Customer Reviews: Excellent Surround Speakers May 25, 2010 William M. Damsgaard I have the collection of Boston Acoustics Classic Series and I am very happy. I didn't realize that my old, cheap speakers sounded like tin cans. One is immersed in the sound using these speakers meaning that you don't really pay attention to which speaker the sound is coming from, only that it's there and you are seemingly in the picture being viewed. I actually have to mute the system when my make of phone rings during playback to be sure it's not mine ringing. This collection is attractive sitting in my viewing area. The sub-woofer is the most important part of this system and it's awesome. I don't recommend this speaker collection if you live in an apartment complex (it's too loud for your neighbors). I have the CS26B for my right and left, The CS225CB for the center, the CSSUB10B for the sub-woofer and CS23B for rear surrounds. I plan to add two more CS23B speakers for height speakers in the front to create a Dolby-IIz system. The collection sounds better than my local "small town" cinema and probably as good as a large, professional cinema. Try them with a Yamaha Theater Receiver.

Bostons CS23 bookshelf/satellite speakers rock out, a pair with a sub will rock the house, paired up in a 5.1 system as rear satellites they will produce, great speakers and you don't have to go broke getting them, I had the chance to hear them a local store and they rocked,I purchased thru Amazon for better pricing and with the free shipping you can't go wrong, for the bang for the buck the are worth the listen,if you get the chance, rock on !!!!!!!
