Good Points

Unbeatable value for money! Given and driven a clean and accurate source and amplification, the sound clarity and natural presentation is among the best available at any price.


Bad Points

Size? But that only adds to the value of these speakers!


General Comments

I have heard and owned many loudspeakers in the last 45 years, including hi-end and studio monitors. Having just connected the 602s3's to a new Onkyo TX901 and fed by an Onkyo DV HD805, I can now say they are right up there with the best I have heard - regardless of price!

I should add that I have added a 3ohm resistor to the tweeter which not only smooths that very slight exuberance but also generally rounds off the sound perfectly! Voices, vocals, pianos, violins, trumpets, drum kits and bass lines have never sounded so natural! All my 60s and 70s collection has a new lease of life! Film soundtracks - especially HD DVD - are simply stunning, as I have a pair of 601s3's as surrounds and will modify my second pair of 602's as a centre, with a custom built sub.

If you are lucky enough to own a pair already, try adding a 2 to 3ohm resistor (depending on your room and set up) to the tweeter. For everyone else, hope you find a pair!
