Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Enrich the audio performance of your home theater system with this three-piece KLH speaker package. Equipped with a pair of satellite speakers and a center channel speaker, the bundle makes a nice complement to your existing stereo setup, helping you create a full-bodied surround sound system. Each two-way satellite speaker features a 4.5-inch fiber-cone dynamic woofer and a 0.62-inch polycarbonate tweeter, which combine to deliver a frequency response of 80 Hz to 20 kHz. The center speaker, meanwhile, includes a second 4.5-inch fiber-cone woofer to go with its 0.62-inch tweeter, resulting in dialogue that's crisp and clear--a must whether enjoying the latest big-noise, big-budget action spectacle or a thick-accented foreign indie.

Design-wise, the HT-300 BW speakers boast a black finish teamed with applewood side panels, a combination that adds warmth to almost any décor. Plus, listeners will appreciate the speakers' magnetic shielding, which protects your TV screen from video interference when the speakers are located nearby. Safe with stereo equipment rated from 5 to 100 watts, the 8-ohm speakers also come with all the necessary speaker wire, making setup easy.

The satellite speakers measure 5.94 by 8.88 by 5.12 inches (W x H x D) while the center speaker measures 18.5 by 5.94 by 5.12 inches (W x H x D). The HT-300 AW bundle also carries a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

What's in the Box
Two satellite speakers, center channel speaker, speaker cable, user's manual.

4.0 out of 5 stars Totally adequate, February 17, 2006

By	Jane S (Glen Burnie, MD United States) - See all my reviews

I picked these up to add to our "home theater" experience. We have a less than ideal space, ancient main speakers, an ordinary TV, and average technology IQ. These speakers turned out to be totally adequate. They were easy to set up, sound good, look good, and definitely improved the quality of our movie watching. I wouldn't consider them music speakers per se, and wouldn't recommend them to audiophiles, but they are totally adeqaute and inexpensive.

4.0 out of 5 stars BETTER THAN BASIC, November 8, 2005

By	S. LAURSEN (TAMPA FLORIDA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

INITIALLY I WAS DISSAPOINTED IN THE HUGE SIZE OF THE CENTER SPEAKER, BUT AFTER REARANGING MY COMPONETS AROUND A BIT I AM NOW COMPLETLY SATISFIED WITH THESE SPEAKERS.
THEY LOOK GREAT WITH HIGH QUALITY APPEARENCE, AND THE SOUND ALTHOUGH NOT TOP NOTCH ARE PERFECT FOR REAR SURROUND AND CENTER VOICE, AS I HAVE LARGE FLOOR SPEAKERS FOR FRONT SURROUND.
I AM EXPECTING MY ADVENT SUBWOOFER TO ARRIVE ANY DAY TO ADD A LITTLE THUMP TO THE BUMP.
IF YOU DONT MIND A RATHER LARGE CENTER SPEAKER AND YOUR ON A BUDGET, THE THESE WILL FIT THE BILL.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent speakers, April 14, 2007

By	Nancy Ann Serjeant ((blake is the real name)) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just bought these brand new, all I can say is... WOW. These speakers are FANTASTIC. I am using these with a Kenwood digital 5.1 receiver, with an RCA to 1/8" cable running to the digital port on my Audigy 2ZS, and I have an optical cord going to my Xbox. These speakers are just unbelievable for how much you pay, these are worth far more. I have had a lot of experience with speakers, and believe me I was very weary about speakers for this price, but, wow, these really broke the mold. In general, the more you pay for a product, the better it performs, but not always. These are one of the rare exceptions.

Opon receiving the box from UPS, I could just feel that these were quality, these suckers are HEAVY. The center channel is a beast, and the bookshelf speakers are also very sturdy. I have two large KLH bookshelf speakers for the fronts, the center channel that came with this package, and for the rears I use the bookshelf speakers that came with this package as well. For the sub I have a 10" KLH front firing subwoofer that I got for $50 brand new. I modded the hell out of it (added polyfill, added extra screws to hold the driver in place, and painted the driver to make it heavier) and it is now tight, clear, accurate, and LOUD. I have an entire surround speaker system with excellent quality for only $125! You cannot beat that for value/performance in this price range.

Yes, I know many people say "KLH sucks, they are bottum of the barrel" and such. And of course there are better speakers, but that does not mean that these are bad quality by ANY means. I consider myself a major audiophile, and I LOVE these speakers - I could not be happier. :)
