Streem Customer Reviews
[updated: May 8, 2008]

We realize that to buy home theater speakers online can be a risky thing: you can't listen to them, you can't touch them and you can't see them with your own eyes. Couple this fact with the vast number of companies that want you to choose their speakers and it leaves many consumers scratching their heads in confusion. So, if you choose Streem how do you know you are making the right choice?

Our customers reviews on our products are, in many cases, the deciding factor when a new customer chooses Streem for their home audio theater. Our sincerest thanks go out to our customers who have decided to share their Streem experience with the world and we hope that if you choose Streem you will share your thoughts as well.

Following are excerpts of some of the many emails we have received from happy and, dare we say, elated Streem customers:




"I've owned or built nearly 30 loudspeaker systems, and listened to several hundred over a period of more than 50 years. To replace a set of exceptional near-field monitors, I ordered the FS-808B package and received it a week later in perfect condition. They are exceptionally clear and revealing. Individual voices are distinct in choral groups. Drumheads are clear in massed orchestra. Strings are distinct from their associated boxes (I can hear the "air" between them as with live instruments). Violins don't sound alike or like cheap instruments from a mass-market music store. Vivaldi is a pleasure to listen to. As are Boccherini, Mozart, jazz, pop, and other sources. Satellite radio and TV are great.

The speakers are excellent in stereo or home theater. The sound of the original acoustic space seems to be present. And the relative balance among instruments in concert is maintained at different volume levels ... (something very disturbing to me about many other speakers ... performance changes at different volume levels as they load the enclosure). Before I ordered these speakers, I auditioned Monitor 6s, Vienna Acoustics, Kef, B&W, and a few other high end systems. The FS-808s sound very similar. I can't attribute any differences to more than the listening room. Associated Equipment: Yamaha RXV-463 SonySTR-DG1000 Sony SAW3800 subwoofer Oppo DVD player Samsung HDTV Dish network HDTV receiver All HDMI signal paths."

Stuart R. from Fort Worth, TX | HT-808B's


"Bought SR-490 & the 808's two months ago with some concern because of the lack of hearing them prior to purchasing. Got them and noted the excellent packing. Set them up and let them play for two days to allow for break in. Finally, after two days, I put a CD in the tray and turned it up. WOW!! The Who never sounded so good even compared to my older B&W speakers. At first I thought they were a little bright, but experience told me to let them burn in for a couple of weeks before making any adjustments. I am glad I did, because they sound wonderful now. Next I put a Return of the Jedi movie in and sat back to enjoy. I always had some problems getting proper balance in my rear channel but the bidirectional speakers made listening to THX movies a whole new experience. I can't wait to replace my mid surround and center channel speakers and I hope to even replace the sub woofer in time too with Streem speakers. I couldn't be happier. One note. The speakers have a vinyl finish instead of a real wood veneer like the POLK and B&W speakers I am used to. When you buy a speaker as large as the 808's it becomes a piece of furniture and having a good quality wood veneer would be a nice option at minimal cost. The speakers look good however, and are not an eye sore in my theatre room."

John C. from Gray, ME | FS-808's and SR-490's


"I've had my speakers for 5 months now. I have had absolutely no problems whatsoever. I'm running a Harmon Kardon AVR 645 pushing 75 true RMS watts. These speakers handle it with NO problem. Movies and music both sound outstanding. I would recommend."

Michael K. from Omaha, NE | HT-808B's


"I bought a pair of FS-808's. I ordered these and got them 2 days later. I could not buy a better pair of speakers anywhere for twice the price. I have a Pioneer VSX-1017TXV-K powering these speakers and i can crank it up all the way and the sound is absolutely cristal clear. I recommend these to anyone looking for a top quality set of speakers."

Pierre C. from Hornell Heights, ON | FS-808's


"I picked up the speakers on Friday and installed them this afternoon, (the wall mounting brackets are a nice touch on your part, I may add). Your packaging was "bullet proof", as there was such a major crushed corner on the outer & inner box, that I was almost not going to accept delivery @ the post office. I had them make a note of it, for insurance purposes, then took them home and I am glad I did. The styrofoam inserts, took the brunt of the punishment and the speakers themselves, did not show even so much as a scuff, well done.

As for sound they are all that I had anticipated! The problem with rear's is that they are for the most part all forward firing and are ineffective unless you are 3 - 4 feet in front of them, (very few folks have the floor space for this arrangement), but these units resolve the problem as I suspected they would. For true audiophile sound I am a 2-channel guy, (my Magnepan's are in my sound room and not my video room), so I am not unfamiliar with premium high quality sound, but I do enjoy a good movie in 5.1, DTX, etc. The design, components and quality of construction of these speakers is exceptional for the low price tag and as far as "surround sound" is concerned, I will highly recommend them to anyone!"

Lyle D. from Mississauga, ON | SR-490's


"ok here we go,i ordered my 808s and a cv-525 monday night after reading many reviews and i was impressed. the shipping was phenomonal,double packaged(which sucked lol couldnt open them fast enough )and they arrived friday 12:30pm (moose jaw sask.) so need less to say i went to work and had to go home sick (cough cough hack hack if ya know what i mean lol).

Cam D. from Moose Jaw, SK | FS-808's and CV-525


"BUY SOME"

Darryl L. from Calgary, AB | HT-500's, RW-240's and SW-10


"great speakers with awesome sound"

Mike P. from Mount Brydges, ON | SR-490's


"Great sound in an attractive package. Excellent match for my older Angstrom units."

Don H. from Burlington, ON | RW-120


"I have the CV525 as a centre channel and a pair or SR 290's as rear surround speakers. I am very happy with the way they blend in with my B&W front speakers and Velodyne subwoofer. They provide excellent value for the money and I have heard speakers retailing for double and triple the cost that do not come close to their performance."

Bernie M. from Brasd'Or, NS | CV-525 and SR-290's


"To all interested in purchasing extremely good speakers for a good price, Streem is a place to look. I'm an active music listener for the last 35 years and these (FS-808 towers) speakers are by far the best I ever owned, they look awesome and sound even better. They have deep bass (no need for sub) and extremely clear highs.

I tested them on three different genre cd's:Klaus Schulze's "Mirage" (electronic progressive), ZZ Top's "Tres hombres" (hard blues rock) and Carmen's "Fandangos in space" (flamenco rock) and on all three speakers passed with flying colors. I have these speakers for almost six months now and I am more pleased with every passing day. Even my old, non-remastered cd'c sound awesome so I am able to rediscover my collection all over again. I'm proud to be the part of Streem family and I will certainly do bussines with them again. Highly recommended."

