4.0 out of 5 stars A great speaker at this low price, November 9, 2007

By	Mr homeowner (Fremont, CA) - See all my reviews

The one reviewer who rated them one star WITHOUT LISTENING TO THEM should be ignored. I have two pair of theses speakers installed in rear walls and side walls for 7.1 system and they work fine. I had someone over last weekend and I had to point the speakers out for him, he had never noticed them before [he had been in the house 6 to 8 times before]. I turned the speakers off and went to stereo and then he noticed them right away! I am very happy with them and and the "disappear" when the speaker grilles are painted wall color. That was the idea when I got them. A pair of three way, in the wall, eight inch woofer speakers for $80 to $90 is a GREAT deal. I may now put three of them in the front as main and center speakers cause the wife does not like the large speakers I am using there now. I am running these speakers with Audiosource's "low boy" subwoofer which is also a fine speaker and works very well.

4.0 out of 5 stars AudioSource AS8S Speaker Review, January 11, 2007

By	J. Wells - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Good value for speakers of this quality. Ordred 3 pairs of speakers of which one speaker of one of the pair had distortion. All of the other speakers sound great. Called Audio Source tech support to obtain an in-warranty replacement without any hassles. Did take Audio Source 1 1/2 months to send me a replacement (only after I called and reminded them). Replacement speaker works fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the average homeowner, June 21, 2008

By	A. C. Payne (Brewster, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I would not consider myself to be an audiophile, but I do care about how my music and DVDs sound. I have had these speakers for several years now and I have absolutely no complaints. They sound great today as they did upon installation. They might not satisfy audiophiles (but then nothing does), but I expect that most folks will be highly satisfied.

The in-wall nature of the speakers was just what we were looking for. After having had some big old beasts that sounded great but took up lots of floor space and then taking a look at some smaller speakers that still required us to find space for them, these speakers were just what the doctor ordered. We have not even painted the grills (what if we repaint the room another color?), but we think that the speakers look great as they are. Enjoy.
