Onkyo SKS-HT540 Surround Speakers.......2007-08-14

I was pleased with the ovewrall quality of the construction and design of this sound system. The sound while not breath taking is one of the best for the price available. Since my NAD stereo system uses Martin Logan s', I prefer to use it for my musical needs. However, in listen to the AV system I have in place it does a more than adequate job of reproductin DVD's and HDTV sound. Can't be beat for the investment. DrK

Great for small to medium room.......2007-08-07

While this system does not compare to my main HT room system, this entire 7.1 system cost a third of what I spend for my other sub. If this is used with a decent system and is placed in a small to medium size room (less than 2000 cu.ft.) the sound is quite surprising. As with all sub/sat systems, the highs are a little bright but I find myself spending more time in my small HT room than I would have expected. The speaker cables that come with this system are absolute junk, so do yourself a favor and buy decent cables.

I assembled this entire system for less than $2k for my kids when they come to visit but this could work as a main system if $1500-$2000 is your limit, together with room size restrictions as mentioned above. The system consists of a Vizio VX42L HDTV, Oppo DV970HD dvd player, Onkyo TX-SR603S receiver and Dish Network HD receiver (Vip 211)and all the cables from Blue Jeans Cables.

My only complaint regarding these speakers is not the quality or sound but the experience with Vann's. The order took 10 days, they never sent an email confirmation of shipping and no tracking info. The package arrived in great condition, just don't expect much from Vann's.

These sound great.... what a deal........2007-07-19

An amazing deal, they sound great, if a little large in size.. but I think that might be part of the reason they sound so nice, the larger size.

Best deal in America for a 7.1 set of speakers that can handle serious power. Hooked up to a Yamaha RX-V661 7.1-Channel Digital Home Theater Receiver Very nice combo, and both great values for the $$.

I took one of the 3 main speakers apart today to see the drivers and how it was put together. I took some pics and tried to upload them to show people what I saw, but after uploading them, Amazon through up a general "we are experiencing technical difficulties" error. I will keep trying to upload the pictures.. hopefully they will be in the user pics soon. They seem to be very well put together, and the speakers look pretty beefy.

On another note, I do not agree with one of the earlier reviews that state these do not sound good with music.. they sound amazing with all kinds of music. Now my receiver has a plethora of functions and adjustments that allow me to fine tune the sound that comes out of them, but the way I have them adjusted, the speakers sound great with music, movies, TV shows, etc..

Good speakers for the price.......2007-07-13

Frankly, we did not shop around a great deal for speakers and we selected these because of price and the Onkyo brand - we purchased the Onkyo TX-SR605 7.1 Channel Home Theater Receiver.

The speakers sound great and I can only come up with small criticisms:
- The speakers are black which standout too much on our white walls
- The rear speakers are a different size than the larger front speakers
- The front speakers have no "keyhole" or other mounting hardware and there are no speaker stands available from Onkyo
- The wire connection do not support banana plug connectors

We used Monster Cable THX-GP 20-Pack Standard THX-Certified Gold-Plated Speaker Connectors rather than jam the wires into the spring hinge connectors on the speakers.

These are a heavy item and the speakers survived their trip to us fine but the box was a bit beat up. Also we ordered ours from JR Music (thru Amazon) which is on the other side of the country from us. Shipping took a week.

As I said, these speakers do sound great and you are likely to be happy with them too if you don;t let these little things bother you.

AWESOME!! don't waste money on small satellites with small sound!.......2007-04-11

i carefully read reviews and researched these speakers before buying and im NOT disappointed. i was looking to replace a 7.1 setup from Denon that had small stylish satellie speakers. well, the sound matched the speakers -- SMALL! yes, these Onkyos are a little larger than most common surround sets. but big sound resonates best from bigger speaker cabinets. if the Bose concept is so great, why dont movie theaters and rock concerts use tiny little speakers?? bottom line -- because you cant get the same big sound and resonance from tiny speakers. sound is based on vibration, and bigger speakers give bigger sound vibration. these Onkyos have full rich sound with deep bass and great highs as well. a lot of speakers can handle mid-range and bass fine, but fall by the side when it comes to higher registers. i often listen to Native American music with flutes and rich high tones. these Onkyos reproduce the full spectrum of these elegant flutes in full detail. and the price cant be beat. you wont be disappointed!!!

