Fernand

Really a great in-wall speaker. After just an afternoon of breaking them in, they're starting to open up a bit. The bass is there, even if a subwoofer is of course essential. Mids and highs are well-balanced. The sound is very clean even when listening in stereo, so for surround use it's excellent.

Vraiment une bonne enceinte encastrée, après déjà une après midi de rodage elles commencent à se libérer un peu, les basses sont là, même si un caisson est bien sur indispensable, médium et aigus bien équilibrés. Le son est très propre même en écoute stéréo alors pour une utilisation surround c'est excellent.

Used in HC as front and center speakers, the sound is excellent - very balanced, full-bodied and with very good bass extension. I highly recommend them (I also have the 1003 speakers in my Hi-Fi setup and frankly the 1002 speakers have nothing to be ashamed of in comparison).

Utilisées en HC en frontales et centrale, son excellent, très équilibré, très plein et descendant très bien dans les basses. Je recommande chaudement (je possède aussi les 1003 sur mon installation Hi-fi et franchement les 1002 n'ont pas à rougir).
