Just thought I would take the time to review this item as I have just popped on to purchase my third pair of these speakers!!

I originally bought two sets to connect to my cambridge audio amp. I have one set in the kitchen and one set in the conservatory. The third set I have just purchased will go in the lounge. I use these via the amp and a speaker splitter to play music from my ipod around the house.

The sound quality is more than satisfactory for my undiscerning ear (what do you want for 25 quid!?).

Fully recommend that anyone looking for budget speakers buys a set of these. Also worth mentioning I called the seller with a technical question. he was very friendly and helpful and told me all I need to know.

5 stars!!

Bought theese speakers for old system in spare room great sound for the price,first class service from Amazon

I bought this speaker to use with my mini hi-fi that I put in my son's room. After reading the review I decided to give it a try and I purchase a pair through Amazon. I was suprise with the sound and build quality for the unit. I'm a Hi-Fi enthusiast and I'm quite familiar with sound quality. With the money that I had spend to buy this speakers 5 Star is what it deserve. I was suprise with the performance from the minute I hook it up with my Yamaha and using a QED speaker cable (worth more than the speaker itself) the sound is just excellent. I definately recommend the speakers for those who want to listen to good music without breaking the bank.

As my trusty 25 year old speakers had finally bit the dust and after reading the reviews of these speakers i decided to give them a go as they are such a great price. All i can say is they are worth 5 times the price. I have them in my office and they simply great quality. The sound is clear, never brittle or harsh with smooth bass.
I would recommend them to any one.

I was a little surprised to read the last and critical review of these speakers. True, if you pay more money, you will get better speakers, fact of life. But £25. would barely pay for a pair of high quality speaker cables, let alone the speakers themselves! I am using the speakers with a Rega RP1 turntable, Arcam Alpha amp (yes the first in the series, now nearly an antique) and 16 amp mains flex for speaker cables. The bass control does need to be turned up a bit, but the speakers sound remarkable for the money. I haven't used the 'bell wire' cables supplied, but I suspect that if you do use these, the sound will be thin. If you cannot run to quality speaker cables, mains flex is an economic alternative.
It is also important to remember the GIGA rule (garbage in garbage out). If the speakers are being fed with a low quality and thin signal, they will sound low quality and thin, even if you are using high end hi-fi speakers.

These are fantastic performers! I downgraded my system due to the recession and out went Epos speakers and in came these, plus cheapo Renkforce amp. The results are terrific for the money. These little speakers give sound I can live with ... I suggest you ignore the supplied cable (which looks like bell wire to me) and get something a little better, such as QED original speaker cable, also available from Amazon. One point to note: cable connection is via spring-loaded clips, so you can't push-in thick cable, including the QED! Banana plugs won't fit, either - unless you really jam them in. Ixos gold plated speaker pins (available via Amazon) are the thing even though they will wobble about a bit. (I use them.) Highly recommended.

I am using them connected together as centre speakers due to space and position limitations. They sound great are well made and incredible value!

Great value for money - good enough for my ears. Quick delivery and well packaged

These speakers are great value for money,I use them to enhance the sound of my TV and mp3 through a small amplifier.The sound out of these two beauties is fantastic I would recommend them to anyone.

I Needed some new cheap speakers for my Hi-Fi and was surprised what I got for my money. these are excellent quality speakers which are better and cheaper than there predecessors. I would recommend these to anyone.
