Other Notes: "It is always a satisfying event when a reviewer finds a product that sounds better than he expected. Such was the case with Sony's ES SS-M9. Neutrally balanced, with well-defined imaging, a clean treble, and truly excellent low-frequency extension, this is obviously a loudspeaker with a "mind behind." The design is thoroughly worked through, from the alignment of the twin woofers, through the rigid, optimally braced enclosure, to the well-implemented crossover. The M9's flaws are minor, outweighed by the things it emphatically does right. To those who might wish for more bass "boom" I say, "Hi thee to more live concerts." To everyone else, I recommend they check this big Sony out: it offers more than you might think at a price lower than you'd expect. The M9 deserves a high Class B rating in Stereophile's 'Recommended Components.'" - Stereophile
