The front left and right speakers and center channel include dual 4" woofers and a 1" tweeter for a broad, powerful front soundstage, and the compact surround speakers handle ambient sounds and directional special effects with amazing ease.


Center and Front Speakers: Each speaker has two 4" paper cone woofers with treated cloth surrounds and a 1" poly balanced-dome tweeter. The rear-mounted spring clip terminals on each speaker will accept bare wire and pin connectors. Each enclosure is covered by a removable black cloth grille. Note: The manual states the speakers include holes for wall mounting. The front and center speakers do not have mounting holes.

Rear Speakers: Each rear speaker has a 4" paper cone woofer with a treated cloth surround and a 1" poly balanced-dome tweeter . The rear-mounted spring clip terminals on each speaker will accept bare wire and pin connectors. Each enclosure is covered by a removable black cloth grille.

Rear Speaker Mounting: Each rear speaker has a metal bracket with a keyhole slot on the back that allows the speaker to be wall mounted. If you do not wish to mount the rear speakers on the wall, you can place them on any flat surface.

Video-Shielding: The center speaker and front speakers are video-shielded.

FWIW, I listened to this set (or a very similar one) at BJ's wholesale club, where it was matched with a Kenwood sub and receiver and being sold as an all-in-one system. I was not terribly impressed by the sound as the highs seemed very subdued, almost non-existent; reminded me of cheap compact systems from the 1970s. However, part of this could have been due to the signal source; all that was available for listening was FM radio.

It's $50. What do you expect?
 
Why would you try to gauge a speaker's performance in a HUGE open space like a wholesale club, either?

The accoustics are not exactly optimal, to say the least.
