yeah, you know I couldn't wait... as soon as I got home I hooked them up. They sound pretty good so far, but I'm sure they would sound better in a little smaller room. I have them hooked up to my old dayton 12 since the old receiver I'm using with it only has speaker level outputs, and no sub output. But I can't keep them on the floor or the dog may get to them... They look really nice and I think I'll be very happy with them once all is said and done.
