I picked these up to complete a project for a friend. He uses his garage for home brewing, as a cigar lounge, and as a showplace for his neon sign and railroadiana collections. Lit by an assortment of theater and concert lighting equipment. Great space, but the stereo sucked, LOL! I had to build this guy a modest, two channel rig! I set these in the garage, up on the shelves, against the wall, lamp-cord wires and Cambridge 540R. For a source I used my iPod with lossless files. BAM! These guys sounded terrific! Fun and pleasant sound, decent mids, crispy highs but not at all harsh. Much better than I expected. Not talking high-end or even mid-fi, but perfect for the application. Much better than the $50 I paid. I can't say anything about imaging since they are 7 feet up, but I like them in this set-up. I started listening with Coltrane's 'Blue Train'. Great sax and trombone sound! Next was Eiji Oue 'Suite from Candide' and I was impressed and happy. The kettle drum rolls were reasonable weighty. They also sounded pretty good for Beth Clayton 'Five Songs' on the same album. They handled rock pretty well too when I cranked up Epica's 'Divine Conspiracy'. Overall, great performance for the price.Read full review

Sony has the reputation it does because of a historical record of hi-if products. The SS series is no different in that it brings together solid components and manufacturing quality. The sound is rich and supported by a strong cabinet design.
