I have the Birch version of these speakers, and am delighted with them, I have the speakers hooked up to an Onkyo CR515 system, and replaced the original Onkyo speakers with these.
I bought them without listening first (a risk), but they were only £100 + £15 p&p from Hiway.com, I thought I might need a subwoofer, as the boxes only have two 8cm woofers and a tweeter each. I need not have worried, the bass is perfectly adequate, and surprising for such modest dimensions.
They are very slim, only 10cm wide, and look fantastic.
For this sort of money (rrp is £249) you could do a lot worse, but as a surround sound set up, you may want/need a sub, but for normal hifi, I do not think it necessary, very crisp, clear sound, highly recommended.
