Just an FYI.
BestBuy has the Insignia bookshelves on sale this week. They have been on sale for $39 in the past (long ago). However, at $59/pair these are still a good pickup

My black Friday purchase was a 37 inch Insignia lcd tv. I love it the detail is pretty darn good.
Thanks for the heads up.
There's a few web sites out there dedicated to crossover and cabinet mods for these.

I really liked the Insignias at $39. At $59, they're still a great deal and I would still choose them over most of the budget hi-fi offerings out there up to $300, but there are some surprising values in sub-$100 bookshelves these days (Athena LS100s for $99 from Audio Advisor, Infinity Primus 152 and 162 for ~ $70-90 from Harman on eBay) that best both the Insignias and almost everything in and above their price range.
For sheer fun and engagement, the Insignias are a real treat. I plan to throw a set outside in a quasi-weatherproof area and see how long they hold up.

Go listen to some real speakers than get back to us. I have heard them my friend bought a pair I had to walk out of the room when he started cranking them up. I am not saying they are a bad speaker it's just that there are better ones out there.
