These speakers are relatively pricey for their small size (about 2.5 pounds each and about 5 inches tall) but are powerfull (125 watts) and, hence, can output quite a bit of sound. More importantly, they produce a very wide range of sounds at very high quality. From low drone to high pitch the sound is great.
In addition to their small size they also come with wall brackets that permit easy mounting. Plus, underneath, they have a standard screw mount (like most decent cameras)that permits them to be mounted on to very flexible ball based wall mounts such as the OmniMount 10.0 Black Wall or Ceiling Mount (Ea) Stainless Steel Speaker Mount. This particular mount is highly recommended for this pair of speakers as it permits perfect flexibility not only with respect to wall mounting but in permitting the user to set a very wide range of directions for their speakers.
Due to their small dimensions, weight and high quality sound output, they are ideal for use as wall mounted speakers, especially front high left/right speakers (their ability to accurately reproduce both low and high drones and pitches make them especially useful in this role).

I bought these when I re-did my home 7.1 theater system. I have 2 pairs of these, 1 pair of the smaller RM7, and the center channel. I like the sub/sat types of systems as I don’t loose any floor space using towers. As long as you get a stellar sub, these work amazingly well. The dispersion is fantastic, completely fills our large living room with sound. Whether it’s a Blu-Ray movie or a satellite radio channel, it all sounds amazing.
