Incredible Clarity at a Reasonable Price.
Initial Impression. Arrived this afternoon and I began the unpacking. Wow! The protection from double boxing and copious amounts of foam was impressive. The finish of the wood style is simply beautiful, very good quality. I used 12 gauge wire and banana plugs to hook them up and switched them on. My Pioneer receiver has an A/B switch and I have some quality Micca Bookshelf speakers in the A position. So switching to B and the Daytons was a pleasant experience with a great Dave Brubeck “Time Out” LP. The bass was a a little too pronounced so I backed it off. I’m both amazed and happy with how clear and bright they sound. The instruction manual says it may take 30+ hours to break everything in. If the result is better than my first impression, I’m gonna charge people admission to listen to my system!! If anything changes + or – I’ll report again. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and get some!

Definitely worth a listen
They were well packaged with no damage. I hooked them up to a Sony ES receiver and played them for about 4 1/2 hours. The longer I played them the better they sounded. For the money so far I am well pleased. I bought them for a gift for someone who has never had anything nice for audio. I’m sure they will love them.

Excellent sound and affordable!
These were part of a package deal I purchased with the Dayton Audio HTA100 and paired with that amp, I’m totally pleased with their sound quality, clarity, and bass response. The build quality is also excellent. The ONLY thing I would change is the light gray grills, I would have preferred charcoal or black. I run them without the grills but you may not want to do that if you have curious kids! If you’re thinking about a sonically impressive set of speakers that just happen to be affordable, you found them.

Very nice!
I didn’t feel compelled to write a review on these right away. First impression was “Gee these are pretty good for the money.” I took another reviewers advice and waited until they were broken in before I commented on them. These are on a simple 2 channel set up, powered by an Onkyo 8020 receiver. These speakers seem a little power hungry but the 50 wpc seems to be plenty of power. I played these speakers for about 40 hours over the course of 5 days using a clean fm station. The results are remarkable. These things really opened up. They really are amazing for the price. I wanted something affordable for my man cave and these are way way above my expectations. streaming off my wiim mini sounds amazingly good.

Dayton Audio is awesome!
Dayton Audio is a best kept secret! Many “name brands” are now made in China – so might as well buy an off-brand if you can call it that. Dayton Audio is very well made, blows away the big names. Very good speakers/components!

Great for the price
Classic T65 Floor-Standing Tower Speaker Pair BlackAs an serious music listener and audiophile for over 60 years I have been enjoying the T65 speakers from Parts Express/Dayton Audio.We have scaled our audio system at home to just stereo, and from monolithic speakers such as the Definitive Audio BP2000 to the T65.Prior I purchased the T652 Air which were very shrill and crackly. I tried to modify with a tweeter control and more internal dampening and still did not like the overall sound. A neighbor was happy to get those for free.These are fine. Maybe not as good as the Def Techs or even our old Magnapan MMG’s, but are GOOD, especially at $200 from Amazon with delivery.We have these on a 6″ MDF speaker stands each loaded with about 12 lbs of BB shot to stabilize the speakers. The speakers are very light, almost top heavy and do not stand well on carpet.Enjoy!

Good value for the money
I have been building a little system for my record player. I have had many high end speakers over the years, Cerwins, Infinity, Polk etc. But, Im building this system on a budgetâ¦and honestly was thinking I wouldnât get much for $200 a pair, and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and sound. The bass response is definitely fighting above itâs weight, in other words they thump pretty good for 6â. Do they sound as good as my VS80 Cerwins on my main system? Noâ¦but those were 2 bills a piece 30 years ago. I coupled them with 2 CV bookshelf speakers, and it sounds great when Iâm spinning vinyl and even better on bluetooth . I have a graphic equalizer on the way and that will allow me to dial the system in completely. I donât think you can beat these speakers for the money. They came in a big box with plenty of protection. I used banana clips on the speaker wires, super easy to hook/unhook. Overall, are they audiophile worty? â¦of course not, but I am super happy with the value for the money

A bargain for the sound produced. 5 stars for value.
I paired these with Rockville 10 inch sub for an old school, 2 channel boomer and I am blown away at the sound for the price. If you drive these real hard they distort but, not before most people would be at an uncomfortable listening level. I have them about 12 ft apart, 2ft or more from the wall, sub in the middle. This setup sounds better at 75% volume than my friend’s much more sophisticated speakers. These look good and don’t take up much space. Once these have been out longer there will be crossover and driver upgrades to make them even better.
