Okay, so, there's virtually no reviews of these speakers to be found online, so I went out on a limb buying these, though I own only Sonly products if I can help it because - hey, let's face it: Sony makes great stuff! Some peoplesay Sony is overpriced. I say that's a load of old horsefeathers. Apple is overpriced.Okay, so $550 (how much I paid for the set from Sony Style in Boston, MA) for a 5.1 home theater speaker setup that doesn't include a receiver or bundled blu-ray player like most of the rest of Sony's home theater offerings, is definitely a little pricey, but once I got these babies hooked up to my STR-DN2010, oh man, they were smokin' and tokin'! I got serious goosebumps from the sound. In a word: Amazing.TV? Amazing. DVD? Amazing. Playstation, Xbox, and Wii? Amazing. MP3 player? Amazing. I'm no audiophile but whether it was a consequence of the receiver (of which I've seen receive a few none-too-favorable reviews) or just the speakers themselves, for their form factor (sleek, slim, monolithic, aesthetically exciting) or just the sound itself, these speakers did not fail to disappoint, and I've owned some powerful sound systems in my day so I've got a bar that I've set pretty high to which these speakers were held to.So, yes, there are some things I didn't like, but they're little things and I'm neurotic, but so I'm not accused of being a Sony fanboy, I'll relate them. One, I tipped over a rear speaker and when it fell the plastic scuffed a bit more easily than I would have liked. Not too noticeable, but I know it's there so it irks me. Two, the process to put the wire into the speakers if you want to use the stands (which I did) is bothersome enough for the tabletop speakers, but if you're using high-quality speaker wire - which tends to be thick - pushing that wire through the narrow tube through the floor-stands to reach the speaker was kind of a pain. Nothing too serious though. Three, the subworker has a powersave function that turns the unit off after several seconds with no base signal. When it shuts off it makes an audible loud click. There's a switch on the unit to turn this feature on and off, but if you want it on and your audio source cuts or fades the baseline in and out in a sequence longer than the auto-shutoff timer on the unit, it will click on and off multiple times.Last, I really like these speakers and I'd consider ordering two more to create a full 7.1 setup like my receiver allows but these speakers, unique as they are, are currently only available as part of the set. *sigh*I've only just got the SA-VS310s set up last night and have been listening to them for a few hours now, but so far the pros, by a thousand leagues, outdistamce any cons I've yet encountered. So give these speakers a chance if you're looking for a very good high-end entry level home theater speaker set, you won't regret it!

These speakers are great. I'm very conscious of sound and like really good 5.1 speakers. It took me a while to decide on these. I liked the look but was worried about the sound quality, being that they were very small speakers. I was able to try them in a local BestBuy, which isn't always the easiest to do, and they sounded good. I bought them from Amazon after many weeks of deliberation. When I got them there was no doubt, they were great. The sound that comes out of these small speakers is pretty impressive. You should always keep in might that these are not large professional speakers. They produce really good sound, but your need a decent receiver. Nothing will ever be as good as large speakers, but these are perfect for those of us that like great sound and love small stylish speaker systems.ProsGreat sound from small speakersVery stylish designConsCan't buy speaker stands for the rear speakers

I bought the system directly from the seller (TigerDirect, Inc.), they had the system for $149.99 with a $50 rebate. I couldn't pass on that deal at least based on the fact that these speakers were selling for much more than that outside.The box arrived promptly as promised (shipped via UPS), ordered on Wednesday evening around 6pm and received by Friday noon. So no complains there. The product was well protected, although I Styrofoam protecting the sub-woofer was broken (the unit looked and functions fine). Thats everything I can talk about the shipping and packaging.The speaker system really compliments my TV and entertainment setup. I have a black LG tv and the speaker system has the same glossy black plastic and makes it go well together. I have the center speaker resting on the TV's base and it looks good. The hook up was easy and was more or less a no brainer. Another thing I liked was that the speaker wires are fed in through the stand and thus hides it inside. They were all very well packaged and covered, so issues there either. The glossy plastic is very shiny, so make sure to wear a gloves to keep the finger prints away during installation (I learned the hard way). I have it hooked up to a Sony STRDH720 7.1 receiver to make use of the in wall rear speakers that I already had. The speakers came with the wires that are pre-cut and trimmed so that its easy to insert into the press pins in the back, but were too thin for my taste. I used 16 gauge speaker wires from Home Depot for my installation. Overall I am happy with the purchase, and it was a good deal at that price.Pros: Nice and loud, Sub-woofer has a really good base (I had to tone it down a little bit after the auto calibration using the dedicated dial on the back)., Beautiful looking speakers that compliments the setup, slim look that gives it a modern design outlook, Cables are hidden away inside the stands making it really convenient.Cons: Only gripe I have is regarding the sub-woofer floor support. The system comes with some tiny pads that you can stick under the woofer and might be enough for carper or wood flooring. I have slate tiles that are very uneven and jagged. The bottom of the sub-woofer is also the same glossy plastic that I am sure will get scratched up if not taken care of. I am comparing this to an Onkyo or Pioneer sub-woofers that come with a feet that raises the unit above the floor. Because of this I have to get some nice silicone padding material and cut it to size and rest the sub-woofer on it to prevent and damages.I will keep this comment updated based on usage and time.
