Sounds great for my little room. Only using it on stereo mode since I don't watch movies at all in there.

Cosmetic condition is ok, if you are looking at the speakers from the front they are flawless besides being dusty

 
great deal bro does it all work good? i dont wana b a d ick but today i got a nice guitar amp, 6foot cord , guitar soft case , set of strings ,guitar starp, and a nice guitar tuner for 25.00 picked up . he wanted like 40.00 for it all i went there to get the amp and cord and said i will give u 25.00 is that cool for your stuff he said yes. i got over 100.00 worth of good workin sh it.

 
Yeah it all works great. Had to drive over two hours round trip to get it but in a Yaris that is only $6 in gas lol.

Nice deal I don't know anything about guitars lol

 
onkyo speakers ****, but the receivers/amps are ok
the receiver is worth about $50, the speakers maybe $10
speakers sound good, it is all about personal preferences //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

What may sound good to you may not be the same for me and vice versa.

true, but all around build quality and sound quality ****

the "what sounds good to you" only goes so far, then you get into onkyo, sony, toshiba, klh, etc..."speakers in a box" and that rule does not apply because honestly anyone with ANY ear at all can tell they ****

$40 for the receiver was a decent deal, but move on to better speakers

 
they are the same as infinity...nice sounding stuff IMO..plus he only bought it for his little dorm room for 40$....who really cares if it doesnt sound like a concert?