Lou T. from Wetaskiwin, AB | FS-808's


"I have now purchased two sets of the HT 808's. One for my first theater room and now my second. Dynamic range is excellent. Speakers are very efficient."

Dave F. from Allen, TX | HT-808's


"Read other reviews before purchasing them and the reviews were good so i decided to try them and i am glad i did. For the price and the sound you get from them got nothing bad to say. So if someone is looking for a good surround sound speaker set up but a reasonable price this is it."

Andy B. from Chapleau, ON | HT-808's


"Totally happy with the 5 speaker system I bought. Everything looks great and works better. I will reccommend Streem speakers, really happy with my decision."

Terrance M. from Lakewood, WA | HT-500's


"Great bang for your Buck! Nice looking and ideal for a 7.1 surround setup."

Stefan D. from Ottawa, ON | BP-100's


"I had no idea that you guys existed until i went on ebay looking for some surround sound speakers. I found these and was in aww after i had listened to them the first time. They are excellent speakers and if i would have heard of your company i would have probably bought more merchandise. You should advertise much more and get out there because you make quality merch and a nice price. Thank you!! Excellent product!!!"

James P. from Carol Stream, IL | SR-290's


"Very well satisfied with this speaker, will add others as funds become available."

Robert S. from Courtenay, BC | RW-120


"Thank you. I have had them a year now and I have not experienced a better sound any where. I own the HT-500 set. Very nice looking. They were packed better then any gear I have bought on line. Thank you for your true sound and quality. I am a true believer."

Len C. from Campbell, CA | HT-500's


"These speakers are amazing! I recently purchased the Streem HT-808 Surround Speaker Package from Station Street, consisting of the FS-808 Front Towers, the CV-525 Center and the SR-290 Rear Surrounds. I have never reviewed any product I've purchased before, but these speakers exceeded my expectations by such a large margin, I thought I'd write.

In the last few months I auditioned (in 2 showrooms) 5 different surround speaker packages and only 1 package sounded better than the Streem's with the biggest difference being the price - $3200.00 before taxes - more than 6 times the amount I paid for this Streem package! The other 4 packages ranged from $640.00 to $2400.00 and none of them was in the same realm sonically or musically as the Streem's. Period!!

The 808's bass response is deep without being muddy or overpowering. The midrange is ultra-clear and crisp without being fatiguing and the treble is very very clean without a hint of sibilance! The 525 center, again, is ultra-clear and crisp and produces midrange effortlessly. The 290's round out the system very nicely. The 808's in Stereo mode (no sub) sound impressive on their own, but in Pro Logic IIx Music mode (with the center, rears and sub on) the effect on cd, dvd (concerts) and satellite tv music is nothing short of astonishing! They sound equally impressive with dvd movies and satellite tv. The key to these speakers, I feel, are the tweeters - cymbals and snares sound like cymbals and snares, crowd noise on sports and live music broadcasts is really defined and genuine and that's not to take anything away from the woofers and midranges in this system because they hold their own very capably. I cannot find fault with any element of the sound any of these speakers produce. Bi-amp the 808's if possible.

The only, slightly negative thing I can say about my entire purchase of this speaker package are the included cables for the 808's and the 525 - do not use these cables - buy decent cables from the money you saved purchasing these speakers (I think Station Street sells cables too), you won't be disappointed.

There are better sounding speaker packages, but you'll have to open the vault up wide to get something comparable to this Streem package.

I couldn't be happier with my purchase, and it is my pleasure to provide you with this honest review of you HT-808 speaker package."

Martin R. from Deep River, ON | HT-808's


"I have owned the Streem 500 Speakers for 5 months now. One word really says it all. WOW!!!! These are the best sounding speakers I have ever heard. My wife and I listen to music a lot more now because we love the live sounding music that these speakers produce. I would recommend these speakers to everyone. The 8 inch woofer is large enough to fill my living room. Keep up the good work. Class AAA all the way. Speakers arrived very well packaged and the fit and finish are top quality. Pure ART"

Stephen A. from North Stratford, NH | RW-500's


"If you looking for the best bang for your buck in a surround speaker system then look no further than the Streem HT-500 series. I luckily came across this speaker company on eBay, read some reviews, called their customer service with questions and then decided to place my order and have not regretted it one bit. These speskers sound as good as they look. I've owned a lot of high end speakers in my younger days and these speakers can go toe to toe with any of the big names that cost 2 to 3 times as much. They are well constructed and with the beautiful cherry wood and black finish, the wife won't even mind these in her living room. When listening to music they're perfect but if you're a movie buff, you may want to consider adding their sub for that extra thump. Not a must but something to consider. Other than that, you won't go wrong with the Streem HT-500's. P.S. Amazingly well packaged when they are shipped to you."

Rob F. from Saskatoon, SK | HT-500's


"Hi friends, I bought few months ago a speaker system HT-808 and I'm very happy with the choice what I made it, because the speakers sounds very good, they also look very good and they handle well every style of music. I powered them with an amplifier Yamaha RX-1500V and a subwoofer Klipsch. They sounds incredible on movies and fantastic on concerts. I think they are great for the money which you pay for them."

Vivian V. from Gatineau, QC | HT-808's


"The speakers look really good and are complement to any room. The sound is very good and makes you feel as if you are in the middle of action of the movie. The price is very fair."

Thomas M. from Bristow, VA | HT-500's


"I bought your BP150 Center Channel Speaker on EBay sight & sound unseen & unheard. It replaces a Cambridge Soundworks CenterStage speaker which caught fire from a candle. I am not sorry I chose Streem and this speaker. It does exactly what it is supposed to do and it sounds wonderful. The build is solid and the finish - I don't know how to describe it well enough to do it justice. Seamless, literally is the piano gloss black finish. I could not find a seam anywhere - including the back. Well done Streem!"

Steve H. from Carlton, OR | BP-150


"Made an excellent addition to our system .Very well crafted and the sound is equal to speakers that cost more ."

David S. from Jarvis, ON | BP-150


"I bought the Streem HT-808 5-piece surround sound combo. I have been using these speakers for 1 year now and am very happy with my purchase. The speakers arrived via UPS from the Canadian distributor one week after I ordered them. They were extremely well packed, and my first impression was that they looked fantastic. I connected them to a Pioneer VSX-1015TX receiver with 10-gauge wire and banana plugs, and then used the receiver's built-in autoconfigure tool to set the speaker levels. This actually produced a very unsatisfactory result. The problem was that the front tower speakers produced so much bass response that the receiver decided it was best to turn off the subwoofer. After some manual fiddling with the receiver settings (needed to set the front speakers to 'small' to get the sub to work), I finally got some impressive bass sound.

