Review Summary If you like the swappable speaker grilles--and can find the system at a discount--the Boston Acoustics MCS 130 is a worthy surround speaker package. The powerful Definitive Technology ProCinema 800 satellite/subwoofer package redefined our expectations of what a small surround speaker system can do. Thanks to its superbly matched satellites and subwoofer, Energy's Take Classic offers killer sound for a very affordable price. The new and affordable Klipsch HD Theater 500 package prioritizes sound quality over cosmetic glitz.
