Big sound doesn't have to mean big, floor-hogging speakers. Boston Acoustics is making that point loud and clear with its new SoundWare XS 5.1 Surround Speaker System.
This package will introduce the SoundWare XS satellite speaker, which features a 2.5-inch woofer and a 0.5-inch tweeter. At less than 4 inches each, they will be the company's smallest loudspeakers to date. Five of those will be coupled with a powered 8-inch, 100-watt subwoofer to complete the budget home theater system.
"Our new SoundWare XS 5.1 loudspeaker package is sure to energize the entire category, offering consumers a high-value combination of style, sonic performance, placement flexibility, and space efficiency," says Joe Stinziano, senior VP of sales and marketing for Boston Acoustics. "The super-compact satellites are perfect for integrating elegantly into any room location and décor, and the matching compact powered subwoofer delivers the deep bass response necessary for true cinematic sound."

Each of the satellites feature the SoundWare's signature polyhedron shape, making them perfect for mounting. The package includes two articulating mounting brackets. Whether installed in a corner or right in the middle of the wall, each one will match your décor, thanks to "paint-ready" cabinet surfaces. The SoundWare speakers also come in a slightly larger indoor outdoor version for rocking the backyard.
The new XS 5.1 system's powered subwoofer looks cool, but is also compact enough to stuff into any corner or behind furniture. Sure you want to show off sound, but that doesn't mean it needs to become a fixture on your living room floor.
Shipping in July, the $499 SoundWare XS 5.1 system will be available in both black and white. Look for a full review of the SoundWare XS 5.1 system on Big Picture Big Sound later this summer.
