Overview Specifications Included Products Recommended Accessories Reviews

Featuring a bipolar design that combines two identical panels of a 4-inch woofer and a 1-inch Neodymium balanced dome tweeter, the Fluance AVBP2 tackles the needs of surround speaker design in a usefully different way. The angle of the speaker panels allows audio to radiate indirectly - resulting in extremely convincing surround ambience - while the in phase wiring of the bipolar design is able to provide all the localization needed for soundtracks with directional surround effects. The more demanding you are of surround sound, the more you will appreciate what the AVBP2 has to offer.

With high reproduction qualities in music and home theater, the AVBP2 is perfect for use as dedicated rear channel surrounds. Only premium components - such as Neodymium tweeters - are used in the production of this system. The Neodymium balanced pure silk dome tweeters provide a smooth and accurate projection of the high frequency portions of the signal, contributing to a pure listening experience.

ERIC G	Out of the box...AMAZING!!! Added these to my Fluance AVHTB+ Surround Sound Home Theater 5 Speaker System. First off... once again the packaging was perfect. Secondly, the sound is incredible!!! There is no way in the world I would spend 300 to 400 on surround speakers! Trust me these will get the job done hands down. I just replaced the Rear Surround Satellite Speakers for now but I plan on doing the 7.1 but I dont need to...HUGE difference from the smaller Satellite Speakers. I did bi-wire my whole set-up which is pretty easy to do and well worth it. Obviously, you should invest in a decent sub since you will save on the set-up anyway.	06/03/2012

Mike C	Nice quality, look good on the wall and perform very respectfully considering the price and my compromised placement with one side of my entertainment area open and not providng the reflection necessary for bi-polar speakers. These are used as R/L surrounds in a 5.1 system, with a nice denon amp. Small drivers so they lack bass and run off at 125Hz. I had to crank the sub rolloff on the sub as high as it goes at 120 hz. I have the AVHTB+ and use these as a replacement for the R/L surrounds. Overall very happy, but you will need a sub to be satisfied with this system as base is weak for anything other than a very small room..	28/02/2012

Steve S	I give these speakers top marks. I have them set up for surround L&R and the bipolar design gives great spatial presence. The high quality drivers produce crisp, clear detailed sound.	06/02/2012

Vincent V	Added these to my AVHTB 5.1 system to complete my 7.1 system. Originally was just gonna swap out rear speakers for these, the sound difference is amazing. These don't have to be aimed like the original surround speakers, sound radiates from all directions. After having the bipolar speakers hooked up I decieded to run more wire in the attic and finish my 7.1 system. To be honest just swapping the rears out sounded awesome, not much different than the 7.1 setup. Definitely worth the $100 they're charging, very well made. If you have the AVHTB speakers threes are a big improvement over the included rears. And if your surround can do 7.1 its a no brainer...go for it...you won't be disappointed.	18/12/2011

Jim H	I bought these after hearing a friend's Fluance AVHTB+ Surround Sound Home Theater 5 Speaker System 5.1 system. I was planning on an upgrade from 5.1 to 7.1. My speakers were all Wharfedale, but Wharfedale no longer makes the bipolar surround I wanted, so I thought I would try these as my side surrounds until I could find something that matched my Wharfedale Vanguard based system better. I was blown away! These inexpensive little surround satellites timbre matched very closely with my Wharfedales and they sound amazing! The ferro-fluid cooled neodynium tweeters are sharp and precise without being etchy, scratchy, or fatiguing. The mid-range is smooth and solid, full without being bloated. In my room the base from these rolls off at about 125, so I did have to raise the crossover point on my sub to 120. But everything blended smoothly from there and I am super pleased. Could you use these without a sub? No. But so what, that's not what they are intended for. If you appreciate the qualities that a good bipolar design brings to the surround positions, then you owe it to yourself to give these a listen. They may or may not match the timbre of your existing speakers as well as they did mine, but for the price they are simply a must listen! My search is done, and these will remain on my walls for a LONG time.	24/09/2011

Marco A	I own a pair of AVBP2 .They are SICK ! the best money ever spent. Solid materials , stable wall hookup and sonic wise great.Buy with no regret .Enjoy them like i am....	30/05/2011

Roy K	Received with in days of ordering them. Love them! Powering them with my Onkyo 706. Great speakers......	13/04/2011

C.J.	I've owned a pair of these as my primary living room speakers, hooked to my main AV system. I must say they have out-performed my old Bose speakers in every aspect! Highly recommended.	27/01/2011

Eric	MAN I WANT TO ADD THESE TO MY FLUANCE AV-HTB+	19/11/2010

Ken W	I've had these speakers for well over a year now, (I have 3 of them for a 6.1 system) and they are absolutely superb! After a relatively short break in period of regular use, they will yield hours of unparalleled listening pleasure. They handle just about anything you throw at them; the imaging is clear and dynamic. They are well constructed, and the value you get for the price of these babies is off the charts. I cannot recommend these speakers highly enough. I'm waiting for them to come back in stock to I can add another one to create a full 7.1 system for use with a Blu-Ray player (most likely the Oppo BDP 83 when it's released). Look no further than these speakers if you are in the market for surround speakers...you will not regret it!	26/04/2009

Mark	I have owned my FLUANCE speakers for 4 yeras now, Why drop all that money on Bose, when Fluance is just as good if not better!!! Try them out for yourself! I have four of these surround, two towers, center channel and 10 inch sub, 7.1 surround sound for games, movies and music. You won't be dissapointed.	03/10/2009

Gilles C	Best speakers price related that I ever heard. Excellent performance quality is all in the package. You are a loud to pau more, but before you do it think about Fluance	22/04/2009
