Classic B65 Bookshelf Speakers, 6.5" Woofer & 1" Tweeter, Passive 2-Way Design, 60W RMS, for Music, TV & Home Audio Systems – Black

The good: Easily the best sounding bookshelf speakers I've heard in a long time that were not hugely expensive. I tested a set out running a Fosi Audio BT30D and found them to be much more lively than I had expected. Great sound for a budget friendly 2.1 channel home stereo system that provided room filling mids and highs as well as a decent amount of bass kick from the 6.5 woofer. Vocals and instruments were represented very well in my opinion. The bad: I purchased a set with every intention of placing them on their respective bookshelves to avoid the cost of buying or building speaker stands for them. Unfortunately, without the open air to breathe, the whole range of sound suffered, but especially those previously room filling mids and about 90% of bass response. So, if you have the space and the budget to make the proper accommodations for a set of these bookshelf speakers, they are fantastic and I would not hesitate to rely on them for the bulk of my music listening outside of the car. But without a more open environment to place the speakers where they seem to really shine, they are a pass.

One of my better buys for small room sound. Very happy with the range.

Update: I now currently own 6 sets of these. Cheap speakers that sound 10X's their price. Read my review below. I bought these alongside the Dayton AMT mini 8 prior to listening to these speakers as they were built. I modified the original tweeter hole to accept the AMT mini 8 and the clarity in the mids and highs are superb and do sound amazing for the price. Mind you these enclosures aren't winning any appearance awards but atleast with my tweeter modification goes, these speakers are a no brainer to buy and modify. I have these for my front and rear channels for my theater with absolutely zero complaints on clarity lows to highs. Obviously they're not hard hitting 6.5s but what the 6.5s do produce, it's clean. Would recommend for a 2.1 system or higher. I did make a mess of the glue application but it is only visual and is hidden by the cover.

I wanted to the most bang for your buck bookshelf speaker with bass that still sounded good without a subwoofer. Couldnt be happier. Definitely a good size for an apartment setup. The mids and highs sound just right to me, would probably recommend a sub if you want total perfection

Bought 2 pairs for my surround sound system. Was actually looking at another speaker type and kept running across mentions of these Dayton speakers. Mentioned that for the price point they were better than others that were two to three times the cost. The only complaint was that the looks were not that good. Just a box with a grill. The sound however is fantastic. These replaced some Bose 141 speakers that I had for some time. Watching a 4k copy of My Fair Lady, really made the soundtrack stand out. These are far superior to the Bose that I had used to have.

One speaker operates at desired volume and the other speaker operates at 1/2 that volume. I changed the wiring and the problem follows that speaker with the muted volume, thereby ruling out any problem with my receiver. I have emailed the manufacturer twice with no response and Amazon will not honor a return until the manufacturer agrees.

Not much bass, but vocals are very loud perfect pair with a subwoofer, great quality

Using these for surround and they sound good especially for the price!

Great 👍. Quality
