 Great sounding speakers July 10, 2008

I have had these speakers along with the SS-CN5000 center channel and the SA-W3000 sub woofer for about 2 weeks now. They sound great. I have them hooked up to an Onkyo TX-SR606. I also bought two SS-B1000 bookshelf speakers to use as my 5.1 surrounds but do not have them hooked up yet.
I do not understand how people bash Sony speakers simply because of the name without ever hearing them. I would never spend twice the money or more on a Polk speaker setup when I can get a set of these(I use Polk as an example because reviewers on AVSforums or other sites always seem to tell people to buy the Polks instead).
I will admit I am not a pro when it comes to speakers but I like movies and music to sound as good as the next person and these have been great. I would recommend them to anyone.

Sony speakers are almost always condemned by audio salesman. Don't believe them. I matched up these Sony 7000 towers with the Pioneer Elite Integrated Amp and the sound is simply spectacular. Voices sound like they are in your room. Close your eyes and you will swear the violin is only a few yards away. The clarity is simply amazing. I spent months scanning audio websites before choosing the Sony and I made the right decision. My excellent results are for stereo only. I have no idea how they may sound in a 5 channel setup. But if price is a factor and you need towers, this Sony is a spectacular bargain.
 Towers are good! June 15, 2008

I bought these to replace two small Sony fronts for my surround! I am not dissapointed although the sound is not truly superior they fill the bill very well.

If you are on a budget, you will not find a better pair of speakers that can handle the power and sound this good. I use them mostly with an Art SLA1 100W/channel amp for mixing music.
The only problem is that the grills are very cheap. They were both broken when the speakers arrived from Vanns. It has been 1 month and I still do not have replacement grills. For some reason they even sent me to Sony.?? It is not Sony's responsibility!
Bottom line...I'm impressed with the speakers, not the customer service!
Extremely Pleased April 21, 2008

I needed speakers that were good for listening to live concert band performances. My budget could not handle the Ifinity or JBL. I heard the Sony 5000 with a subwoofer and it sounded great, especially with the small price attached. I immediately ordered the 7000 speakers and couldn't be happier, The sound is crisp and clean and very "Band" friendly. I do recommend a subwoofer be used to get the fullness of the bass that is preferred.
