Recently received a pair of the Encore B6 speakers for a 2 channel system. The speakers arrived in two well packed very stout boxes and thick foam protecting them. I personally love the look of these speakers, the ebony wrap, gloss black top and bottom caps, woofer and waveguide all blend very well. Would have liked magnetic grills removing the need for the plastic grill inserts cleaning up the front baffle.
My listening space is also my main living space so I have limitations on speaker placement, but did the best I could. Trying various degrees of toe-in I found the extreme-toe-in position to be the best. The left speaker is aligned one seating position to my right and opposite for the right speaker and provides a nice center image and tames the directed energy of the waveguides.
I tend to listen at low to medium volume and these provide a rich and well balanced presentation and play larger than their size even at the lower volume levels. I don?t feel the need to crank the volume to make them come alive.
I have them sitting atop a pair of Monolith 24?, 4 post speaker stands which are also nice. Price to performance is excellent and I'm extremely happy with my purchase. Would buy again.

I really enjoy the performance and value Encore B6 Offers. They have a pleasent balance of sound character: Highs are smooth.. Mids are clear ..and the bass is surprising. I believe it hard to beat at this price range and availability.

Still breaking these in. Great sound, room filling (28X34). Excellent deep bass, Saint-Saens Organ Symphony low pedal shakes the house. Great for all I listen too.

Fantastic sound at an unbelievable price. These bested Martin Logan Motion 40s and Arendal 1961in listening and measured tests. I was skeptical when I ordered them, but now feel you will totally not regret getting these for 2 channel or home theater. The crossover looks decent and there is fill material inside the cabinet, just the sides though, I may use some NoRez on the top and bottom of the cabinet. Very impressed!
