Made my own speakers out of ceiling tiles, you can find the video on YouTube. They sound incredible! For the money they can't be beat.

Like others, super easy to stick to a piece of pink foam insulation, and create a pretty amazing setup provided you have a subwoofer. I've dropped a few jaws when I fire these things up. I've spent 0 effort on finishing them. My panels are 2 ft x 3 ft, used the 1/3 rule. They are biased a bit high on treble with no noticeable sibilance. They blend into any room. They handle a reasonable amount of power. They image well, and do not seem to suffer too much from a limited sweet spot. If your on a budget and want some cool hi-fi speakers, give these a shot. Will they beat a $2000 set of martin Logan's? No. But you can have these and about $1900 of beer and barely tell the difference. My panels do need a fair amount of room though.
