Advantages: Absolutely superb midrange frequencies and very smooth treble. Neutral and yet very atmospheric. Beats many speakers at twice its price. Disadvantages: Slight problems with three-dimensional reproduction and upper bass overemphasis. Power-hungry and thus critical with some amplifiers.
...,500 for the whole system like I did, this is obligatory. You may be asked to leave a deposit, but if the dealer still refuses, pick a different shop. Make a pre-selection in the dealer's showroom, and then take the best two or three models home for a week.
Speakers sound different in every room. In the showroom the B&W CDM 2 was far ahead of the ALR Step 2, but in my own surroundings the gap narrowed, making it almost a tie.

Do you hear convincing surround sound effects as intended by the movie producers, immerse you into the movie and thus enhance your enjoyment ? Once again the answer is "YES".
5/. If you want decent home theatre sound but cannot install a multi-speaker surround system or you simply don't want to, then these products are a solution that do work.
6/. After reading forums on the net, I had the idea that the Polk was going to sound better than the YSP when it came to music. Actually for CDs etc, they both sound about the same, have a similar tone, both produce a big...
