(More customer reviews)Heh, no probably not...but they're still AMAZING speakers.I just got these last night from my parents for Christmas.They're an upgrade to the speakers that came with my $200 Sony HT-DDW600 home theater package that I bought for my college apartment almost 3 years ago.
Sadly, I still only have the receiver that came with said home theater package so these speakers aren't doing everything they could be.However, even with that third-rate receiver, the sound from the HKTS-7 speakers is breathtaking.These are a monumental upgrade to the old speakers...especially that massive sub (it's 19" tall).
My apartment was shaking last night while watching the NIN - Beside You in Time HD DVD.And the sub is only turned up about 2/3 of the way (it's got it's own individual level control)!But, unlike the sub that came with the HT-DDW600, this is a self-powered sub and has MUCH cleaner sound.When turning the "bass" up on the receiver past about 4 (out of 10) the woofer would thump/thud and just sound completely overworked and about to explode.The HKTS-7 sub gave deep rich bass with the receiver turned up to 6.I'm absolutely confident that with a proper receiver these speakers will truly show their power.
I'm thinking of matching them with a Harmon Kardon AVR-347.It has HDMI-in/out and, as long as you have a player that can decode them, it will handle Dolby Digital+, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD audio.Adding these speakers with a receiver that handles the high definition audio formats coming from an HD DVD player will provide the ultimate home theater experience for those that either can't afford speakers that cost $2000 each or live in a place that would likely kick them out for pushing that kind of sound around.
The HKTS-7 provides amazing sound for an unbelievable price.I could not be more pleased with these speakers.My only complaints are:
** The ends of the wires are coated in what I would assume is nickel.It's nice, but one of the wires' ends snapped off incredibly easily and then I had to try to not cut off my fingers as I stripped the wires back a bit with a knife.
** The wall brackets require #8 screws in order to be attached to the wall.These are not included.So unless you have some laying around the house somewhere, you'll be needing to make a trip to the hardware store.
Otherwise, I very much look forward to getting a new receiver and watching the Bourne trilogy HD DVDs on my Samsung HLT-6187s 61" 1080p LED DLP HDTV while thoroughly enjoying high definition sound with these speakers.
