The
Box:::...
The
box is relatively large and surprisingly heavy. All the
main specs are on display though, and I can't quite put
my fimger on why, the overall design does look a touch dated.

Outside
of the box it all looks hopeful. A decent sized, front ported
sub is complimented by five dual-driver satellite speakers
with a reassuringly good weight to them.

What
You Get
|
Mercury
sent me a two sets of these speakers, both of which they
have kindly requested we give away in January, and while
this is good news for you it meant I really wasn't at liberty
to go taking them apart to poke and prod around inside in
case I damaged them.
As
you can see below, the satellites are created in two sections
which pivot in the middle. This gives greater flexibility
over placement and makes them less directional.

Satellite
Speakers

The
rear of the satellites features regular guillotine connectors
for attaching the speaker wire and a threaded bush for mounting
them on the supplied wall brackets if you so desire.

Despite
the plastic construction they are nicely styled and don't
look too much like they cost as little as they do. Rubber
pads on the underside stop them sliding around and isolate
vibration.
