I am beyond thrilled that this is the speaker system I selected. I was replacing some older Ohm Walsh2's and the R500 was about as large as would fit well in my room, and I am just in love with the sound.

Build quality, amazing sound for the price level, EVERYTHING about them. They look so awesome in my room. And I appreciate how nicely and easily the grills pop on or off with the magnetic fasteners... don't have to worry about finicky fastener posts or clips breaking over time.

Not as much of a "con" but the reality of a speaker this size... a subwoofer will help with the bass for some types of music, but I wouldn't call the bass lacking in any serious or detrimental way.
The sound and look excellent. The room is not big and they still need to warm up a bit, but they sounded out of the box beautifully both with lossless streaming and with vinyl. Base is nice and smooth. I am still adjusting them to the room, but so far no complaints.
Stunning bass depth for a speaker with 5 1/4" drivers. - Excellent resolution and detail. These speakers define well vocals, explosions ,ect when you listen through the HDMI-E ARC- or Optic of the TV, but really shine on the whole spectrum no matter what kind of music from Enya to Def Leppard.
I give 5 stars for the overall value and positive qualities mentioned in other reviews, but these are my least favorite of the Reserve series speakers that I've heard (r200 and r600). I bought these to avoid buying stands for the R200. But even more than r200, they are very sensitive to positioning.

Needs a lot of space to get the best sound
My ~20-year-old Canadian towers have a generally nice/open sound, but recent ARC Genesis measurements confirmed my experience of top-end brightness. I was also jaded with the "square black box" look.
