5.0 out of 5 stars Big Sound, September 25, 2002

I can't believe the big sound that these little speakers put out. I got them for my girlfriend as a gift a few months ago, and now I'm picking up a pair for myself. They're replacing the expensive speakers I bought a couple of years ago. Cambridge Soundworks is a great company and I love their stuff.

This is sort of an atypical review: I never actually heard these M50 speakers play. You'll have to read the other reviews posted to get a feel for their sound quality. But I have to say that the fit and finish on these was impeccable: the joinery and wood finish was at a level one would expect from fine furniture--flawless joints, miters, and dados. And these are heavy units--11 pounds apiece, according to my bathroom scale.

But what is especially worthy of recognition is that Cambridge SoundWorks took these speakers back--even paid the return shipping on them--because they had posted the incorrect dimensions for them (off by a critical 0.25 inch) on their Web site and, consequently, they would not fit the space I had allocated for them. Within one day, Cambridge had corrected the dimensions on their site, and I received a postage paid return address label that week. They credited my card for the full purchase price after the return was received. Their phone personnel were uniformly helpful, apologetic, and clear in helping solve the problem.

In short, if you are perhaps concerned about buying speakers sight unseen and sound unheard, you needn't be with Cambridge: they made it clear to me that they stand behind their product and are totally committed to customer satisfaction. Rest assured that I will certainly look to Cambridge again when I need speakers because I am convinced that complete customer satisfaction is their overwhelming goal.

I've had these speakers for only a single day and I've been completely blown away by the quality of the sound and the craftmanship of these speakers. First of all, the finish is wonderfully smooth and elegant looking. I am suprised by how well designed these speakers are for the price. Sound quality is exceptional: far superior to similiar speakers by Infinity or Polk Audio. Bass is excellent for speakers of this size: tight and controlled without being overpowering. The treble and midrange is well-balanced with great seperation of sound. Overall, I am very pleased with the quality of these speakers. These speakers are my first Cambridge Soundworks purchase and I'm sure to be a repeat customer in the future.
