I've never heard their towers and don't have a ton of interest in them. Their satellites are bright (which I like), loud, and play as such with very little distortion. I've picked up their 5.1 speaker package on offerup more than once for < $150. Compare that to $1,000 new and I'd call it a damn good deal. I usually throw the subwoofer away or sell it for $20 or so. I took the center and 6 satellites to make pretty killer HT in my kid's arcade room. Once they were paired with a PB-2000 and a HSU ported sub, all was right with the world.