The front speakers each have 4 banana sockets and support bi-amping. So I removed the bridge and used the two unused side channels from my 7.1 receiver to provide additional power to the front channels. Both the Streem speakers and the VXS-1015TX included instructions for doing this. For those not familiar with bi-amping, it essentially doubles the power being fed into the two large front speakers from the receiver. The sound I am now getting from the HT-808 system is phenomenal. Are these the best speakers on the market? No. You can do better if you are prepared to spend an arm and a leg. But for the price the HT-808's represent fantastic value."

Andrew R. from Airdrie, AB | HT-808's


"I'm very happy with my purchase. Like most people, I was a little bit sketchy with buying speakers online without having listened to them first, but after receiving them, I can recommend them without hesitation to those considering purchasing these speakers. Clean, clear sound without any distortion is all one can ask for from speakers, and these deliver in spades. My highest recommendation would be to state that I would purchase these speakers again without hesitation."

Alan S. from Medicine Hat, AB | CV-525 & FS-808's


"Excellent speakers, I am very impressed with the company in all aspects. I will definitely purchase more speakers in the future and have recommended to several people."

Zsolt K. from Brantford, ON | FS-808's


"Great separation and very clean sound. Tight base, very esthetically pleasing. I am happy with my purchase."

Dave H. from Vancouver, BC | BP-200's


"Speakers are more solid than I expected. The sound quality is also solid with a range comparable to the high end (and more costly) speakers in my set-up."

Jason H. from Markham, ON | SR-490's


"I just upgraded to Harman Kardon AVR..old rear speakers were useless! Read reviews and specs on the bipoles. They were just perfect. Older technology but well built and for the price...W O W !!"

Charles F. from Denton, TX | SR-490's


"Fit and finish, Incredible clarity and realism. True uncolored reproduction. Out of all the components I ordered on line, the Streeem speakers were packed the best.

I have been in and around all facets of the music industry since I was 16 years of age. I just turned 60. Since I retired in 1999, I started collecting alot of older HIFI speakers and Tube amps. Sound Dynamics speakers; Infinity RS-6; Older Bose; ARs ect. I have a system in every room in the house. Except the two bath rooms. I wanted the new home theater room to have the HT-500 set. Best choice at any price."

Len C. from Campbell, CA | HT-500's


"Well packaged, fast delivery, great customer service and, most importantly, excellent sound! I listened to Polk, Infinity and JBL first - No competition!! Will be buying from you again. Thanks, Jeff"

Jeff H. from Livingston, SC | HT-808's


"Truly, words cannot describe the value you are getting for the money, with these speakers. It is very unusual to get more for less in today's day and age. Definitely Streem audio has pulled it off. The old adage it's to good to be true, does not apply here, because it is true the speakers are fantastic and more. Don't even think twice if you are doubtful. Buy them, and you won't be disappointed."

Jose Q. from Toronto, ON | BP-200's


"Only good comments on my speaker , (just try too take it away )"

Michel D. from St-Martine, QC | BP-150


"Very happy with my new centre channel speaker it looks and sounds awesome."

Gary M. from Virden, MB | BP-150


"I have been very pleased with the speakers so far, they seem like a quality set of audio equipment."

Brent K. from Shadyside, OH | HT-808's


"I bought the Streem HT-500 speakers 3 months ago. I just finished my home theater room. I have a back ground in music and recording for 40 years. To any one with a doubt. These speakers are the best. Don't waste money on any others. Fit and finish and the way they are shipped, compare to speaker costing three times as much. Lenny says"

Len C. from Campbell, CA | HT-500's


"I've had my eye on the HT808 system for about one year and finally pulled the trigger during Christmas. My wife knew I needed some new speakers so she bought me a pair of Paradigm Phantoms and I wasn't really impressed. They were just too small for my room. So, we exchanged them and got the entire 808 system with the SR490 rears,, all at about the same cost of the two Paradigms. Best yet, the sound is great and really fills the room. I'm very impressed. 2 Channel music sounds great and the 5 speaker home theatre is excellent while watching movies. It's understandable to be a bit hesitant buying speakers without hearing them, but I'm glad I "took the chance". Put me on your list of happy customers who now has an impressive sound system for about $800. You can't really go wrong. Thanks"

Barry R. from Thompson, MB | HT-808B's


"I ordered friday morning and was installing my SR-490's, Monday evening. I needed something of quality at a reasonable price to dress up my audio system since I just bought a Plasma TV. My amplifier and speakers are quite ordinary from a deal at Bestbuy. I started "Superman returns" and skipped to the scene were he saves the plane. The speakers are mind boggling. Save your money and go for these, you won't regret it."

Daniel G. from Carignan, QC | SR-490's


"I recently purchased a pair of RW 500 Speakers from Station Street. I accidentally stumbled across them while surfing the internet, for speakers. I liked what I read as far as specs and positive reviews. In fact I couldn’t find a negative review on any Streem speakers. My biggest dilemma was not if I was going to purchase Streem, but what model. I only wanted a pair of speakers, not the complete surround package, at this point. There weren’t a whole lot of reviews on the RW 500 compared to the HT 808 speakers. I did like the design of the RW 500 speakers, but thought maybe they might have lacked base, where the HT 808 speakers may have had a little more base than I preferred, although I never heard them. This was based on a few reviews only. After talking with the people at Streem they assured me the RW 500’s didn’t lack base period. It just wasn’t as prevalent as the HT 808’s.

I took a chance and am glad I did. I love these speakers. They come doubled boxed and shipping is included. It made it from ST Catherine’s to my door in Calgary in five days. I have them hooked up to a Kenwood KR 9600 Receiver from the late 70’s. This produces a clean 160 watts per channel. I was really impressed with these speakers from the get go. The picture from Stream’s home page does them no justice. The dark cherry wood is esthetically pleasing, and they truly are a real eye catcher. The sound these speakers give off are incredible. You hear everything better, and it really highlights the instruments. These speakers by the way do not lack base at all when called for. I will recommend an equalizer to enhance the sound of any speakers, and bring out the true clarity and sound.

There are better speakers out there, but not anywhere near this price, usually two to three times more. I will continue to buy Streem products after my experience. Thank you Streem."

Brian M. from Calgary, AB | RW-500's


"I purchased the CV-525 Centre Channel Speaker to replace a Polk Audio centre speaker. I couldn't be happier. Great sound. So good - I now want to purchase 4 other speakers to replace the Polk satellite speakers. My surround sound receiver is a Harman Kardon. My sub-woofer is a Polk and is OK. Great product - thanks."

John L. from London, ON | CV-525


"A great set of speakers used to complement my theater. Surround system used as center speakers on my system. Sound great, also look fantastic."

