers I've ever heard for under $1K. I found them purely by accident while researching quality budget speakers and found mention of the company on CNET.com under their top 10 budget speaker systems. Hesitant at first considering the vast shipping distance, I went for it and am very happy with the product. Solid construction paired with great minimalist design works perfectly for my medium sized apartment. Highly recommended over any overpriced brand name.

I am extremely happy with my purchase. These speakers look great with my entertainment center and TV, and the glossy piano finish really makes them look classy. My wife was worried that they would look out of place, but now that they're set up she is convinced that they make the living room look nicer.
Although I've heard quite a few good things about the ES1 speakers, I was still surprised by the amount of bass that comes through them. The highs are even better - each note is crisp and defined, and the sound fills my entire house. Now matter how loud I turned up the receiver, I couldn't detect any distortion. I will definitely recommend these speakers to my friends!

I bought these nearly five years ago and they still sound great! They are in a large room that is using an excellent older tuner w/o 5.1. I did not want to go the sub-woofer route and these handle the bass very well w/o any subs. One of my concerns before I ordered them was the possible appearance w/o actual wood veneer. Not to worry, they are very attractive and still look new. Polk had a comparable speaker design at over twice the price and these sounded better to me at that time. The quality is very apparent and the sound is amazing. I was impressed with the quick response and protective packing they used for shipping. Not like anything I had seen before from an on-line supplier.
