Will keep them forever ... using one pair as outdoor speakers, and one set as my studio monitors. They're versatile, and great sounding!! Might upgrade my studio monitors at some point, but they've been doing great so far!
Sound
Extremely Clear .. no distortion
Features
Wall mount is handy ... that's about all it's got!

Had a pair live outside through rain, snow, etc .... still sound like new
