I'm no audiophile and don't have much to compare them to, so my opinion doesn't count for much. But they sure are a nice size and sound great to me.

I have been using the RSL CG3M almost daily in my office stereo for the past 5 months and have become quite attached to them in that time. They do everything a good speaker should and I haven’t found anything I can fairly criticize in that time considering their size and price. The easiest way to describe them is as balanced and satisfying. Transparency/imaging/soundstage are all excellent. High’s are refined and have remarkable clarity that gives it very good low volume performance without having a boosted treble and conveys every bit of detail without sounding unnatural or bright. The mid-range is neutral w/ great tone and gives vocals convincing realism. The bass specs might look underwhelming but bass down to 100hz is rock solid/high quality and sets it up perfectly to blend/integrate seamlessly with a quality subwoofer. This rewards you with full range sound that is more point source than a typical tower speaker (it integrates with my REL HT1003 perfectly). As they say, there is no replacement for displacement with bass and I appreciate RSL choosing a roll off that makes sense for a speaker of this size. Small woofers struggle to produce deep bass and forcing one to do so usually muddy’s up the mid-range and makes for poor real world sensitivity. Despite their 86.5 db rating, I find these speakers quite easy to drive for their size since it never tries to reproduce bass it reasonably can’t. These little speakers seem to hit a sweet spot in size, performance and price. They are small enough to make them blend into your living space without drawing too much attention but reward you with big sound. RSL always seems to do a great job of combining quality components, engineering expertise and thoughtful design choices into a product that represents a best in class value. These speakers are a good example of that. Highly recommend!
