I've had this system for about 3 months and it has totally changed my cinema experience. I'm hearing sounds I've never heard before - and I used to have a high end 6 piece Infinity system. The sound is extremely crisp and powerful. I tested Dreamgirls, 300, and Braveheart on the speakers. I've probably watched Braveheart 10 times, but never like this. The sounds of the swords gave me chills and combat scenes made me duck - it's amazing. Watching Dreamgirls felt like front row tickets to a concert, the pitch range is incredible

You won't regret your purchase, it's the best value I've enjoyed from my theater system. You can turn it up extremely loud and not lose the tight, sharp sound. The level of quality is far above anything I've experienced before. Just a great, great product.

I actually have a set of Intimus 522D speakers (4), an Intimus S-10" sub-woofer, and an Intimus Vertical Array Center Speaker that I purchased in fall 2004. They have upgraded the system evidently to the 532 series. My outfit is simply amazing for the price I paid! The cabinetry is very high quality (cherry), they are SOLID, not some cheap production model. The sound is always sharp, always clear, either in surround or when just using the two main speakers for pure music. Its a great matched outfit. It wont blow you away in a big gymnasium, but set it up properly in a small to medium setting and you cant beat it! And then toss in friendly, knowledgeable personnel - I live in Vermont and actually visited the retail store outside Portland when I was out on business and found out first hand what I had been reading in the on-line reviews. Convinced me! I can only imagine the next generation is equally as impressive! I highly recommend them!

I am probably like most of the new private home theatre families who want a little bit more than a home theatre in a box, but don't want to spend thousands of dollars on a system. I found Aperion through lots of research for the best buy for my money. First, the speakers make my home theatre come alive; I don't know how I went this long without them. They look gorgeous and really fill the room with sound. The customer service was great, but even better than that was the fast delivery and incredible packaging of each individual speakers. They were each wrapped liked precious babies. Overall, I am incredibly happy; now I can't ever go back.

You wouldnt believe that you can get speakers of this quality for this price. I have had mine for 6 months and am very happy with this purchase. Don't even hesitate to get these puppies.

“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.”
