Big, bold and punchy speakers for less than you might expect.

These chunky units deliver big, bold sound without breaking the bank, and while they could do with a little refinement in the EQ settings, they're seriously impressive for the price.Our experienced team dedicates many hours to every review, to really get to the heart of what matters most to you.Buying speakers can sometimes feel like a bit of a lottery, especially if you're trawling the listings looking for something that might suit your needs for less.

Connections and controls are found on the rear of the right speaker unit, including RCA connectors, an optical input, aType-A port and an HDMI connector for HDMI ARC connectivity. A traditional RCA to 3.5 mm jack cable is provided for hooking up to your PC sound outputs or a TV output connection, along with a 3.5 mm jack to jack cable for linking the two speakers together and a wall plug power adaptor.

Immediately I was impressed. The sound was punchy and rounded, with a good amount of detail thanks to some silk dome tweeters that kept the shimmering high cymbals and Maynard James Keenan's soaring vocals present in the mix, while the 4-inch main drivers delivered weighty slabs of thundering bass and chunky guitar riffs that sounded pleasingly guttural and head-bangingly powerful in equal measure.

They're all useable, and none sounds bad per se, but"Movie" provided such a powerful, pleasingly"scooped" EQ that I tended to keep it in that mode for most uses. I would suggest that the Music setting could do with some tweaks, or perhaps to add some options in between, but it was Movie mode that really allowed those rumbly drivers to shine.

That's not to say they're not capable of subtle, though. The beautifully glassy violins on First Aid Kit's"My Silver Lining" shine through brightly on the D80 without becoming piercing, while the folky bass and layered vocals all sit nicely together in the mix without losing detail or sounding over-boosted.
