Opinion:

I wanted to improve the sound of my bedroom Panasonic LCD TV, so I started to look into several solutions like Audioengine A2, A5+, and many others micro systems or active speakers. Then I found that Denon released this micro system only two weeks ago as a replacement of the Denon DM38S (Award winning for two years). So with no regrets I placed the order via Amazon (only one was in stock) and I got it yesterday. No words to describe how amazing this little micro system sounds. I have my DirecTV HD DVR and an Apple TV hooked up to my TV via HDMI, so just an optical cable from my TV into the Denon DM39S do the job. Did I say how Awesome this little thing sounds??? 100% recommended!!!

PSW10 Opinion:

This is an excellent inexpensive subwoofer. I got it for free when I purchased my Rti-12's from Frys Electronics. Even though it's only a 50 watt sub, it hits surprisingly hard and is a great low-cost addition to a home theater system. It will add a lot to your movies. It's a little bit muddy sounding when it comes to music, but to be fair I'm comparing this to how my PSW-1000 sounds. I've had this sub for about a year and it works great, if you need some extra bass for your home theater system and have a tight budget, pick this one up. It's very good for a smaller room. It gets five stars because it significantly outperforms the 200$ price tag.

 Opinion:

I bought these speakers in 1995, which makes them (and me) really old to date. I've had audiofile friends tell me how nice, and how expensive their speakers they have are. I've seen a lot of fancy looking speakers, and all the top brands. Nothing is a better workhorse, has clearer sound, and deeper bass, than these. I have hammered these babies for years, and they still sound great. I've hauled em' from Ohio, to Oregon, and now to North Carolina. People scoff when they see them now. Beat up cabinets and the covers are not too pretty. But when I light em' up with my Onkyo, they sing, and people can't believe the sound. 15" subs just effing pound. Thats all there is to it. The tweets, and mids sound great, at high and low volume. Superb sensitivity, makes every watt count. Some people say they sound to bass heavy. To those people, I say kiss my ass. Without hopefully sounding too corny, I can honestly say, these speakers have been a part of my life. A lotta fond memories. This is my first review on Amazon I have ever written, and I can't say enough about the love I feel for these speakers. If you buy them, and your buddy comes over and tells you his thousand dollar 'enter brand name here' speakers sound better, it's because he's jealous. Trust me, I've been dealing with it for years...
