Meyer sound is good for home theater for sure, but not the best option for music in my opinion. Meyers has one of the more natural balanced sounding speakers for home theater, does not emphasis midband and high end like many other professional sound systems. For music I just feel they fall short in both detail and soundstaging when it comes to music playback. That is because of there design which common with most high PA type speakers that need to project high sound pressure levels for live sound. But yes there not bad sounding and if I was doing a dedicated home theater system would certainly consider them.
