Just received my speakers and could not wait to hear them. According to CV's website the XLS series replaced the CLS, with improved performance see also:

I never had Cervin Vega speakers and red a lot of reviews (all of them about the CLS), before I made a buying decision. Well, I was right. I hooked it up with my new Harman/Kardon HK3490 and used big fat jumper cables. The speaker limit is 500 Watt each. The Harman/Kardon produces 120 Watts at 8ohm per channel. The impedance of the speakers is 6ohm, so you can say we talking about 150 watts per channel. With 500 Watts to play with, 150 Watts is "under-motorized" you think? Well, let's go on....

And now the test drives. I am the proud owner of a very rare Pink Floyd CD "Original Master Recording" - "Dark Side of the Moon" and guess what, this was my first pick.

Pumping up the volume to - 10 db (the HK goes up to + 10db) I reached a level where the pictures on the wall begun to move and I stopped to avoid any extermination of my personal property. BUT the best thing: The sound was unbelievable, great dry kicking bass, full presents of middle frequencies and undistorted treble. WOW.

I bought everything at Amazon at an amazing cheap price (Receiver and speaker together $ 1309). Compare to Bose Sound Systems for several thousand dollars this is the real deal. Forget the overpriced tiny little crap. Real sound comes from real speaker and that's it. There are Physical limits in size, believe it or not. Conclusion: The Bigger - The Better. And these speakers are BIG. If you like to go to concerts, then this is what you need. Don't look any further - you found your final solution.

PS: Make sure your neighbors have the same taste of music.....

PPS: The funny thing: Each speaker came with an "Extra Party Fuse" (if you reach that level, your ear doctor can buy his next condo).

What can I say. These speakers are great. Have always been a Cerwin Vega fan. I own a pair of the AT series, VE series and CLS series. This is the new (2010) series XLS. These things sound great at all listening volumes. But don't be scared to turn them up when your favorite song is on. A real great sounding pair of speakers.

purchased a set of the xls-215s. im old school with my stereo equipment. im so glad i gave these a try. i still have my 3 way cerwin vegas. 15 inch subs. well i say i have them i gave them to my son. i hooked up the 2 new xls 215s and im pushing them with a pioneer sx-1250. 160 wpc. these speakers handle up to 500 watts. these things are awsome. the highs are so much better than the old speakers and the bass is AWSOME. my neighbor ask me what kind of speakers i had. he said they sounded good even in his garage. well any way if you dare to get a pair you wont need anymore. i think i have moved my house about 3 inches off the foundation. they also come with what they call party fuses. i dare not go there. any way A++++++++ for these speakers. highly recomended.
