(More customer reviews)Remember when you could purchase REAL stereo speakers within a moderate price range that would not break the bank? Remember what it was like to listen to near audiophile quality speakers with the bass woofers built into them? Many an audio enthusiast will try to get that rich bass sound for their music by using small tiny satellite speakers and a separate sub. What they notice, like I did, is that there is always a slight delay or an out of tune quality between the sub and sats. The Cerwins have the bass woofers built right into them and therefore the woofers are tuned in time to match sonically with the mids and tweets in the speaker cabinets; something that ONLY the most expensive of separate sats and subs can do...In today's so called audio market, slim and bass-less tower speakers are all the rage and norm. You have to fork a few hundred to a thousand dollars more for that separate subwoofer----which most of today's subs will work for theatre digital applications but fall short for musical applications !...Cerwin Vega has always made affordable and reliable mid to hi-fi speakers. They fill that niche that no other audio speaker company cares to. With other name brands you either have an extreme limited choice between their bottom end cheap stuff or their esoteric and elite lines, but nothing in the middle for those on a budget to enjoy near audiophile high quality sound...
No need to fret my friends!In comes the Cerwin Vega E-712. The CV E-712 is one of the best audio speakers on the market (have been for a number of years with different model or badge-letter-numbers by Cerwin Vega such as HED or RE series). Their strength lies in that earth shattering bass producing woofer (you don't need a separate sub--period).The crisp high frequency tweeters are also something to marvel over. Some will claim that the tweeters on a CV speaker are too bright or sharp(that's what those handy-dandy black knobs on the speaker cabinet are for---to fine tune the sound and cut back or increase the highs and mids). You must remember that Cerwin Vegas were first widely used as dance club or DJing speakers.Their car audio line uses the same loud and sharp sounding principle to compensate for automotive engine-environment road noise.The real test is when these are used in a digital surround theatre set up ! The lows will make your stomach and chair rumble. The sound quality is colored and a tad exaggerated.This means that these are not warm or neutral sounding speakers like audiophile-grade speakers which tend to have a more subtle and bland sound for those used to crisp sharp highs and boomy bass. Mids are not accurate, but rather well produced.
The bottom line is that I'm glad I chose these speakers for their awesome sound quality which for me translates into a fun and hair raising experience from using with a turntable to listening to my favorite dvds !!! Does that behemoth Cerwin Vega speaker cabinet prove itself that it's not just for aesthetics? You better believe it! It serves it's HEAVY purpose/function extremely well...They are thickly insulated and constructed so well that you hear no speaker box resonances. I have pesonally seen the inside construction to these and even the cross over network is built pretty rugged---now that should be music to anyone's ears and earnings !

Play it loud and proud with Cerwin-Vega's E-712 three-way floorstanding loudspeaker. With its massive 12-inch woofer commanding house-rocking authority in the bass department and an amazing 98 dB sensitivity, you're guaranteed dynamic, full-range audio for your favorite music and movies.
The speaker uses three separate drivers optimized for specific frequency bands. In addition to the diecast aluminum cone woofer, the E-712 includes a lightweight, low-mass 5.25-inch midrange cone that renders smooth, clean vocals, and a balanced dome tweeter that offers high sensitivity with protection from thermal overloads. The drivers combine to produce an impressive 28 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and support amplifiers pumping up to 300 watts per channel.
The E-712 is sold as a single speaker, but excels in tandem with a second E-712 for stereo applications. Listeners can also team the speaker with other tonally matched Cerwin-Vegas to build a 5.1, 6.1, or 7.1 home theater setup. Add a powered subwoofer to the mix for the ".1" low-frequency effects and you're ready to rock, though the E-712's 28 Hz low-frequency rating delivers plenty of bass even without a subwoofer. As an added bonus, a complete surround sound system will add depth and clarity to such multichannel audio formats as SACD, DVD-Audio, and DTS-CD--none of which require a TV.
Additional features include front-panel acoustic contour controls that help optimize the E-712's output for specific tastes and listening environments; a multi-density cabinet that helps reduce audible distortion and improve tonal accuracy; and a tuned bass-reflex enclosure that produces a full 3 dB bass boost at the tuning frequency. Each E-712 measures 14.75 by 33 by 13.75 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a five-year warranty on parts and labor.