Bryan T. from Melville, SK | BP-100's


"hey guys i just baught this system and i bought a new onkyo reciever for 600 dollors and just hooked up with my streem system and after some songs i relized that my new streem system beats my old boss series. and guess what my neighbers complained to me next day that its not a club its a appartment building. well now i m very happy and my brother said he is going to replace his boss with streem. thanx a lot to give me a great system with free shipment and without breaking my budget. streem is the best."

Muhammad A. from New Haven, CT | HT-500's


"Got the Model: HT-808 5-Piece Surround Sound Speaker Combo. Nice big sound for our HT setup! Shipping was prompt and packaging was impressive. Everything arrived in one piece. :-) "

Idan S. from Calgary, AB | HT-808's


"Hey guy's I just wanted to let you know that I am running a NAD 2700 THX power amp listed at 150 watts aside at 8 ohms RMS. This amp is capable of putting out 200 watts of dynamic power and up to 400 watts peak in short bursts all in 8 ohms. I am also running an Adcom GTP-500II tuner/preamp with a NAD C542 cd player. You should hear the sound from these speakers with this high end equipment, it will blow your mind. I have left a review already but I wanted to let you know. I have not had a chance to turn this roof/wall blasting power amp up to see how these speakers would sound loud. But again I am impressed with the sound. I will not abuse these speakers. I bought the HT-500 surround set but running the RW-500's in the front with this amp, WOW. Thanks again guy's. Jason K, from Hamilton, Ontario"

Jason K. from Hamilton, ON | HT-500's


"I have bought the HT-808 Kit from a Ontario online store. I've read many reviews about this product and decided to try it. I have this setup for 1 mounth now and Im very happy with. sound is Clear, Bass is enought. Very well craft speaker box. Fit #1 my new home theater setup. for the price Im happy!"

Martin S. from Saint-Bruno, QC | HT-808's


"Awesome speakers. I was a little leery about buying speakers online without the benefit of hearing them. The reviews that I was reading as well as the price gave me a better feeling though and I am not disappointed at all. The HT-33's are all that was promised. Well packaged, quick shipment and excellent sound. I would recommend STREEM speakers in a heartbeat. Thanks for a great product"

Carl B. from York, PA | HT-33's


"I bought the Streem HT-808 5-piece surround sound combo, and added the Streem SW-10 powered subwoofer. I have been using these speakers for 3 months now and am very happy with my purchase. The speakers arrived via UPS from the Canadian distributor the day after I ordered them. They were extremely well packed, and my first impression was that they looked fantastic.

I connected them to a Pioneer VSX-1015TX receiver with 10-gauge wire and banana plugs, and then used the receiver’s built-in autoconfigure tool to set the speaker levels. This actually produced a very unsatisfactory result. The problem was that the front tower speakers produced so much bass response that the receiver decided it was best to turn off the subwoofer. It actually took some time to figure out why I wasn’t getting any sound from the sub. After some manual fiddling with the receiver settings (needed to set the front speakers to ‘small’ to get the sub to work), I finally got some impressive thumping sound.

The front speakers each have 4 banana sockets and support bi-amping. So I removed the bridge and used the two unused side channels from my 7.1 receiver to provide additional power to the front channels. Both the Streem speakers and the VXS-1015TX included instructions for doing this. For those not familiar with bi-amping, it essentially doubles the power being fed into the two large front speakers from the receiver. The sound I am now getting from the HT-808 system is phenomenal. To put it into perspective, cranking up the Black Eyed Peas rattles the dishes in my kitchen cupboards in the next room, and vibrates the aluminum siding on the outside of my house. The sound is not just loud though, it is crisp and clear.

I have read a few HT-808 reviews that say you do not really need to buy a subwoofer for this system, but I have to disagree. The HT-808 and SW-10 combination seems perfect. Turning off the sub does significantly decrease the output of the system. I am admittedly a bass freak though, and believe that one should be able to feel a home theatre, not just hear it. Are these the best speakers on the market? No. You can do better if you are prepared to spend an arm and a leg. But for the price the HT-808 plus SW-10 represent fantastic value."

Paul M. from Waterloo, ON | HT-808's and SW-10


"Wow!! Great suround system. They look great and they sound better. It is my first set but I would not buy something else. I realy recomended. There is no better quality product at this price."

Ioan V. from Rocky Hill, CT | HT-808's


"I am running an HK receiver with the FS-808's for music / home theatre. The purchasing process was convenient and the packaging excellent. My only regret is not getting them sooner. These babies rock!"

Keith R. from Kanata, ON | FS-808's


"These speakers are everything I expected and more. The price was very good and the packaging was just superb. The fastest shipping I have ever seen. The sound is second to none. I have listened to 1500 dollar speakers that do not sound as good as these. I'm totally happy with my purchase and have recommended them to many of my friends. I was a little scared at first but now that I have them I have become attched to them. I highly recommend them to anyone thinking about purchasing these. The easiest descision you will ever make."

Paulo M. from Cambridge, ON | FS-808's


"I have 2 home theatre setups, both with identical receivers and video displays. One has an expensive Mission Centre Channel Speaker (purchased first) and the other has a Stream Centre Channel (BP-150). My preference is the latter, and I spend more time with listening/watching that unit."

Sulo V. from Carp, ON | BP-150


"The sound quality is excellent. I love the cristal clear sound. The cosmetic perfect !!! The gloss piano finish give them a really nive look."

Martin A. from Montreal, QC | BP-200's


"I just purchased a pair of SR-490s for my home theater and I'm very satisfied. I have about $5k total into my home theater and I was looking to upgrade my rather puny satellite rear channels to larger dipole surrounds for an affordable amount. I was somewhat apprehensive to purchase Streem speakers at first, having never heard about their reputation but, after a little research I felt it was a safe buy. After listening to the 490's for 3 weeks now I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. They do a top notch job of weaving the rear surround channels into an enveloping field that makes movies that much more enjoyable. The finish on the cabinets is a pinch below what I'd expect from a Big Retail chain brand...JBL/Klipsch/Bose,etc. but nothing that should prevent anyone from auditioning these gems for themselves. Frankly, for a Pair of speakers at this price point, I have absolutely nothing bad to say about Streem. If you really MUST have a Mahoghany/walnut/oak veneer, go buy Thiel of PSB's and pay the $1100 for it. Everyone else, you owe it to yourself to give Streem a chance."

