Uncle Sam finally paid me some back tax money owed to me for a longgggg time so I have a little extra $$$ kicking around and looking around I decided I needed to do something about my front and rear center channels.
As much as I like the sound of the EPI's I refoamed that I am using I just can't take looking at them anymore.
#1 They aren't black so they don't match very well especially the ones sitting on the HDTV.
#2 The grills if I use them are brown, not matching once again and just plain ugly, and without the grills the ones sitting on the HDTV are distracting.
#3 Size, the ones on the racks are taking up too much space pretty much making the top shelf useless and I am afraid the ones on top of the HDTV are too heavy perhaps bowing the top of the TV, I see no such bow but it is making me paranoid
So I wanted some smaller bookshelves that were black with black grills but with a big sound to use for front and rear centers. Originally I wanted Paradigm Titans for the front and Atoms for the rear well at $219 and $189 a pair respectively when I started thinking about it I really didn't want to spend that much cash. I checked ebay and saw nothing that I wasn't gonna have to wait around to win an auction for. And of course the money is burning a hole in my pocket Well I decided to go with these:

I got a pair of black level three "B" stock (blemishes on cabinet or some such, but with all warranties and 30 day return policy) for $139 for front centers and a black pair of these:

at $139 for rear centers.
With only $15 shipping for both pairs it seems like a good deal, all the reviews I read seemed good and if I don't like them I can ship them back within 30 days for a full refund. Anyone heard of these?
