I finally got my Marantz n1711 receiver last week. I have been listening to the towers on my Rotel receiver and amplifier and they are awesome. I am still learning the ins and outs of surround sound, but so far they are better than what I expected.

By mistake I posted my review on the bipolar version of these speakers, now I can't remove it. So I'm putting the same review here as these are the one's I actually have.
I had a Energy take home classic 5.1 speaker setup when I lived in an apartment. I moved to a house recently and setup home theatre in my basement with 100" screen and 4k UST projector. Although Energy's were pretty good, I needed a bigger and more cinema like sound stage without breaking the bank. That's when I found out about Fluance's new Reference Series. I thought of giving it a shot since there's the 30 day risk free trial, not to mention the lifetime warranty. After the initial break-in period (I used youtube speaker burn in music to speed up the break-in process) I cannot believe how good these bad boys sound. The movies truly feel palpable and astounding. It has only been 2 weeks since I got these and I have no intention to return. I like them so much that I subscribed to a hifi music streaming service to experience the sound quality. And they truly make a difference. It feels like the music comes to life, I could feel every note. These speakers are turning me into an audiophile. I feel like these deserve way more popularity and fame. Good job Fluance!
