Advantages: Small and compact. Nice setup for the first time venture into Home Cinema. Disadvantages: Not very stylish. Lacks a "punch" from the Subwoofer.
This is a small set of Home Cinema speakers that are OK for a small living room or bedroom, come Man-Room.
Not the most stylish of speakers I must say, however hooked up to a decent Amplifier ( I have the Onkyo 605), these little babies shine. They are more suited to Movies than Music, but you can get a good sound for Music if you tweak the settings on the rear of the Subwoofer. They also bring your Games console to life as well, utilizing the full range of ingame sounds that are available.
If there is one gripe I have with these is the lack of depth to the subwoofer, however you cannot expect miracles from what is essentially a budget speaker system.
In summary, well worth the modest asking price, albeit not very stylish. Recommended for anyone looking for their first venture into HomeCinema. ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Tannoy EFX 5.1
Advantages: Small,unobtrusive satellite speakers. Disadvantages: Not as good as larger speakers.
I brought my set of tannoys 15 months ago and, at the time,they cost £300.Now,with a little searching around,they can be obtained for under £200.
What you get in the box is five satellite speakers(two front,two rear and a centre speaker) plus a seperate powered subwoofer.
You also get wall mounted supports for the two front and two rear speakers and all the speaker cables(i changed the cables to 79 stand q.e.d. speaker cable to improve the sound).
Setting up the system is relatively easy:you just need an electric drill for the the wall mounted stands and once fitted,you just connect the cables to your home cinema amp. Easy!!
Once you have connected everything,it is time to try out the system. My first reaction and i am sure yours will be the same was one of complete disbelief!!
The sound quality for such small speakers ...
Advantages: True 5.1 surround sound, clear quality, built in mic. Disadvantages: Not very durable and breaks easily.
Theres not many headsets out there that can say they have full 5.1 surround sound. The medusa 5.1 pulls this off very well and is a fantastic headset for gaming.
Let me start of with the packaging. The headset is wonderfully packaged inside the box. Complete with soft lining and ribbon to finnish. A nice surprise. It comes with all the cables that you need, and more that I couldn't work out what they were for.
Set up was a little tricky and the manual that it came with wasn't the most helpful. After about an hour or so of fiddling with the cables and doing sound checks I managed to get the 5.1 working, including the microhpone.
The quality you get from the headphones is great. Crisp sounds and a decent level of volume. Obviously the 5.1 isn't as distinguished as a full set of surround sound speakers will ever be, but it does ...
