They Serve My Purpose

I simply wanted to receive better sound from my Mitsubishi DLP HDTV. (These sets provide excellent video with not so great audio.) I paired the Sony SS-B3000 speakers with an equally inexpensive Sherwood receiver and made my humble wish come true.

Good speakers for the money

I bought these for $85 with free shipping from Amazon. For that price, they are truly hard to beat. They aren't a flashy looking set of speakers but they are classy enough. The sound is crisp and there is a surprising amount of bass response. If you're looking for heavy deep bass it is obviously not going to be there in a 'bookshelf' speaker, but these hit the higher bass ranges very cleanly.

I have them in a 5.1 with Sony ss-f6000 floorstanding speakers and a ss-cn5000 center channel and they sound great. Better than any theater in a box speaker you could ever buy.

one fith the size but equal

The 6' high by 2' wide Magnepan electrostatice speakers were the "B" speakers and were a bit too big for the back of the living room. But they were pretty nice. When I saw the price for these Sony bookshelf speakers I thought that "what the heck, if they are no good I can give them to someone or maybe bring them to my office." I hooked them up and put them under the piano so they are out of sight, but not out of hearing. They are amazingly good and clear with almost no loss of clarity from the monsters! I recommend them for anyone wanting a good second set of speakers.

A lot of speaker for not a lot of money

HELP!!! all of a sudden I needed new speakers, my wireless speakers were caput!! Now these would not be the type of speakers I would use in my Home Theater,however I wanted something that would sound decent for am-fm radio. The Sony SS-B3000 fit the bill. You'll be happy with the value of these speakers. "I know I am. G.R. Hbg

Ok for $100, but $200 polk TSi100 blow these away

As the title says, ok for $100, but I set up some $200 Polk TSi100 bookshelf speakers next to them and they blew them away--Polks had way better sound, bass (even though Polks are much smaller) and stereo imaging (way better). If you simply can't spend more than $100 then Sonys aren't terrible, but again, for $200, the Polks are WAY better.
