The guy is a genius when it comes to speakers, and they’re legit. Every once in a while, he drops a killer limited run. Years ago, he released these wooden 5.1 setups that still absolutely crush it in terms of power, quality, and price. These ones are new, so I’m assuming they’ve leveled up... they’ve got an LCD and controls right on the sub, plus you get a remote. Honestly, I bet the built-in drivers deliver just as good a soundstage as the old models. As for raw power? A 100W RMS sub paired with 20W RMS on the other channels can easily push 80dB—enough to make your neighbors seriously regret living next to you.
Regarding those wooden 2.0s at 60W, I'm pretty sure I posted the links in the "Best Buy" megathread, so go dig through it... They're solid, punchy speakers with a headphone jack and an MP3 input. Even without a dedicated sub, the bass is handled really well. It’s not that aggressive, bone-shaking bass, though; it’s more of a "smooth" bass, which might annoy some of those hardcore audiophile types.
