Do these have a bass port like the B6? Because the picture makes these look like they are sealed with no port.

Which is the higher tier speaker? The Encore series, or the Audition series? And what is the difference? Is it just that the Encores are sealed, while the Auditions are ported?

Great little speaker
This speaker is great value for the money especially on sale. A little thin in the midrange but a decent amount of bass and clarity in the highs.

$49.99 right now!! holy sh.. buy these now if...
They're $49.99 right now each!!
I Would buy a pair if you're in a similar situation as me.
I Go them a while back at $80+ something(Each)
- I got a pair to use as surround speakers, and they fit the job, They're Sealed I Can put them closer to the wall without issue, I urge you to check out the (current) one and only review on amazon search "Encore B5 monolith" - with filter: Availability Include Out of Stock. Reviewer -K-
There's a lot of info in / on there.
Anyways get these now at $49.99
good deal, and great as surrounds.
If you want direct-facing / Monopole - and sealed design for a low price and still be quality, these are the ones.
----
Other notes:
* Sealed Design.
* Screws on woofers do not show, they are covered.
* Binding Posts are quality, better than the current pics.
* 4 ohm / Impedance - make sure your gear is capable + compatiblle.
* Has gloss-like shine on top and bottom, Finger prints, but not incredibly bad.
* Comes with small pads (available)-I Don't use.
* This Encore I Think is higher tier or better quality than the Audition series speaker.
* if I remember, the speakers come in a cloth bag thing.
Good Luck

A Hidden Gem!
While the specs describe this as just another small bass reflex speaker, the picture clearly shows there is no vent. These are quite impressive. The bass is well defined with a cleaner sound than many bass reflex speakers. The overall sound seems evenly reproduced without a "shouty" midrange, and the upper end is articulate without the sizzle I detest. Imaging is very respectable especially when cost is factored in. Despite their lower efficiency rating the mate well with a 50 watt amp producing more than enough volume for smaller listening environments. With a couple hundred watts of power on tap and subwoofers they scale right up to the task for larger rooms. Again, even in larger rooms the imaging is better than I ever imagined from such small affordable speaker pair. If you can't tell, I'm surprisingly pleased with these little gems. Enough so, I wish I had more applications for them so I could buy more!Write your review here. It must be at least 10 characters long.
