FAQ:
Q: What is the overall size of the speakers?
A: The speakers are 10 inches tall, 7 inches wide, and 4 inches front to back.

Q: Can they be used as L/R front speaker in 7.1 with TL2 being satellite?
A: Ideally all front speakers should be the same for optimal performance. Using the OWM3 as left/right main would work, and probably sound OK. Lower frequencies (>120hz) would be handled by the sub/LFE channel with a powered sub.

Q: How do these speakers do for a stereo? Is there enough bass or does it require a subwoofer?
A: These are very nice speakers, but because of the size/design, they are more of a satellite speaker with decent midbass and highs. For a dance studio, you will definitely need a powered sub with these speakers.

Q: Does it require an amplifier or does it have an inbuilt amp?
A: It requires an amplifier.

Q: What is the total frequency response?
A: The total frequency response is 80 hz - 25 kHz.

Q: Do these come with the articulated pin shown on the second picture or do I need to buy those separately?
A: The articulated wall mounts do not come with the speakers, but many applications do not require special mounts as the specially designed cases will mount at many different angles.
