"Shane review the XTZ Sound home theater setup. XTZ Cinema M6 Cinema S5 Cinema S2 Atmosphere and 1 x 12 Edge subwoofers."

"The M8 Tower and M8 Center with the eye-catching 6-channel array of tweeters provide an ideal dispersion with ultra-low distortion. Combined with the S5 dipols and powerful SUB1X12 subwoofer the XTZ Cinema set is a real eye-catcher for rousing home theater sound at the highest level. + THX-Ultra licensed+ strong high-tonal array+ enormous dynamics"

"The developers at XTZ know their compatriots - no wonder the XTZ Cinema series offers so much power dynamics and the proverbial bang for a buck.- Raphael Vogt+ Very neutral balanced sound+ Extreme dynamic reserves+ Ingenious subwoofer+ Flexibly combinable"

"The XTZ set masters the art of playing both super-detailed and extremely loud which is not possible with many affordable systems.- Thomas Odeltorp"

"Perfect spatial illusion and acoustic depth were conveyed by the S5 dipole speakers which proved to be ideal partners for the M8 front channel team. Together with the S5 dipoles and the powerful 1X12 subwoofer the XTZ Cinema set deserves a real recommendation for rousing home cinema sound at the highest level.- Michael Voigt"

"While Ive saved it for the end I did notice that the XTZ setup is at nearly $5500 expensive. XTZ sells direct to consumer though and with a generous home-trial period free return shipping and the Cinema series quality of componentry construction and performance theres value here nonetheless. Cost aside XTZs Cinema is a very impressive home theater setup. I cant see recommending it for a music-first layout but I doubt that most such system- builders would be interested anywaythough this Swedish layout is still a very able music reproducer. For a serious projection room install based on an acoustically transparent screen a genre that tends to be fairly price-insensitive anyway I think this system is just about ideal.- Daniel Kumin+ Very dynamically capable with high power handling high output+ Solidly integrated front stage+ Impressive subwoofer output and extension+ Flexible tripole surround speakers- Slightly forward tonal balance (but perfect for behind-screen placement)- Pricey"

"You can probably tell Im in love with this system. If you think Ive got carried away I can only suggest you have a listen yourself. At this price few speakers emulate the feeling of sonic immersion quite like the XTZ. The additional Atmosphere speakers make the array a good match for modern setup. 5.1 fans shouldnt ignore the core models either. We say: A superior-sounding movie-mad speaker system offering seriious value for money. Plenty of installation flexibility and solid construction. Not the prettiest of cabinets.- Danny Phillips"

"Phenomenal - Award Strong performance from Sweden! The XTZ Cinema 5.1 set can be noticed very positively in the home theater operation. Closed soundscape lively effects high SPL and tremendously strong bass performance by the world-class active subwoofer are offered. In music mode the services are very respectable the total harmony could only be a little bit higher. The high-quality finish and the and sophisticated technology are highly commendable. For the offered price is fair no doubt. - Carsten Rampacher AreaDVD+ Closed densely atmospheric sound thanks dipoles+ Very high SPL+ Extremely powerful active subwoofer with no weaknesses+ Uniform clean staggered front soundscape+ Subwoofer with two EQ modes for appropriate adaptation to space+ Very good separation of all sound elements from the speakers+ Fair price- In music the overall harmony could be a little bit higher- Optik not for everyone"

"Highly Recommended - Award Overall when assessing the sound quality and how well these XTZ Cinema Series speakers work together I am struggling to think of any negatives at all. The sheer soundscape they are capable of producing and the way they are so well matched to create a cohesive soundstage that just melts away and does so on a few levels makes you wonder why you would want the new 3D sound formats. There are a few occasions when you just hear a well put together speaker and sound system and things makes sense and you are transported away without noticing. That is what the XTZs were capable of doing for me in my system and it was the cohesive nature of the performance that nailed it for me. They go loud they are dynamic and they can get in your face when required. - Phil Hinton AVForums"

"Score: 6/6 Speaker system of the year - award This speaker system is a winner. It offers first class sound quality and dynamics in a price range where we thought it was impossible to get this far. Its simply awesome. The largest subwoofer is incredibly powerful - and thats an understatement... - Sven Bilén Ljud & Bild"

"Score: 10/10 Recommended - Award XTZs gobsmacking 5.1 speaker system is packed with innovation is beautifully engineered and sounds fantastic and best of all it costs much less than youd normally pay for a system of this calibre. - Danny Phillips Trusted Reviews"

"Score: 5/5 The XTZ multichannel system convinced by its unusual design excellent workmanship and most importantly - excellent sound in a home cinema environment. The asked selling price is extremely fair which is why we want to give our Preistipp logo. - Jochen Schmitt hifitest.de"

"Editors Choice - Award Very evocative sound intelligence of this system wrapped with slick design integration which is well proven in delivering several different sonic aspects Its the reason why we are in urge to review it immediately. - WHAT HI-FI"

"Never once did I hear the SUB3X12 make an untoward noise no port chuffing no complaints from the drivers no audible distortion no abnormal sounds. As capable as the SUB3X12 proved to be the speakers actually stole the show and boy did they ever play their part beautifully. This is a different level of detail here folks. So revealing - and flat out pleasant sounding - was this system that I spent far more time enjoying music than I did anything else. Its a rare treat for me to hear sound reproduced at this level... The XTZ Cinema Series is a sonic tour de force a complete system that encourages you to dig deep into your movie and music collection to unearth hidden gems long since forgotten. Why Because now you will want to experience everything in your library all over again. The SUB3X12 is a beast and can certainly hold its own but for me the real stars of this show were the speakers. I honestly cant think of a single legitimate complaint about the M6 mains or S5 surrounds and with how picky I am thats saying quite a lot. If you want a system that will simultaneously get your friends tongues wagging and their jaws dropping then XTZ Sound has something you need to hear- Jim Wilson Home Theater Shack"

"Score: 4.5/5 ...we certainly recommend that you take a closer look at the current XTZ Cinema Series offerings for dynamic performance in a modestly-sized package. - Marshall Guthrie Audioholics"

"The best thing the XTZ loudspeakers do is to disappear and never remind you that youare listening to loudspeakers. Youll find music and movies both havea natural sound with an ease of presentation that makes the presentation live in your room. The satisfying XTZ presentation characteristics will be perennial reminders that you chose well. - Doug Blackburn Home Cinema Review"