Jonathan E. from Westerville, OH | SR-490's


"I had just bought a 50" HDTV and was looking to up grade my Home theater. While surffing the internet I came across the HT-500 Home theater listing and went to your web site. After reading all the specs and the reviews I just didn't believe that the speakers could be that good for that low a price.I decided to get a pair of the SR-490 bipole speakers( I have a 6.1 system and wanted a back speaker,the SR-490 was just what I was looking for) this way I could see how well the speakers where made and sounded. I set the SR-490's up in place of my old surround speakers and with in two days I could tell these are excellent sounding and very well made, with in a day or two I went and bought the HT-500 Home Theater set. I have been using them for a few months now and have been nothing but impressed with both the sound and craftmanship of these speakers.This is the first review I have ever returned,and it was my pleasure to do so. Thank you Streem and the best of luck to you, when I need other speakers I'll be looking for you."

Albert V. from Feeding Hills, MA | HT-500's & SR-490's


"I am very pleased with sound and looks of my new Streem Speakers. The customer service from Streem is first class. The shipping and packaging was great -- the speakers arrived in great condition."

Les C. from Edmond, OK | HT-808's


"Excellent quality speakers for the money and amazing customer service."

Razvan N. from Dollard des Ormeaux, QC | HT-808's


"Thanks for delivering my speakers they sound great.  What I am getting out of them is a sonic hallucination.  Thanks a million."

Charles K. from Greensboro, NC | HT-500's


"I never considered myself any type of audiosnob at all. I was using the old speakers I had got in college for my surround system and thought it was ok. Turns out they were just loud. The crisp, clear sounds I am getting from my new Streem System is unbelievable. I can't believe I made do with that old system for so long now. I did comparison shopping beforehand, and the price and quality of Streem blew the competitors out of the water. I ordered them on a Monday and they arrived that Wed! The shipping boxes themselves were impressive...double boxed! Hookup was a snap and the quality of the sound is amazing. I am certainly very pleased with my purchase, but the only problem is I have become an audio snob and find it hard to watch movies at my friend's place now...ha ha"

Brent C. from Fall River, NS | HT-500's


"These are truly a great sounding speakers, I have them as the front speakers on my surrond system, mounted to the wall. the way they project sound is just like advertised where they fill the room, and they can be realy cranked with no distortion(ask my wife...LOL)Great value for the price. I am totaly satisfied with them."

Steve W. from Panama City Beach, FL | SR-490's


"I really enjoy the sound quality and workmanship of these speakers.  I replaced a set of Definitive Technology speakers from Streem's and I'd do it again."

Tony F. from Bridgeport, CT | RW-500's


"i love my new speakers great sound loud, great quialty just need sub and im set. no complantes at all."

Alison D. from Burlington, ON | HT-33's


"Wonderful sounding speakers. Excellent look."

Marc D. from Winnipeg, MB | RW-120


"I just got my speekers hooked up and love them thanks"

Danny M. from Alma, AR | HT-500's


"I have the HT-500 Streem speaker set. I must say for the price I paid for this set, I am very impressed with the sound from these speakers. A great bang for your buck, you should pay alot more for the sound of these speakers. This company stands behind their product and the customer service is superb like their product. I have told friends and family about these speakers and hopefully they will get a reality check and buy these speakers. Thanks guy's for the awesome service and product."

Jason K. from Hamilton, ON | HT-500's


"I recently purchased a pair of FS-808 speakers, to replace a much older pair. The sound from the speakers is very good, and they seem to be very well-constructed. I don't believe it's necessary to have a sub-woofer with these speakers, because the bass seemed great just as they are. Customer service is also excellent, and the speakers arrived quickly, and very well-packed. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase, and would recommend these speakers to anyone."

Pawan J. from Willowdale, ON | FS-808's


"I recently purchased the bp150 center speaker from streem. It seems I made a very good decision. The speaker was doubled boxed. Inside of the inner box, the speaker was wrapped in a bag and a foam piece is on each corner.The speaker has a very clean and professional look to it, I especially like the high gloss finish, it reflects like a black mirror.After hooking it up I was blown away by the sound coming from the speaker.I have seen many  speakers at local dealers but for the price of the Streem you can't get anything that compares in quality or appearance. I have no problem recommending streem speakers for there quality and customer service.I would go as far as calling them xstreem. Great job team Streem!"

Simon Z. from Laval, QC | BP-150


"I could not rationalize spending thousands of dollars on name brand speakers to complete my home theater system; therefore, I did some research to find a good set of quality home theater speakers without blowing the budget.  I believe I have found them, I purchased the HT-808 5-Piece Surround Sound Speaker Combo a couple of months ago and have been nothing but pleased with the craftsmanship and sound quality.  I was also pleased with the customer service, the staff was able to answer my questions about the product and the speakers arrived in less than a week. I have the speakers hooked up to an Onkyo TX-SR602 receiver and I think the system sounds great!  I am happy that I did purchase these speakers and don't think there are better speakers out there for the price.  I would definitely recommend these speakers for someone looking to purchase a good, high quality set of home theater speakers without breaking your budget."

Eric S. from New York, NY | HT-808's


"I am completely satisfied with the 808 speakers. They are of excellent quality and sound as good as speakers 4 times their cost."

Todd J. from St. Albert, AB | FS-808's


"I have been extremely happy with the purchase of these STREEM speakers. To my ear they are comparable to speakers on the market priced at least twice as much. They offer a high end sound for a very reasonable investment. The process of buying and delivery was seamless and timely. I would recommend both the company and product very highly."

Michael C. from Winnipeg, MB | RW-500's


"Excellent speakers, supurb range and sound quality when connected to a good reciever. Strongly reccommended."

John C. from Denver, CO | RW-240's


"I purchased the HT-33 system ten days ago. So far, so... excellent.

Now, i purchased these system after a few weeks of Internet searches and reading reviews. Basically my final choice was between the Streem HT-33 system and the Fluance SX-HTB. They are very similar in specs and price. My decision to go with the Streem system was based on the fact that the Streem dealer I purchased form offered a 30 day money back guarantee.

It seems I made a very good decision. These babies look awesome... Even my wife likes them :) And they sound awesome as well. I actually picked the up from the dealer, but they are very well packaged and I don't think there would be problems if ordered online and shipped via UPS. I am using a Pioneer VSX-D608 receiver to power them. What else can I say: I don't think you will find better speakers in this price range. In spite of some reviewers complaining about the lack of bass, I think the speakers provide more than enough bass, both for my room and my neighbours'."

Daniel M. from Toronto, ON | HT-33's


"I'am very satisfied with my new speakers. The sound is amazing and I love the shape of them .Thanks"

Igor N. from Montreal, QC | HT-808's & SR-290's


"I am currently building a home theater in the basement and wanted matching speakers all around. An upgrade was needed. I did a lot of searching on the internet looking for great speakers at a low price. Streems prices and free shipping played a large factor in my decision.

I bit the bullet and ordered these on a weekend, they were shipped on monday (shipping is included in the price!), and on thursday UPS was at my door with ALL five boxes. That is what I call fast.