worth it just for a subwoofer and/or rear speakers.......2003-10-29

If you can get this set cheap and need a subwoofer and/or rear speakers, it's worth buying for that reason alone. I bought this set because of rave reviews at amazon and have found that it is a good set, but only as a starter set or for someone on a tight budget. The subwoofer is really great. The sound quality of the 2 front speakers is good, but a bit compressed, and I don't like the center speaker at all. I've opted to keep on using my 15 year old ADS 2-ways for my front speakers, and I'm using the Onkyo front speakers as my rear speakers. I'm not using the Onkyo rear and center speakers at all. Paired with the Onkyo subwoofer, I've got pretty good sound now... I can feel the bass rumble in the floor and the couch as I watch a movie in my 12x12 room, and the rear sound is immersive. My next step will be to drop some real cash on a substantial center speaker... I've learned that skimping here is a sure and quick path to disappointment.

Quality meets Quanity.......2003-01-17

The ONKYO SKSHT500, or On-Key-Yo is a great speaker system for anybody who is a fan of high quality components and is looking to spruce up their HT (Home Theater). The speakers are great for movies, video games, and all sorts of music styles. I love putting in some rap and turning my receiver (Sherwood 7103) to my specialized setting for rap with the bass is all the way up. I really love going up stairs and felling it through 2 stories J The speakers are of great quality, I purchased the 16" speaker stands for the 2 front speakers (L and R). I think they deserve good-looking stands...Ive tried KLH, and for budget they are great since you can find them for [a low price] but they are not close to ONKYO, I mean you cant even touch them with a 100ft pole. I'm 17 and this is the final addition to my HT...If you need some speakers, don't sacrifice for less. And don't be played by the pictures, the 2 mains are about 16" tall!...The one and only disadvantage it that they are not even close to "compact" speakers so pick up some of those stands that they display them on...and...get the taller stands for the rear

Great sound for <$300.......2002-12-29

This is the perfect gift for someone who wants theater quality sound, but who doesn't have ...[thousands] to pay for one of those trendy little satellite speaker systems, most of which only produce average sound. While this set is not advertised as compact, the speakers are good looking and unobtrusive. And do they produce sound. These speakers sound better than any of the BOSE sets I have ever heard at 10% of the price. If you are starting to set up a home theater system, dont skimp on your TV or Reciever, but if you are looking to save on your speakers, buy this Onkyo set, I swear by them.

Terrific sound, terrific value.......2002-12-23

This complete surround sound system by Onkyo offers terrific, home-theater-quality sound. The speakers themselves look sleek, and they sound the best when you have a receiver that allows "mega bass". I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw them in a CC store for this price. After admiring the sound for ten minutes, two other customers and I each bought a set. This is one of the best purchases I've made this holiday season.

A great find.......2002-12-09

After a year and a half searching for anythign worth any amount of money in the home theater speaker industry, I have finnally found something. These speakers give some of the most amazing mid-bass of any system under $. Many cna claim to have a Mid-range but to have mid-bass, where the human voice resonantes, takes speaker cabniets. Sat/ systems with passive or powered subs cannot give good mid-tones because of the small size of the speakers. The highs are sharp and loud while the bass feels disconected with holes in the mid range. NOT THESE SPEAKERS...THEY ARE PERFECT FOR ME. I listen to huge ranges of music from jam/folk bands to hip-hop, while still enjoying stellar home theater sound. I tested all the systems in circuit city and bestbuy one day, and always came back to this one, even Bose. For rich smooth vocals to match the pleasent tones of the sax and deep gut moving phrases on bass, you need cabinet speakers. For the price you can't beat it. The sub is worth $. The speakers are made for Onkyo by a high-end outfit in Japan. Put it this way, i took my sister's boyfriend with me on the test run in Circuit City and he bought a set, so did a guy standing next to us. Spend thousands on Bose, and Infinity for thier name, but for under $ this is the system. Do remeber the speakers are not small little things, they are mid size speakers. I have them in a dorm room, they are't that big. Hope I helped.
