These speakers are relatively pricey for their small size (about 2.5 pounds each and about 5 inches tall) but are powerfull (125 watts) and, hence, can output quite a bit of sound. More importantly, they produce a very wide range of sounds at very high quality. From low drone to high pitch the sound is great.
In addition to their small size they also come with wall brackets that permit easy mounting. Plus, underneath, they have a standard screw mount (like most decent cameras)that permits them to be mounted on to very flexible ball based wall mounts such as the OmniMount 10.0 Black Wall or Ceiling Mount (Ea) Stainless Steel Speaker Mount. This particular mount is highly recommended for this pair of speakers as it permits perfect flexibility not only with respect to wall mounting but in permitting the user to set a very wide range of directions for their speakers.
Due to their small dimensions, weight and high quality sound output, they are ideal for use as wall mounted speakers, especially front high left/right speakers (their ability to accurately reproduce both low and high drones and pitches make them especially useful in this role).

Great Sounding speakers for such a small size. I recently went from a 5.1 to a 7.1 system and added these speakers as the rear channels. I am now thinking about replacing my Polk box front speakers with them as well. The reason I didn't give this product a 5 star review was because I have a mixed polk speaker system and do not have these speakers in front and back so I might not get the full effect. In any case I am happy with the purchase and crutchfield was great with the delivery.
