Big size but average sound quality compared to other speakers at this price.
The bass is not deep, the quality of the sound is not remarkable. What grabs you though and is the best part of these speakers for me is the stability in the sound coming from the huge size of the speaker which makes the sound very soothing particularly for classical music, but for rock and pop, much better elsewhere.

wondering what sort of set-up you are using with your speakers as i certainly have found no problem with the excellent bass response these speakers produce. i have found on occasion these kicking out so much bass that i could feel the effects through the back of my couch at the opposite side of my living room approxiamately 12 feet away!!

I bought a pair of these from Richer Sounds in Nottingham about 6 years ago. I bought them mainly because of their style and price. They cost me £110 back then.
I agree with Wolfburgman on bass reproduction. I have not bi-wired these and I'm driving them with a pretty old Technics amp. The bass is fantastic. If you're getting poor sound, I suggest you have an amplification problem, connection problem, or are listening to these in something like a meadow or very very VERY large room. On hearing how they handled some of my more "challenging" music, a music-loving friend of mine described them as the "mother" of all speakers. Offered me £500 for em! They are still with me! I'm by no means a connoisseur but the overall sound quality in my opinion is remarkable. Constantly in use, and never miss a beat, never any faults just beautiful sound. An absolute bargain. Out of curiosity (and how i happened upon this page) I am looking for another pair to buy in stand-by. Sod's law has been in full swing for me lately and i'm a bit supersticious. If these ever go wrong, I don't know how I will cope! Yes there are other speakers out there, but alas not for a sensible price. If anyone reads this, you should get a pair. Provided they havent been abused and look in reasonable shape Im sure you will get many years of enjoyment from them.
