    Very good for small-middle rooms - 5 stars
    ONKYO SKS-HT240 Home Theater Speaker Kit Review
    If your room is designed for Hi-End sound (sound absorbers, special geometry etc) you probably will be disappointed. Otherwise you will find this item very good.
    Buy These Now - 5 stars
    ONKYO SKS-HT240 Home Theater Speaker Kit Review
    The sound experience is incredible. The subwoofer is incredibly powerful. Friend, Dolby 6.1 Lord of the Rings- ROTK makes this system sing. You really get great speakers for the money.

    They look nice too- the speakers don't have the "boxy" look of many other systems- rather, they are very sharp looking with mostly polished metal casing. (some plastic too) They are quite stylish and not bulky.

    Good low-end - 4 stars
    ONKYO SKS-HT240 Home Theater Speaker Kit Review
    Well built hardware. I was surprised with the bass output from the front surround speakers. I thought that my bass would eminate solely from the subwoofer, but that is not the case. I would note that the efficiency of these speakers leaves a little to be desired. I'm powering them with a Yamaha RX-V663 (95W x 7) and I find that some input sources require my Yamaha to really push itself to obtain a desired sound level.

    Good buy overall.

    Mega-awesome Receiver/Amplifier - 4 stars
    ONKYO SKS-HT240 Home Theater Speaker Kit Review
    Great speakers for the price. True, these speakers aren't going to shake-up your intestines nor break your window glass, but they do provide a sweet sound for an excellect price/performance ratio. The separate speaker stand seemed a bit pricey but, like other Onkyo gear, it's all well built and integrates very well like "hand in glove." For my taste, I've cranked up the sub-woofer a bit and love it - IMHO, definitely the best part of the package.
    An excellent set of speakers for the price. Top notch. - 5 stars
    ONKYO SKS-HT240 Home Theater Speaker Kit Review
    Do NOT buy 1-2 year extended warranties with these speakers, they already come with 2 year warranties. An incredible kit.

    My Onkyo HT-240 speakers arrived today, and i was like a kid in a candy shop. When putting together my entertainment center, I wanted speakers that would take advantage of my 1080p samsung 46 inch tv, plus my playstation 3. So, video was ready, I just needed sound.

    I initially was going to go for basic speakers/tuner, but after reading up on the various models, decided to spend the extra money for a nice Onkyo tuner and theater speaker kit.

    The first thing I noticed right off the bat was that the speakers came in one HUGE box. You need to be around to sign for these people, its not something any company is going to drop off on your porch if you aren't home. After opening the box, I noticed right off the speakers were packaged like a tank. Quality packaging. The bundle was insulated by foam siding all around, and banded together into one big foam package. Nice and tight to take any abuse during shipping.

    I also have to agree with many other reviewers. The cable speakers that come with the Kit are ok, but you really want to spend a little extra and grab upgraded replacement cables/wire. But only do this after you have everything up and running just in case you are satisfied with the sound. The speakers were also larger than I expected. The small ones a little over a foot high, the mediums about 1 1/2 foot high or so. 4-5 inches wide. Solid.

    This is a 6.1 speaker system so match your speakers to your receiver for best compatability. The Center speaker sadly only comes with a cheap plastic base holder, doesn't even attach. The 2 front speakers come with great solid metal bases which do attach. The center one should have came with something decent. Oh well. The smaller surround speakers (3) have no bases. The subwoofer is HUGE. Its a fine piece of machinery. Enjoy it.

    After hooking everything up and sticking everything where it goes, I sat back and enjoyed some of my favorite DVD's. Yeaaaaaaa.

    Enjoy your speaker Kit. For only 3-400 dollars you won't find a better set of speakers period. All the hype is worth it, and the speakers are worth it. Why don't you have them yet!