Yes, I was a little worried when I placed my orders. I had never heard of Streem speakers before my research and I did not know the reliability of this company. Let me tell you that you do not need to worry. The speakers are as the site says and customer service is top notch.

These speakers are hooked up temporarily in my living room. I am using an Onkyo TX-DS777 receiver and a JBL sub. The Streem speakers sound awsome and balanced. The spacial field is very nice and at times almost too real. Base was a little too much but a little tweek on the EQ and LFE fixed that. I was using JBL-HLS610's and these blow them out of the water.

All speakers are doubled boxed. Inside of the inner box, each speaker is wrapped in a bag and a foam piece is on each corner. They also include speaker wire (However, I suggest that you use a higher guage). The speakers have gold banana plugs, gold floor spikes, 5 year warrenty, and the list goes on and on.

When I opened the Bipole speakers, I had one speaker grill that had an error. I have sent it back (need an RMA) and streem is replacing it and reimbursing me the shipping cost.

The speakers have a very clean and professional look to them. They are built very well and above all they sound fantastic.

When you upgrade, do not overlook this company or their products."

Sarah W. from Temple, PA | HT-808's & SR-490's


"Oh yes, fully satisfied ! And when my room will ready for my home cinema, i will buy two Streem front speakers !"

Jocelyn P. from St-Augustin de Desmaures, QC | CV-525 & SR-280's


"I purchased the HT-33 5-Piece Surround Sound Speaker Set... I am very pleased. The speakers are solid and well-finished, the sound is clear and precise, and they can handle a lot of power. I've had them for about 3 or 4 months now, and I am really like what I am hearing.

Keep up the good work!"

Rob R. from Scarborough, ON | HT-33's


"Speakers are exactly as described cabinets have a beautiful finish and sound is crisp and clear. crisp highs and good midrange and lows. Combined with a powered subwoofer, home theater and music listening experience is awesome!"

Chris N. from Westlock, AB | FS-808's


"I am very happy with my new center channel speaker. The sound is amazing and I am planning on buying a set of rear speakers from you in the near future. Thanks"

Jeremy P. from Edmonton, AB | RW-120


"I am very satisfied with the quality/performance in relation to very reasonable prices.

I have purchased the RW-120 centre channel speaker and it has integrated quite well the the rest of my home theatre system.

Thanks, KL"

K L. from Sudbury, ON | RW-120


"I purchased a set of HT-500's from ebay and these truly are high-end speakers. They sound cleaner and less tinny then my old Pioneer set and personally I think it sounds every bit as good as my friend's Klipsch's!

For the price you cannot find any better speakers. Not only do they sound good, the build quality is superb, and they have a great classy look!"

Charles H. from Baton Rouge, LA | HT-500's


"The HT-808 Home Audio Theater Speakers are an excellent value for the money. I added a JBL subwoofer and the set has sound equivalent to speaker sets two to three times their price. In other words, I am very happy with the purchase."

Brian G. from St. Louis, MO | HT-808's


"I was blown away by the sound coming from my 808's, I listen to techno music which has a tendency to be very hard on speakers due to the constant hammering of a very heavy bass line, I have a very nice Denon pre Amp (old school style) with a heavy duty Polk Audio Subwoofer and there is no discernable difference with or without the Sub at mid to high volume, these speakers don't need it, if these speakers are able to handle the music "I" listen to then they will handle "anything" the average or even above average listener will give them. (And I would assume your customers are "above average")

Instead of "Streem" they should be called "Extreem".

And all 4 speakers for $800.00 and some change "Hello" Please do yourself a favor and quit looking for better speakers and if your looking for better speakers at a better price then knock yourself out. You deserve to waste your time."

Joe L. from Aloha, OR | FS-808's


"After receiving my HT-808 5 piece speaker set, I immediately was impressed by the care in packaging. Everything arrived flawless, and when I opened them I was even more excited. The workmanship of each speaker was excellent, and after setting them I was truly blown away. They have the dynamic, rich, room filling sound of systems costing 10X as much. The lows were deep and strong, but not boomy, and the highs were crystal, through a whole range of volume.

The system really sizzled when watching movies, I have never experienced such realism in a home theater set up, and actually got chills like I remember getting only in a movie theater setting. I would not hesitate in purchasing again, and highly recommend them to anyone!"

Blair M. from Harrison Township, MI | HT-808's


"I recently purchased my Streem speakers and I can only say good things about them. First from the initial dealing with Streem Speakers company to the purchase everything has been a pleasure. When it comes to the speakers I was just amazed. The clear crisp sound that they give off is well worth the money. To be honest these speakers could sell for much more. Dealing with a company that is relatively unknown is a scary thing but I would truly recommend these speakers and company. I am going to purchase some more speakers to finish my system and I know they will be Streem speakers.

Good luck in the future Streem..."

Shawn K. from Allentown, PA | HT-808's


"I have been a musician for about 27 years and I have a sensitive ear for good sounding music. The Streem speakers have been a pleasant surprise for being good and affordable speakers. Now I have been watching more concert DVDs than ever. The small subs are surprisingly deep and loud enough that occasionally I do not need to turn the separate subwoofer on. The warranty provided is a great thing for a young company to give the customers a sense of confidence. I will gladly recommend the products."

Harry S. from Edmonton, AB | HT-33's


"J'ai fait l'aquisition du HT-500 par EBAY ,la livraison a été très rapide, tout a bien été protègé pour le transport. Suite à la réception, la surprise de les voir en vrai(wow!!), car sur écran ce n'est pas comme les toucher en magasin, maintenant toute la famille les utilise (en stéréo ou pour le cinéma maison). Pour son prix et la présentation que l'ensemble nous donne que dire de plus «pouvez-vous faire la même chose avec des automobiles?»"

Daniel L. from Rock Forest, QC | HT-500's


"I recently purchased an array of STREEM speakers to compliment my new Harman Kardon AVR630 receiver. In order to utilize the 7.1 feature I ordered

Model: HT-808 5-Piece Surround Sound Speaker Combo Model: SR-290 Rear Surround Speakers

The shipping and handling was not too bad. I received the speakers within 5 days (excludes weekend).

The installation was fairly simple and upon careful inspection, the craftsmanship rivals those of high caliber audiophile systems. Nice -- tight design, and non of the paper thin crap you get in Asia.

A few mp3s and dvds later, I began to appreciate the investment. Thanks STREEM."

AA Dist. USA from Granada Hills, CA | HT-808's and SR-290's


"The Streem FS-808 are fantastic speakers. They push out very good lows and with the design of the cone placement, the high end remains at ear level.

Very glad on my purchase of these."

