I added the DV52Si speakers to my 5.1 system as rear surround speakers. I was initially worried that the plastic enclosure would affect the overall sound quality and that they would not match the sound coming from my speakers in wooden enclosures. It turns out I worried in vain. These speakers sound perfectly natural, even with complex musical soundtracks. They also look very attractive mounted on my back wall. They sport a very unique shape that satisfies my aesthetic expectations. I will probably have these little guys for a while.

I've been buying BIC products since the mid 90's, and I've always found them to be high on the 'bang for the buck' meter. I've owned JBL, Klipsch, and a few others in the past, but I keep going back to BIC.
These speakers are really quite nice. First of all, although the product listing doesn't specify it too well, these are sold in pairs. Each speaker weighs a little less than 6 pounds, which is about average for their size.
They come with the cloth grilles already installed, but there are metal screens for those who want to use these speakers outdoors. I bought 2 pairs, for use as the front and rear channels in a 5.1 setup.
Although they have a pretty wide range, I still set my receiver to 'small' for speaker size, but I was able to set the crossover at 80Hz, which is pretty good for satellite sized speakers, I think. The Klipsch satellites I was using before I bought these were set at 150, and that was probably still a bit of wishful thinking.
I was fairly pleased with the sound they produced, it was very full and warm. With the receiver's volume at its loudest 'comfortable' listening level, there was no sign of distortion of any kind. They just did a great job, and really added a lot to our home theater experience.
Before buying these, I did a LOT of research, went to my local A/V store and auditioned several competing brands (Klipsch, Energy, Polk), and couldn't find a compelling reason to spend more money on another brand, when the BIC were just as good as I expected them to be.
I ended up ordering the DV52CLR center channel speaker to replace my 14 year old BIC center speaker, and at some point I'll buy one of their newer subs to replace the 10 year old BIC 10" model I currently use.
I wish there were more pictures of the backs of these speakers out there, because you have to really see it to appreciate it. They have an angled back that makes them absolutely perfect for cieling or corner mounting. They include drilling templates and instructions for a variety of mounting options, and since they're relatively light-weight, it doesn't take a whole lot to anchor them securely.
My receiver can do 7.1, and I'm already planning to pick up another pair of these in a month or so to finish out the set. I don't hesitate to recommend them.
Yes, there are better sounding small-format speakers out there, but they don't really come close in terms of price versus performance. I was prepared to pay per speaker what I ended up paying for a PAIR.
