Product Review (submitted on November 20, 2015):

I had been using a home-theater-in-a-box setup for a few years and thought it was good. I finally got the itch to upgrade the main towers and center channel speaker and did some research. The lower price of the Fluance speakers caused me to hesitate--how good can they be for that price?--but the reviews won me over; on here and on independant sites. Would have paid for the better quality models here but I wanted a black finish, so went with these 'basic' speakers. All I can say is WOW. These utterly destroy the speakers I was using before. The towers sound good for stereo listening but I prefer to use the surround setting on my receiver which activates the Outlaw Audio powered subwoofer I already owned, and the Fluance larger center channel speaker (as opposed to the smaller one in the 5.0 package). In surround mode the Fluance speakers sound amazing, with the music being both powerful and clean. The base coming off the towers blends with the subwoofer and is strong and smooth. True ear candy. Now I run Pandora through my home theater system almost the entire time I'm home as it sounds so damn good. As great as music is, surround audio in movies is unbelievable! Sounds as good as or better than being at a new THX movie theater. A HUGE upgrade from the speakers I had before--wish I had upgraded a long time ago. Speakers costing $1,000 or more might sound a little better, but I can't imagine the tiny increase in quality would be worth the big price difference. Thanks Fluance!
