I bought this speaker system 3 years ago after a lot of research. I must have auditioned at least 6 different speaker brands, but nothing comes even close to the Aperions. The sound quality is awesome and so are the prices. They came individually packed in velvet bags and I think that was pretty neat. The speakers go great with my room decor, especially with the titanium stands.

I have hooked them up with a Denon AVR 3805 and believe me its a perfect combo.

My hats off to Aperion and I would recommend Aperion products to everybody.

I've never owned a true stereo until now. Since I am new to all of this, I went with the Intimus 422 Harmony HD and couldn't be happier. I got the larger subwoofer which sounds great, and I have the chance to upgrade the speakers within a year using the Full Price Trade-Up Program. This is perfect for a beginner like me. I get to fall in love with these speakers then trade up to new Aperion speakers as I become more of an audiophile. I highly recommend Aperion and their speakers!

“I, like most longtime audiophiles, am something of an audio snob. The idea that $200/pair speakers could be musically satisfying borders on heresy. But for an audiophile who wants to assemble a serious no-apologies desktop system, I can think of no other speakers at a similar price that will do a better job than the Aperion 422-LRs.”

"From product packaging to product features and performance, Aperion Audio has impressed me big time.  The product packaging and the accessories included truly show the company’s care for its customers.  The build quality and the finish of the Intimus 422 speaker system, together with the S-8 and S-10 subwoofers, are excellent and about as good as you can get for the price.  "Versatile" is probably the right word to describe this system.  With flexible placement and mounting options, and strong all-around performance, it was hard not to like this system.  The Intimus 422/S-8 speaker system is one of the best compact systems I have ever tried.  And if you are still not satisfied in the bass department, you can replace the S-8 subwoofer with the bigger S-10, which will give you lower bass extension and higher SPL capability.  But regardless whether you choose to match the 422 speaker system with the S-8 or the S-10 subwoofer, you can be sure that you've made the right decision that value-wise is hard to beat.  Highly recommended!"

"The Aperion Audio Intimus 422 system has a lot of attractive features to offer. It has the look of fine furniture, is compact, and has sonic qualities that will please both music and movie lovers alike. If you are in the market for a new home theater system, Aperion’s risk free 30 day trial, with shipping paid both ways, would be a great way to find out if the Intimus 422 5.1 system is a match for your aural gratification appetite.

The Aperion S-10's home-theater skills satisfied our lust for bombast; when playing the Constantine DVD, the evil spirits' demonic low-frequency effects quaked with visceral authority. The sub can fill even fairly large 400-plus-square-foot room with bass. Some subs are great with home theater but turn flabby on music. No problem here--the S-10 depicted jazz bassist Charles Mingus's nimble fingerings with crisp articulation.
