Product Description

A perfectly matched and flawlessly sounding five speaker system, the SXHTB+ has the best of both worlds. With high reproduction qualities in music as well as surround sound home theater, this system is perfect in any application. When the SXHTB+ is used in Dolby surround and DTS systems you can truly experience what home cinema is supposed to be. Plus, this system can easily be integrated with an active subwoofer for a true low frequency effect.

The SXHTB+ is internally braced - both vertically and horizontally - to ensure that the acoustic image remains free from cabinet vibrations and driver resonances. The audio grade MDF wood construction also supresses enclosure panel resonance for distortion-free, accurate response. By virtue of the tuned bass reflex cabinet, the SXHTB+ fronts produce a brilliant and dynamic low frequency performance. Coupled with Neodymium balanced pure silk dome tweeters - rare in speakers at this price - the SXHTB+ also provides a smooth and accurate high frequency projection. By utilizing only premium components - such as powerfully dimensioned, high-performance drivers - and boasting a distinct design with a classic natural beech finish, the SXHTB+ offers a pure listening experience that will harmonize perfectly with any modern living area.

What's Included: Two natural beech front floorstanding main speakers, One natural beech center channel speaker, Two natural beech rear surround satellite speakers, Eight 1" isolation floor spikes for used on hardwood or carpeted areas, Full lifetime parts and labor manufacturer's direct warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impossible to beat, in the price range., January 12, 2009

This review is from: Fluance SXHTB+ 5 Speaker Surround Sound Home Theater System (Electronics)
Build Quality and sound. That's really your 1-2 punch here. For a speaker set in this price range (even if it was just a LR stereo set) there is no earthly reason you should be getting anything as well made as this. I was trying to set up an "upgradeable, but functional now" surround system, and figured this would be a good bet for a few years til I got the money for a better speaker set. After hoking everything up though, these speakers will be around for a minute. Absolutely gorgeous, bomb proof quality, gorgeous sound. You will be amazed these came for this price.

Only 2 Caveats though. You will, if not now, then eventually, want to add a matched Sub. The Bass is decent, but not up to Par with what most people will want. Secondly, be aware that the speakers are big, and heavy. These are not going to work with most Theater in a Box targeted surround stands, made for light plastic rear speakers. Also, your two towers are imposing enough to dwarf smaller TV's. just something to consider if you're in the high 20's, low 30's range or smaller.

This review is from: Fluance SXHTB+ 5 Speaker Surround Sound Home Theater System (Electronics)
Couldn't believe the sound right out of the box. I read in other reviews the speakers needed about 10 hours to break in, maybe but I couldn't tell the difference. I put the speakers through a series of tests, my own. Music was incredible, Supertramp, Telivision movies,OnDemand Fios,new Terminator movie and several DVDs both regular and Blu Ray. I have had many spears systems AR's, Bose, Panisonic, Marantz. I don't believe any other speakers sounded this good. I did buy a seperate Dayton 12" sub to fill in the bass. Now everything is smooth. I recieved the set in 2 days after ordering, of courde I only lve across the border, the speakers were double boxed and everything was in tip top shape when it arrived. by the way I'm running the speakers through a563 Yamaha Receiver.

This review is from: Fluance SXHTB+ 5 Speaker Surround Sound Home Theater System (Electronics)
I've had these speakers for 5 years and I guess it's long enough to give them a review. I was looking for a chea... inexpensive set of speakers to go with my (then new) Denon receiver. After days of research I figured that big brands do not sell anything of quality that cheap, but I found an unknown company that people seemed to like, Fluance. So I went to the website and bought these speakers. A few days later they came in nice double boxes.

The mains looked pretty sturdy. They have golden plated connectors on the back and can be doubled-wired (not that I think anyone will bother to do it).

After I hooked them up (and after a break-in period) they started producing very clear sound. Bass is obviously not very deep. But you cannot expect it and Fluance has a matching subwoofer now so it shouldn't be a problem.

Unfortunately backs and especially center are much smaller and less powerful (minus one star). Sound from the center is not that great especially with music. I wish they put a bigger one in the package but after all it's reasonably Ok with movies so I'm still keeping it. Although, again, Fluance has a matching center speaker for sale (I guess it's part of their marketing strategy).

After four years of using them I'm thinking of buying a "brand name" speakers but I cannot convince myself to spend 10 times more money to get something that is only 10 percent better. People seem to think that Fluance are "white van" speakers and they're obviously not. I'm yet to find something in this price range that sounds even remotely that good. And you can always put a fake logo on them to show them off to your friends...
