I am a college student and money is a big thing with me (or should i saw small). I finally moved into my own house and wanted a decent "my first home theatre" system. I have a reciever with Dolby Digital 5.1 so ofcourse i needed a decent speaker system. At first i was worried about the quality of this system (since its so cheap) but i am proud to say i am very pleased.

I suggest this to anyone who is "feeling out" the home theatre kick for the first time, serious listeners will also be pleased i believe. 2 thumbs up from all my friends also.

I bought this to provide sound for my 50W DVD/Receiver. This is my first experience with home theater so I was very careful not to spend to much. So far, it is very good.

I have it in a mid-sized living room and the sound is enjoyable. I am satisfied with the price. We can listen to music through-out our house with it.

I would buy this again if I was looking for a lower-end starter system. Good results.

When I went looking for surround sound speakers there were 3 things I wanted: K-L-H. This system has not let me down. Even at a low setting, the sub-woofer makes everything so much clearer and just rocks the house. My teenage son is rediscovering all of his music with a center speaker and a sub woofer. We live in a one-story house of about 900 sq. feet and anywhere you are it sounds like the speakers are inches away. These speakers may be small but they deliver pure power. And Amazon.com's price just made it soooooo much sweeter

For the price of this set, you absolutely cannot go wrong. I have this set hooked up to my Kenwood VR-305 receiver, and I cannot believe how good these sound. I have been using surround sound for about 6-7 years now, and this complete set matches, in fact surpasses in a lot of ways, my prior speakers which a mix of Infinity and Sony. I used to have 2 large front speakers w/12 inch woofers that combined did not put out as much clean bass and overall clarity as these KLH's do. The subwoofer has all the adjustments you could need to get it soudning good, and the satellites do a splendid job in reproducing the high and mid ranges. You do have to fiddle around to get the right balance between the speakers and the sub, but once you do, you will be sincerely impressed. The center channel matches the quality of my Infinity center channel (I paid 150 for that one alone). If you are an audiophile you probably could find some faults with it, but for the music and movie lover like me who likes good, rich, clean sound, I dont see why you would spend more on another set...unless of course you could afford or would be willing to spend hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for speakers (I cant, and even if i could, i wouldnt!). The only reason I dont give this set 5 stars is because the "auto" power on the sub (which is supposed to kick the sub on when audio is detected) is not very sensitive, and the power sometimes shuts off at lower volume levels. So for low levels you just have to leave the sub on and take the little extra effort to turn the sub off when you're done using it. Otherwise, I would not hesitate to recommend this set anyone. Its probably the best value on a speaker package you'll get for this price.

This speaker system, if you already have a good receiver that gives out 100 watts per channel, then these speakers will meet your needs. The 8 inch sub woofer compliments the 4 3-way satellite speakers and the 1 center channel speakers.

I got a $200.00 gift certificate to spend at Amazon.com and needed surround sound speakers, so I bought by price... Now I wasn't expecting Bose quality here, and my expectations were not exceeded. For the money I got a great subwoofer and decent center channel, but the four satellite speakers were pretty weak on sound quality... about the same as having four clock radios around the room. So, my advice? Save up a little more and buy at least the next grade up.

I have KLH HTA-9005 and PSW-8100, which are the exact components in this system, however cost less :) I am pretty happy with my system. It sounds great! Two small points though: Satellites could use some more highs and sub makes some humming in low volumes.

Although the price is cheap, this is a great product. Take my word for it and my friends and my parents. I have a small room but these speakers blast it with radical sound. The sub-woofer rattlers just about the hole house. When I turn on this system my parents get angry but really you can regulate the vibration and the volume can be easily turned down. I am 13 yrs. old. I would pick this system over any other system. The center speaker on this piece delivers great clear sounding lyrics. Even when listening to rap or heavy metal you can hear base, treble, and all the words

Only problem I have encountered is the subwoofer making the metal on top of my receiver rattle!! That really gets annoying, but I'll simply move the receiver elsewhere. These are a great value, and offer good imaging if placed correctly.
