These are great speakers. I listen to a wide range of music and, so far, everything sounds wonderful. They are sturdy enough that they probably should not be placed on an inexpensive bookshelf.

I am using them as bookshelf speakers I have it connected to a Pioneer 100watts receiver, cerwing vega center speaker and a cerwing vega subwoofer. Sounds amazing more than enough, I play games through PS3, play my iphone through airport express, and watch tv through cable tv.

They really are not designed to be placed in a bookshelf, in my mind I would use the L810 for a bookshelf placement and I think you would be much more happy with the end result (including the price difference).

These are great speakers. I have 4 and use them as surround and surround back. Bought $349.99/pair couple of months ago.

They're overkill for sides. That being said, I have 4 of them, fronts and sides. Work great. Very very clear, great sound. Slick wall mount as well. If you're setting them on a shelf be aware that they could, in theory, get knocked over as they're only 5" deep.

I use these for my rear speakers: Monoprice Satellite Speaker Floor Stand (Set of 2), BlackThey aren't the best, but they are adequate. I would look for a stand with a flat base for the speakers to rest on. If you're concerned about the speakers falling off the stands, some double sided tape should ease your mind.Hope this helps!

For 2.0 the towers are 3 way speakers so they will work best. For 2.1 you can get away with the bookshelf speakers because u have a sub. The bookshelf still do produce a good low

they are big and you dont hang them. I use mine for rear surrounds because I dont have the equalizer they came with originally. they need a wall to reflect off. I just got a couple of cool tables at the thrift store and aimed so the 9 speaker array points and reflects off a wall. perfect surround rear speakers. I have JBL L100's for the front left right and a real nice vintage B&W; Center speaker with a old school Velodyne sub. King Kong never roared so good. I like those old vintage speakers. Head room for days

You could use them as fronts, however the speakers design is for dipole rear surrounds meaning they radiate their sound from the sides of the speaker cabinet and NOT from the front. You most likely would not be pleased using them as fronts. Definitive offers better solutions for fronts.

I have a pair of Bose 301 book shelf speakers on mine, which works very well. Hope this helps.

If you are using them for your rear speakers, they will be just fine with your system. We have about same set up and they work very nice.

The bracket has two thumb screws that attach to small holes on the sides of the speaker. You do not have to attach the bracket if you are not mounting them to a wall or other object. They will work fine as bookshelf speakers, they sound great.

Go to amazon and search for bookshelf speakers. I have a set of Pioneer SP-BS22-LR Andrew Jones Designed Bookshelf Loudspeakers. I use the speaker mounts in my media room. I like them very much and would buy them again.

Tracy,I looked at the speakers on Amazon and there is not a picture showing their back side. If the backs have a mounting bracket such as for hanging on a wall, these stands should work. I have had my Sanus Systems stands two years and I still love them.

Personally, I simply bought little square shelves and strong brackets at Lowe's and mounted them to my walls (in the beams, not just drywall....I'm not stupid). As long as the brackets are centered and strong enough, they work fine. The shelves I bought actually fit the speakers perfectly, allowing me to angle the front ones. The side speakers fit with a little bit of room on each side so the shelf is just about as wide as the speaker, so it fits nice. The shelves I bought weren't for the brackets I bought, but you can drill a couple of holes in them and make 'em fit. :)

yes, one of my bookshelf speakers is lain on its side and one is upright and i've had no problems or compromise in sound or performance

No they will not . I had to make my own boxes .but still not happy just not big enough room for any kind of nice boxes for the speaker to sound good no boom just a boo! .better off getting custom made boxes from stereo store if you want it to sound good I got a estimate from a local place they said 200 bucks they will take seat out measure & then build a good quality box for whatever size speaker you want. Sorry for the bad news.

Yeah, these are very large bookshelf speakers. You'd probably have to custom make stands that are sturdy enough for them.

I'm using them as front stereo speakers with a subwoofer in my living room. I use them for stereo music and we use them when watching movies. They should be plenty loud. You'll have to find the right balance with them if you are using a center channel. Otherwise they will work fine. I have these and an 8 inch Yamaha subwoofer and it fills the room with sound during music and movies.

No sir, they are for book shelves or stands. Believe me, I bought a Definitive Technology wall speakers, at more than three times the price and only the tweeter section is better.

I believe these were meant for surface areas such as you mentioned. They are designed to decouple your speakers so if your stands are sturdy it may work fine but I would see little to no benefit as your stands could already be doing this. I had a desk top use for mine and they performed well in my case. Hope this opinion helps.
