Review from Home Theater Magazine

Review from HomeTheaterMag.com: Boston Acoustics SoundWare XS Speaker System

Home Theater Magazine ReviewsGaze back into the mists of time, and you’ll find that the earliest loudspeakers were boxes with nothing but right angles. This shape lends itself to efficient manufacturing techniques and is still used for most speakers. However, speaker designers have rebelled against the box for some time.

Product Description

The SoundWare XS 5.1 Loudspeaker System is an ultra-compact 5.1 speaker system that brings a new level of style and substance to the fast-growing surround sound home entertainment category. It allows users to enjoy rich, room-filling surround sound with their home entertainment systems, while complementing virtually any décor in a stylish yet subtle (even virtually unnoticeable, if desired) manner. The system's five ultra-compact and stylish SoundWare XS satellites are real two-way speakers (unlike many competitors). Each features a high-performance 2½-inch (64mm) woofer and a ½-inch (13mm) tweeter. The contoured-rectangle subwoofer, colored to match the satellites in either black or white, features a 100-watt (250 watts peak) amplifier and 8-inch (203mm) driver. Wall brackets are included for easy installation of all five satellite speakers.

5.0 out of 5 stars (Relatively) Big sound from small speakers!, November 18, 2010
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Boston Acoustics Soundware XS 5.1 Home Theater System (White) (Electronics)
I bought these about two months ago & for the size, they make a big sound! Now, let's be real here. They don't sound as detailed or loud as floor standing speakers, or larger bookshelf speakers. Whithout the sub, they sound pretty small. That's because they are. But if you want some great looking & sounding surround sound system in a box, this is a great choice. I have this in a small living room set up. I had my Sony STR-DH710 7.1-channel A/V Receiver with 6 HD Inputs [3D Compatible]calibrate the speakers & viola! Excellent home theater sound. I plugged my iPod into it & listen to a wide variety of music, from MF Doom to Leonard Cohen & points in between. To my ears sound better than Bose (I think they're overrated, anyway).
They're small enough to not be an eyesore to most girlfriends/ wives. A BIG plus!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Value, nice quality, December 5, 2010

This review is from: Boston Acoustics Soundware XS 5.1 Home Theater System (White) (Electronics)
After shopping, and shopping, and shopping for a surround sound speakers in WHITE, (most of them are black) I settled on this Boston Acoustic system. I think the sound quality is quite good and they are sooo much cheaper than the Bose systems. Plus, they come with really nice brackets which give you several mounting options. Most speaker systems don't come with brackets and you'll end up spending another $50-$100 for them, and they're not even all that good. These brackets include a "ball and socket" type mount and wall and corner mounting options. Really nice quality and they look great. My only complaint is I wish the subwoofer was smaller. But they're all pretty large these days. For my purposes, which is listening to music and movies, these speakers sound great and are barely noticed in a room. They are very good looking and nicely built.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice. and White., April 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Boston Acoustics Soundware XS 5.1 Home Theater System (White) (Electronics)
Using with a Onkyo SR602 receiver. We have the 5 speakers mounted on the ceiling; woofer is nice. Good sound quality. Plenty of volume. Recommended for 5.1 surround sound deployments.
Using with a 3D TV - nice. Matches decor of the room.
