“[Due to their omni-directionality] sound quality is maintained regardless of where the listener is located in relation to the speaker.”
“Sound quality was uniformly excellent. The system sounded like fine quality bookshelf speakers driven by a superb amplifier with a high performance subwoofer … except it was outside, where I could look at the bluffs across the river.”

"The NEAR LB8 manages to do
what so few outdoor speakers do: deliver exquisite detail and gorgeous imaging,
with plenty of bottom end and no audible distortion, without the need for a
subwoofer. Installation is also a breeze due to the speaker's innovative
bracket-mount design."
