General Comments

The base on my Memorex TRC 505 speakers is absolutely immense and extremely punchy, perfect for R and B and dance music but also good for all other types of music such as rock, as I am a very big rock fan I'm in a good position to say.

When playing a bassy song, you really feel it hitting your heart like. If your into bass I feel 100% safe to say that you will not feel disapointed with the 15 inch base cones it has. I am not a small or a light person, but I can comfortably sit on top of these speakers which goes to show how hard wearing.

I'm not going to beat around the bush here with anyone, for me personally I used another pair of speakers that I already had which I found helped with the higher noter of the songs. So my suggestion to you would be to add another set of speakers to your system, nothing to big but something that concentrates on treble rather than base. All though if the amplifier you are using has good treble, then I should see no need for other speakers. Even though I have a brilliant 160 watt amp with amazing treble I still prefer extra speakers with it.

Another important thing to know about these speakers is that they are 120watts per speaker, so another suggestion would be to use an amp or music system that has at least 100 watt output. I tested these speakers with a 50watt amp and it was still good, really good for base, but lacked in balance, but I'm just fussy with that.

These speakers also have a high sensitivity/efficiency of 90 DB, this is a lower powered amp may be used and still be good enough. But personally I wouldn't go lower than 50 watts if I was you. If you were to use a 25 watt amp with these speakers then I'm sorry but its pointless, frequency 30 - 20,000.
