Yep, here is the link http://electronics.cnet.com/electronics/0-6342366-8-9580598-2.html?tag=st.cn.1.t5.6342366-8-9580598-2

Well, not like they are the audio athority, but it is nice to see Klipsch is getting some press in a field that is not all audio. A lot of people see cnet.com, so it is good for Klipsch.

Also, I was hoping BOSE wouldn't have taken 1st place!!!

Here is a quote:

"We've heard dozens of home-theater speaker systems, but we were taken aback by Klipsch's Synergy System 6 package because it sounds like a much bigger and more expensive system. And it's not just good for blasting through effects-laden DVDs. No sir--this flexible system works its magic on CDs with equal verve."

CNET Rating: 4 out of 10

The good: Compact; inexpensive.

The bad: Boxy sound; beamy highs.

The bottom line: This speaker system's sound doesn't measure up to the competition.

The Quintet MicroSystem is the smallest and least expensive home theater speaker system made by Klipsch, a company that made its name by bringing horn-loaded loudspeakers into the home back in 1946. The driver in a horn-loaded speaker is mounted into what looks something like the bell of a trumpet. This horn directs the sound toward the listener. The design has been used in cinema loudspeakers since the appearance of talkies. For the Quintet, Klipsch designed the smallest horn tweeter it has ever made. But unfortunately, pedigree notwithstanding, this microsized system did not impress us.

Don't you love the new Bulletin Boards HTML abilities?! That is so awesome! Interesting... look at how much the owners love it, 96%! LoL! Just goes to show that reviews don't always mean anything at'tall, kinda like Stereophile hehe. BTW, I edited this and it worked
