Fine for Home Theater April 21, 2007
C. Antonelli (CT, USA)
I wanted to build a home theater system on a budget and didn't want a home theater in a box due to the input limitations and ugly speakers that take up too much room. So I went with 4 Bic M-50's in walls, a Bic DV52CLRB center channel, and a Velodyne VX10 subwoofer. I'm running it all with a Sony STR-DE685 receiver. It's a really nice setup for home theater and I'm very satisfied overall. Movies in dolby digital are amazing. Music on the other hand is a bit flat although if I tinkered with the receiver settings I might be able to get it a little better. Like I said I did this on a budget and the Bic-M50 are really dirt cheap.

The one thing I learned was to do your best at matching all the speakers with eachother which is why I went with four of the exact same in walls and the center channel that Bic says is matched to the M50's. You can always tweak the power going to each speaker in the receiver settings to balance them but there is no need to if they are matched out of the box. If I had a few more bucks to spend I suppose I would have gotten the Bic Venturi VI-38 in walls instead for about double the price. I probably would have gone with M60's but the price on the M50's was significantly cheaper when I bought so I went with those.

The mounting brackets for the M50's seem to be a pain when you do the first one but once you get used to them the rest are a piece of cake. They are rock-solid and will be totally vibration proof. When I first got them I had wished they had the simple flaps that turn out and screw down like some other speakers on the market but these are much more secure than those. The screws to clamp them down are very long so I suggest using a small cordless drill to spin them just about tight and then finish them with a screw driver by hand.

Overall these are good speakers. Be warned that they won't sound as good as they can until they are mounted in the wall and you have them all hooked up. I was excited to test them and hooked one up just out of the box and thought it sounded poor. Unfortunately you need to cut holes in your walls to really test them out!

By the way, if you go through all the trouble to hook up a home theater system, make sure you have the ability to watch your programming in either Dolby Digital or DTS when available. To do this, your source is going to have to have it which can be either a dvd or a tv channel that supports it. Most HD channels are in dolby digital. Your dvd player or cable/sat box is gonna have to hook up to the receiver by either an optical cable or a digital coaxial cable. Both are cheap on Amazon. The best the old fashion composite (red/white/yellow) are gonna give you is the old Dolby Pro Logic which is no where near as impressive as Dolby Digital.
