I love these speakers! I bough them through best buy though. Thought my review might help someone who is internet researching this product. First of all, the sound is amazing and crisp (try listening to live acoustics). I use these as my front main speakers with a 5.1 yamaha receiver. Among other bookshelf speakers that I compared at best buy, each of the Bose 301 speakers comes with a 8" woofer, translation: U really dont need a subwoofer any more, so that alone saves u at least $100 on a separate woofer. Imaging is not as advertised though, the claim is (stereo everywhere) but I definitely think there is a sweet spot for these speakers. However, for around $300 and you dont need a sub, and it is load enough and the bass is powerful enough to make my room rumble at full blast, I think it is the best speakers for $300. Best underdog speakers from Bose, the other speakers from Bose are probably not as value for money
