god tier for the price

It is surprising how big, warm, and bright the sound from these speakers are. Not harsh. The response, compared to what I had, is much more even across the frequency range as I can hear it. Mids don't compete with highs, and lows down drown out the highs or mids. They get as loud as I need them to.They look amazing, feel solid, and the controls work perfectly and easily. I got them on sale for just over 100 bucks and they're well worth the price. That was my budget and I couldn't be happier since I don't really feel these are a compromise in any way. I much prefer them to the old Bose Companion 2 set I've had for over a decade which sound muddy in comparison. They also put out much more sound volume than the Bose set. Not bad for a "budget" set of speakers.

I bought these to improve the (miserable) sound quality of my Crosley 7-in-1 media player. It’s super cool but I’ve heard Hallmark cards with better sound quality.These fit nicely on my shelf and look good. I hooked them up via a 3.5mm to RCA cord. I’m genuinely shocked at how good they sound, especially considering the price. They easily fill my office with full spectrum sound. The limiting factor in my setup is 100% the Crosley, not the speakers.I couldn’t disagree with the reviewer that said the bass was lacking more. These have plenty of low end and don’t struggle or get muddy at high volumes.RE connectivity: the other review is incorrect. They only have 2 RCA inputs, nothing else. For my setup, that’s all I need. If you need optical, Bluetooth, or anything else, go with the R1380DB.
