These are on for $449... I've read a ton of reviews, they have been called the best 5.1 system for under $2000... I'm very temped... anyone used these and want to let me know what they think?

For $2000 you can get a set of speakers that would crush those, but I have heard good things about them if you're looking for a home theater in a box solution.

its the same type of deal you get with bose at futureshop during boxing day, around $1000 off. great speakers for the price only on boxing day. otherwise your better off spending $2000 on actual tower speakers, since they have way more power and sound way better than little box speakers such as bose or KEF

I've got them setup w/2 tower speakers for 7.1

The main reason for getting these was space limitations, I didnt want a bunch of towers and a huge center channel speaker, but still wanted great sound. I am in a small room so I cant speak to the individual speaker quality (they all kinda bleed into one, heck my center and fr/fl are only 3ft apart) But for their size I am thouroughly impressed.

I got them a couple years ago from NCIX for 549, they're on sale there quite often so dont ever fall for their non-sale price.
