When we checked it out, it was for additional speakers besides our main speakers. We returned them because they didn't seem to have a good enough quality even for that. The size was what we were looking for but the sound totally cancelled that idea.

It is small and couldn't be a main speaker. However, for surround sound it has a great sound and I would recommend it for that.

Weak by itself. I ran a separate sub woofer on my first one. I sent it back to BIC. I think the crossovers were done incorrectly. They sent me a new one, still in box and is for sale

Sorry, I'm a newbie at home theater stuffs, but why do we need a separate "subwoofer cable"? Won't the speaker wires work? I'm using a HTiB and they all use one type of speaker cables, even the subwoofer. I'm just curious as I'm about to get this system and have to learn how to set it up with a receiver. Thanks.

Marcus...thanks for the input. Not the response I really wanted to hear, but the one I expected to get. I'l let you know which way I go. Anyone have a pro position on in-wall speakers???

AK, I don't quite get your question, but here is my take. I purchased these speakers about a year ago, and have no complains about its performance. To me they are very efficient for the use I give them. Whether its music or movies, they rock and they are not that small. They can be used as front or rear in a surround set up. When it comes to speakers, there is such a wide variety, that you really have to do your homework and based on all the info that you gather, then make a decision. I do not regret getting these. They add to my decor and they sound great. Good luck.

i have a Polk PSW125 Sub, that i have had for a while, it sounds great with the Klipsch Quintet 5.0 speakers, i think that any good powered sub, will do fine.

Really it depends on your system and what you want to do. But typical surround setup would require just one center speaker and that is what this is. Fantastic sound quality and output as well by the way. I know I ordered these for a friend and set this up along with a pair of the bookshelf speakers and they sound great. Now my setup also allows me to only use this center speaker alone and I could not believe the output by this one alone. Hope this answer helps you and good luck. I would highly recommend this to someone looking for good surround speakers and have the money.

Yes, it will work with any other speakers as mains. It is best to use your "sub out" on your receiver to send the signal to the subwoofer. The main speakers are unimportant as far as brand name. However, most people choose to use all same brand for their fronts, center, and rear surrounds though because they are voiced similar to eachother (have similar sounding characteristics) Hope that helps you out.

Very little IMO. The main speaker cone has such a short travel & distorts to anything. Would work fine if you rely on a sub woofer as you main source of bass. I purchased them because of the great reviews & feedback by most who said they provide excellent bass. If you're relying on these speakers for bass, I'd go a larger size if I were you & go the Alpine route if you can pluck down an extra $15-$20 as you indeed get what you pay for.

I would recommend a sub and surround speakers. I use a sub and it sounds great. I also got the matching center channel which is awesome too.

I'll preface that I'm no pro-audio expert, but based on how much this powers my 1 sub, I think this will be plenty of power for 2 subs, and still leave you 4 channels for the rest of your speakers. I would recommend shooting a call to your local best buy and just ask the geek squad car audio reps...they helped me even though I didn't buy it from them...they are actually the ones who recommended this amp versus one of they sell.

This speaker is designed to work with a receiver that has a subwoofer output channel along with multiple other speakers (2 or more regular speakers). Using it any other way is doable, but will probably NOT yield optimum results IMHO. On my set up, I can control subwoofer volume at the output (on my receiver), as well as a separate volume control on the subwoofer speaker itself. Depending on what I am playing (music, movies, etc.), I can make the bottom sound muted, or I can rock the house. This speaker is a steal at this price for the amount of bottom end I get in my home theater application, I especially like it to replicate low rumbles from action movies. . . FYI I have the "cutover" set at 150 hz for the sound getting pumped to this sub-woofer versus my other speakers.

I've been happy with wiring the second inputs separately on the big L and R speakers and using that for the low end, but I'm also not a major bass-head. I'd suggest trying that first and then if you feel you need to add a sub, do it.

Did you ever find an alternative to the BB2001? Funny, I just bought the im600 today, and it still had the slip in it for the BB2001. I would like to buy a subwoofer for it though, so let me know :) That goes for anybody reading this, too!

We have a sub woofer so I cannot say how it will sound without one. I can say the sound is great with the subwooferP.S. I just installed a new Bose Lifestyle V325 System that came with a new center channel speaker so I will be posting it for sale on Amazon soon.

This is a two channel or stereo amp. A sub woofer is designed to go with a surround system which has 5 or more channels. Like the other commenter said, your 50 watt speakers can risk damage if you turn the volume up to loud. Also, you could add another pair of similar speakers to balance it out. Each channel on this amp has outputs for 2 speakers, left and right. So you could run 4 speakers at once, 2 for the left channel and 2 for the right channel. 2 speakers rated at 50 watts for each channel should work nicely. This is somewhat like the setup I have. For each channel I have a large floor standing speaker (at least 75 watts) and a smaller speaker to reproduce the treble or higher end of the frequency. This is a two channel or stereo amp.