Jason H. from Saskatoon, SK | FS-808's


"I wanted to write and let you know how pleased I am with the HT808 speaker package I purchased recently. The product does indeed stack up to reviews that others have posted on the internet. I just love its rich balanced sounds - especially the nice deep bass. It is a quality product at an amazing price. Service was excellent, and it was a pleasure to meet the people behind this product."

Jacob E. from King City, ON | HT-808's


"I purchased the HT-33 5 speaker surround set. I have been using these speakers for the past couple of months and they are outstanding for the price i paid. I have seen many sets of speakers at local dealers but for the price of the Streem you can't get anything that compares in quality or appearance.

These things come double boxed, so don't worry about any shipping problems. A purchase I would definitely repeat."

Bob D. from Sherwood Park, AB | HT-33's


"This HT-500 set is the most incredible sounding speaker system I've ever heard. I thought it would take thousands upon thousands of dollars to acheive a sound this clear and brilliant. I'll never listen to a sound system the same way again."

Brent T. from Saskatoon, SK | HT-500's


"I purchased the HT-200 5-Piece Piano Gloss Surround Sound Speaker Combo recently. Let me begin by saying that these speakers look gorgeous right out of the box. In fact, I was so impressed with the look of the speakers, I ended up renovated my entire den in order to showcase their beauty.

When people walk into my den, it is rare that any miss seeing the speakers. They standout and compliment the room perfectly. But for those person less perceptive, they too perk up when I turn on my receiver. These speakers sound AWESOME!!!

I threw in a CD mp3 mix that had a bit of everything - some dance, techno, classical, jazz, rock n' roll, new age and instrumental all mixed together. I was blown away at how well the speakers accomodated the various genres!! So I started listening to CDs I haven't listened to in 15 years. You know something sounds great when - without you realizing it - your 40 year old legs start dancing again and your playing air guitar. The vocals from the centre speaker is crystal clear. The highs and mid-range sound is clean and smooth. It feels like a wide open soundstage coming right out of my walls. Yet the sound emitted is warm and soft when the occasion calls. The speakers are far superior to the Polks I have (that are now in the basement) and at least as good as or better than my brother-in-law's Axioms."

David R. from Thornhill, ON | HT-200's


"I was looking for a quality full 7.1 surround sound speaker set. I looked at the Klispch, Infinity etc..but they were way overpriced. Then I found the Streem speakers..the price fit my budget much better so I went ahead and made the purchase. I will say, the order and delivery went perfectly!

And the sound, well, I am so happy that I didn't buy the others mentioned. These are twice the build quality and the sound is supperb..Our HT room is 40' long by 18' wide. these things are nothing short of awesome! If your looking to save money, but not sacrifice on quality, I urge you to try out Streem. You will NOT be dissapointed!"

Allen C. from Platte City, MO | HT-808's and SR-290's


"After much deliberation and checking out the speaker reviews at audioreview.com, I decided to purchase the HT-500. You will not find better sounding or looking speakers in this price point! Prompt service, great return policy and warranty. I am proud to recommend these speakers to all my friends. STREEM is another great Canadian success story!"

David J. from Miami, FL | HT-500's


"I ordered the HT-808 speaker system with some hesitation since I couldn't hear them prior to buying. I'm also "old school" and felt that the kind of bass response I like can only come from large woofers. A subwoofer was going to be a must, or so I thought. The speakers arrived very well packaged(double boxed) and impressed me with their build quality. I thought they sounded good right out of the box but with break in they keep sounding better and better over all frequencies. The bass response actually rivals the monster speakers I've had in the past. A subwoofer really isn't required at all. Just the same I see that Streem has one now and I certainly have no reservations about buying another product from this company."

Dean M. from Chilliwack, BC | HT-808's


"I was very reluctant to buy speakers over the internet. There are a lot of quality speakers on the market today. It is just a matter in the end "How much you want to spend?". I bought the 5 piece set of the 808's plus the BP-100's for a 15x20 media room. I use a Yamaha RXV 2500 and a 12" Velodyne for a sub woofer. So for less than $2k I have a room that sounds like a $4k-$5k test room when I went to a custom home theater store. The quality of the speakers was top notch from a manufacturing perspective. There were no flaws, the wood is all properly constucted and the gold terminals were solid. The speakers came double boxed and there were no issues with anything! So if you want to spend 2x the cash and buy a set at a local store knock yourself out. Otherwise, this is a great set of speakers at a bargin price (most likely due to the direct sell over the internet). Thanks Streem!"

Dave F. from Allen, TX | HT-808's and BP-100's


"Let me start by saying that I was extreamly surprised by the sound from the CV-525 Center Channel Speaker, that I thought I'd try the SW-10 Low-Frequency Powered Subwoofer. With these giving the front sound in my home thearter I decided to add a pair of SR-290 Surround speakers & I was not disappointed.

For the price, including delivery I couldn't have purchased anything local that could match the quality & sound I have managed to get from the Streem speakers.

I will be adding a Center Rear in the near future to complete my Home thearter."

Phillip H. from Edmonton, AB | CV-525, SR-290's and SW-10


"I purchased the HT808 w/sub. All I can say is, great speakers, great price, and even better service!

Excellent speakers, along with excellent service... I can't say much more.

It is amazing that I purchased the HT808 theater system along with the sub-woofer and a Pioneer vsx1014 receiver for less than $1300.00

The system sounds as if I spent a small fortune...

Amazed!"

John D. from Highlands, TX | HT-808's and SW-10


"Bought the HT-500 system,it is by far superior to systems 2 to 3 times their price.Clear sharp highs, good base w/o sub woofer.Bi-wire gold plated binding posts,90dB sensitivity,solid build,great looking,work best with DVD and HDTV.Sound is more than wife and dog can handle in an 16' x 20' room w/ 12 ft. clg.( p.s. spend the money saved on a high quality receiver with 90 to 100 watts/channel.)"

Winfried P. from Woodbine, MD | HT-500's


"The speakers are awesome, They were much better than I anticipated. The Home theater just came alive!

The speakers that I had were some pioneer speakers that I thought sounded fairly good and I was looking to upgrade and when I found the Streem speakers I was concerened as I didnt know there history or reputation, But I gave them a try and I am now a confirmed believer. I would and will be buying Streem speakers from now on."

Brad J. from Vancouver, WA | HT-200's


"The HT 808 surround system from Streem has been nothing less than what I expected. I did research on this speaker system and talk to the shipping people in Canada. Very courteous and polite. My amplifier is a 6.1 Yamaha pushing 100 watts per channel Rms At .06 thd and this system rocks the house at all ranges. Highly recommend these speakers for the price."

