I listen to my games, music and watch tv with my front channels of my pioneer 7.2 receiver will they sound nearly as good as tower speakers?

The tower speaker may have larger speaker and that generally means better bass response. I use a subwoofer with mine and am quite pleased with the sound quality. The receivers ability to set speaker types will also be a factor. In a nutshell you ' hear them just fine but how much do you also want to feel the music and effects.

Grovetucky1, Yes, it will still drive your Pioneer speakers just make sure the crossover switch is set to Full Range.

That is a weird question. Most likely the answer would have more to do with my music tastes than how the speakers perform(most people don't listen to all types of music). The speakers sound great hooked up to my TV and any songs from movies or TV come through really clean. Hope that helps. If you must have an answer, Chiptune(best sounding music type) sounds great on them.

I have two on my deck and they sound good. I do get pretty good volume out of them and I don't have the greatest receiver. To be truthful with you, I hooked them up for a Labor Day party so they haven't been used much. I bought two pair but only one set is hooked up right now. My son does a lot of installing of speakers, TV's, and security systems and he thought they were a pretty good speaker for the money. I hope this helps.

Bear, These do not send sound straight at you so they normally would not be the best choice as your front speakers.Eric C

In a small room they will be fine. I have them in my living room and I have to crank my receiver a bit, but they sound good.

Just to let you know thes speakers are good but if you want loud and clear these wouldn't do it go with Pioneer infinity ect

Definitely, they will work and it will maximize the power of your receiver because you have 4 driver- and 3 way floorstanders, it will provide more detailed balance sound and better use two (2) put them at your front channel and you will experience a high quality speaker system.

If your receiver can handle 7.1 its just a simple matter of adding two additional speakers. I would recommend adding to floor speakers to your front channels and using the DefTech speakers as your center, side, and rear surrounds.I hope this helps.-Dex

I have a pioneer 75 watts pushing them and they sound okay. 165 watts would prob sound nice.

To be honest, the quality of sound you will get depends on the speakers and the amplifier you use for those speakers. I have some old technics 5 speaker system (2 towers, 2 surround and 1 front) connected to a Pioneer receiver and they sound great. This device essentially replaces the cable from your phone/tablet/ipod to the amplifier or receiver. It is like asking which speakers work best with an ipod... it really does not depend on the ipod!

depends. personally they do not throw enough power for the space I am in. But the space is huge & I AM using them as SECONDARY front speakers (for a total of 4) - so, they are a bit weak but if your space is small enough they should suffice for front speakers. Crisp sound, all "highs" but I'm sure your rear speakers and sub take care of the lows. Hope this helps.

Hey Adam, Since this is a very good receiver, I went with Sonance In-wall Theatre-Cinema speakers all around t Center and they sound great with this receiver. It's worth spending a few more dollars on higher end speakers. Best of luck!

The tower speakers sound amazing if you do not mind the size. You can start with the towers and later decide if you need a sub.

I personally didn't really care for the sound. I have a cheaper pair of pioneer 4-ways in the front of my '94 for ranger, and these in the back. I hard wired them to my aftermarket radio which if i can remember correctly was kicking about 60 watts each to them. Maybe that isn't enough for these speakers but I was definitely let down by these.
