By no means am I an audiophile but just a regular guy who enjoys music. And at first the fact that they came in so many different designs and even custom prints and colors was very welcomed compared to the typical boring black speakers. I originally discovered these hidden gems from a post on CNET by Steve Guttenberg and now after listening them I totally agree with his review and the stereo imaging is amazing, and sound definitely seemed like it was projected beyond the location of the speakers. I've had them for a few days but the more I listen to them the more I love the clear sound and punchy bass. I've played a range of music genres with these Sommeliers and they sound amazing for classical and jazz music. I was also surprised that hip-hop and rock sounded good as well with tight punchy bass, but if you're total bass head there are probably more suitable speakers designed for that type of music. I also tried these in my living room to see as part of my home theatre but I think they sound best for a small to medium sized room for listening to music. If you're looking for some intriguingly interesting looking, well made, and awesome sounding speakers in the $300-$400 range definitely check the Sommeliers out! the property panel.