Robert M. from Lompoc, CA | HT-808's


"We had listened to alot of home theater systems including bose, polk, jbl, klipsch etc. and for the money streem sounded better and as good as some systems 3 times the money. I have no problem recommending streem speakers for there quality and customer service."

Dave S. from Edmonton, AB | HT-808's


"I recently purchased HT-33 speakers set, and so far I can tell you this, GREAT SOUND, great look, awesome price. You can't find any better product in this price range, and I would say lots of speakers that cost much more, don't even getting close to quality of sound that these speakers have."

Michael B. from Vancouver, BC | HT-33's


"I have found my speakers to be excellent. They not only look great but sound awesome. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend highly to anyone."

David B. from Chilliwack, BC | HT-500's


"The speakers came in a well packaged box. Upon installation on my system, they perform very well, and have really enhanced the quality of sound.

The speakers and stands were shipped very promptly, and I had them up and running in a week from ordering. Nice quality finish and looks, and highly recommended. Give them a try."

Glenn N. from Canmore, AB | CV-525 and SR-280's


"The speakers are a nice improvement over my ten+ year old speakers. My taste in music is quite varied and the speakers sound great. I also use them occasionally for movies."

Dave W. from Elizabeth City, NC | HT-33's


"After careful research I purchased the CV-525 center channel and SR-280 rear surround speakers. They are really great and sounds very good. Much better than my previous set."

Alex T. from Nepean, ON | CV-525 and SR-280's


"The recently purchased center speaker is performing exceptionally well so far."

Lionel V. from Mississauga, ON | CV-525


"I am very pleased with your product and the manner in which the sale was completed."

Daniel S. from Ellisville, MO | HT-200's


"Great speakers for a decent price. Keep up the great work."

Dean S. from London, ON | CV-525


"These speakers provide great sound for the price. I have a Pioneer VSX-D514 reciever that gives them a very nice sound."

Matt T. from Covington, KY | HT-33's


"Solid performance for the price."

Przemek K. from Mississauga, ON | HT-33's


"I bought the 808 package, 5.0 speakers. No sub woofer. The main speakers are just awesome, the center is very good as are the rear speakers. The rears are small but handle the power through them just fine. No distortion through any of them. I do only have 100 watts per channel. I bought a sub woofer after three months. This did add to the over all sound. Everybody that has heard this speaker package loves them. I love them. I would buy them again."

Bill W. from Brimfield, MA | HT-808's


"The sound quality of the HT-808 is so awesome that even my wife admitted to hearing the differnce from my old speakers."

Chris E. from Airdrie, AB | HT-808's


"I love these speakers...they r better then Polk and other major brands...Very Nice set of speakers"

Asad I. from Oak Grove, KY | HT-808's


"WOW! Thats the only way to sum it up for me...is WOW! I'm having a hard time believing I paid under $1000 Canadian for the HT-808 speaker system. The sound is incredible, paired with a Yamaha RX-V2500. I set the system up last night, and am thoroughly impressed. Why anyone would want to pay thousands of dollars to have a popular brand nameplate on the front of their speakers is beyond me. The customer service is incredible, I ordered one day, and got them the next. Excellent packaging as well! For anyone looking to start a home theater, or to upgrade those JBL's you still have from the mid 80's, this is the set to go with, without a doubt! With a full 5 year parts and labor warranty, you can't go wrong. Excellent service!"

Duane F. from Trenton, ON | HT-808's


"After the death of our 32" Sony television, I decided that the time had come to upgrade to a full home theater. AT the same time, I did not want to invest a huge amount into something only used a few hours a week. Therefore, my goal was good performance at a decent price. This became my mantra.

I played with some home-theater-in-a-box products, but was usually disappointed with either the quality of the included speakers or the awkward user interfaces. I ended up deciding to build a system from components.

I salvaged much of what I needed from my old stereo system. This included a nice subwoofer and some similar towers for the fronts. However, what to do about the center channel?

I searched and prodded, but it seemed that everyone had a different opinion. Many recommendations were for products that exceeded $400, which was more than I paid for the receiver. Finally, I ran across a review of the Streem CV-525 on Epinions. "Really,” I asked myself, "Could it be that good for only that much?" The temptation proved too strong, and shortly I had the CV-525 on its way to my house.

It has proven itself a reliable performer. It has strongly projected vocals and effects for everything from "Star Wars" to "Gone with the Wind", NFL games and the Rose Parade. All are clear and clean and have a wonderful feeling of presence in the center channel. I am very happy with my choice."

Charles J. from Loveland, CO | CV-525


"I received the speakers in Dec.04 I was impressed with the appearence of course, The is look very upscale. They are just as the add states,...deep bass and liquid clear highs. Thank you very much. I think you are on way to being a house hold name in many countries. The speakers are very dramatic on movies. And yes, they do humble many a tower speaker! They are very detailed on music. The longer I have them the more I enjoy them."

Harry M. from Hayward, CA | HT-200's


"I bought a CV-525 recently as a completion to my 6.1 system, and it sounds great. This is my first attempt at a real stereo system (previous "system" was a bookshelf mini with two speakers) and I did a lot of research before buying my components. There wasn't a lot of independent reference material and reviews for the CV-525 but the available material endorsed the product. The 5-year warranty showed confidence in quality so I took a chance.

I don't have anything to compare the CV-525 to, but I am quite impressed and very happy with my purchase. The speaker fits in well with my other speakers with regards to color, size (perhaps a bit large), build quality, and audio quality.

I would certainly buy Streem speakers again and would definitely recommend the CV-525 to anyone who asks for my advice. I could probably use a set of 3-way floor-standing units and I've been eyeing the FS-808's!"

Ghislain B. from Salmon Arm, BC | CV-525


"I recently purchased the HT 33 system for my basement home theater. I was concerned that the speakers would not deliver a powerful sound, but this was simply not the case. Not only is the sound powerful, but it is also very clean, even at the highest volumes of my 150 watt receiver.

I used this system to replace an older system. I was going to use the old sub from my other system, but it went out a day before the Streem set arrived. So, I used the system without a sub and was pleasantly surprised at the lows. Adequate for most users I'd say. I did however purchase a new sub to shake the walls.

All in all I am very pleased with the system. All the reviews on the Streem site are the real deal. This is an excellent deal."

Larry C. from Marengo, IN | HT-33's


"First I would like to say that the people at Streem are some of the nices professionals you would want to deal with. I was a little uneasy buying speakers off the internet.With the product information provided I was put at easy. There was never at time that the personnel did not return a call or e-mail in a responsive manner. OK, what about the speakers??? They are GREAT!!! I have done a lot of listening and they do compare with the best of them. Do not think twice, these are very good speakers, and at these prices you cannot do better."
