What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Pioneer SP-FS51-LR Floorstanding Loudspeakers (Black, Pair)

These are some really good speakers for a small to medium size room. Good mids, highs are clear but a little 'twangy'.
Nice slim size. Very balanced, smooth sound with vinyl, streaming and CD.
For the price and size excellent sounding speakers.
They are a little smaller in size than I thought they would be. To my surprise, these are amazing.
They are really bulky and clunky to someone who is used to smaller sleek looking speakers and some people may find this a turn off.

I didn't think they would be THIS good when I received them because they are a little smaller in size than I thought they would be. To my surprise, these are amazing.
It is a great value speaker. I am very pleased with its performance and its quality. Just be aware or the large size.
The towers are well made and in fact are surprisingly heavy.
These speakers are of a descent size and weight so if space is an issue you may want to go a different route.
They are fairly large, but seem to blend in well in our living room making them almost unobtrusive if it weren't for the beautiful music coming from them.

What customers say about "Audio"

Pioneer SP-FS51-LR Floorstanding Loudspeakers (Black, Pair)

The bass is is fantastic for the 5-1/4-inch woofer size, it packs a punch! These speakers are designed with "height" in mind.
They have a nice mid and lower range, which gives them a full sound.
They have a good bass that goes down to the right range, which is the range where your subwoofer pickups up on.
The only drawback that I saw in them was their relatively low sensitivity, and somewhat recessed mid range.
Speakers sound terrible and completely disappointed all around with purchase.

I have the complete set. Love them! Power and clarity at all levels and they look great!
Paired these with 2 larger speakers and 2 powered subs. A perfect combo
I absolutely love these speakers. The bass has that deep, quality bass that you can only get with a full sized speaker without being at all boomy or over powering (I have these connected to my Onkyo without a subwoofer, which really isn't needed).
The rest of the frequency spectrum has a really good, natural sound to it. I can listen to these speakers all night without getting exhausted as I would with cheaper, less naturally sounding speakers.
Ok sounding for the price. Would pay more for better sound
I compared this speaker and the Onkyo SKF-4800, i found the onkyo speakers to have more details in the highs. mids sound good in both speakers, a bit bright in the onkyo but nothing harsh.

What customers say about "Features"

Pioneer SP-FS51-LR Floorstanding Loudspeakers (Black, Pair)

They sound fantastic and look nice too! Great design and quality construction. I am very impressed with these speakers.
The sound is crisp and they look great. Highly recommended for the value.
These speakers are heavy and solid. They have a simple build with few components and there isn't anything to cause rattles.
They sound really good with music and movies, something not all not all speakers do.
The construction is solid wood. The sound is superb. Good size for the living room. Very understated styling. Highly recommend.

Towers and center channel look great with grills off
I like that you can take the grills off, as I'd rather see the drivers.
The cabinet is well made, the terminals of high quality.
Speaker grills have partially turned purple, even in a room with blackout curtains and seldom direct sunlight.
Veneer is very cheap quality, already peeling in the corners after 9 months of delicate handling.
