SWEET Towers![]()
I just puchased a pair of these, and I’m amazed by the clarity of the sound. The DO have great bass - turn em up, and it feels like you are being slapped in the chest. The mids are really good to, very round and well defined. And the highs are exellent, crystal clear and not harsh at all. Very well constucted - very solid, I imagine I’ll get a lifetime of use out of these babies.
Great for a strong range of bass output.![]()
Cerwin Vega is known for it’s refinement of bass in speaker sets, but I must say that the pair of these that I own are pretty good at mids and even good with the highs as well. I don’t know much about speaker design but I am certain that I am getting the fullness of bass from these speakers with my music system. I run my source signal from my PC out of the sound card using a cord with a jack for the sound card that on the other end becomes RCA jacks into the amplifier (which is an Onkyo A-9555). I am running the amp in A/B mode to run four speakers. I bought a pair of Klipsch F2 speakers recently, but the depth of bass I desired was clearly going to come from the bigger woofer of the Cerwin Vegas. Some people think all you need to do is add a subwoofer, but I disagree with that notion. Subs are good for deep driving bass punches but serve very little in developing bass intricacies. But a large regular woofer does very well in this niche property of a music system, and these come with a nice 12 inch woofer. I get a nice punch, but I also get great bass definition and sound. For the depth of a potent range of bass level music you need the woofer to do such a job.
That’s why I bought these and I’ve been served very well by them.
I cannot commend Cerwin Vega enough for sticking to their guns on ideas for speaker design. A great speaker setup cannot be overlooked for your music system. Give these a strong consideration.

I purchased two speakers along with a yamaha receiver and they sound great. I am listening to them right now and the music is clear, soft and nice base.
