I was just looking at these. I need to replace some Advent Baby 2's in the bedroom system whose surrounds finally gave up the ghost.

My problem is that I don't wanna spend much $$ and they can't be much more than 6" deep, which rules out most speakers. These look to cost about what a refoaming kit does and. for the bedroom TV (stereo only), might just fit the bill.

I'd go with these NHT Super Zero's, but they are a lot more money.

they gotta be worth a try at THAT price. i tried my minimus 7s as front satellites and they were good enough to live with if i had to. they usually live in the rear channels and that may be a good spot for those. they, like the minimi use spring clips as terminals, indicating their non state of the art status. but then they ARE only $32/pr!

I see that the Daytons made CNET's top ten list under a grand. Dang amazing for such cheapo speakers.
