To be honest, moving away from the monkey coffin format was a mistake.
Certainly a lot of them were downright bad and maybe these C-V's fall into that category, but competent "monkey coffin" speakers reveal how ridiculous a lot of modern gear is.
The amplification requirements and crossover gymnastics required to get reasonable output and extension from cute little bookshelf and slim tower enclosures with 5" and 6" woofers are absurd, and ultimately you need to add subwoofers anyway if you hope to match the kind of full range audio that a big monkey coffin with a 12" or 15" woofer can handle with ease.
While we may all laugh at the Cerwin Vega name, imagine if (insert your favorite modern audiophile speaker builder here) decided to really bring their resources to bear on an affordable modern speaker in this form factor.
I have the Cerwin Vegas' spiritual descendants, [the BIC RTR-EV15s which are similarly sized with 15 inch woofers that are somehow even more visually obnoxious](http://bicamerica.com/showpage.php?brand=3&type=15&spkrID=120
). Don't worry, they come with grill covers that hide the cones.
They are not bad at all. BIC claims 24Hz-20kHz +/- 3dB and my measurements agree, as long as you play around with positioning a bit. They are not the last word in resolution, but they aren't bad either. They are tonally correct and have dynamic range that more modern audiophile gear can only dream of.
Ironically, given their "please blast some Slayer" appearance, they are great for reproducing classical music with massive (DR17 in this case, I think) dynamic range like this recording of the Firebird Suite with output levels and bass extension approaching an actual performance. That's not something easily accomplished with modern audiophile-targeted gear, at least not for less than the price of a pretty decent car.
They sound great blasting Slayer too.
