I'm quite pleased with the results. The ROI on this combination has exceeded my expectations by a large margin. YMMV of course.

It is a practical compromise though. Two are really needed for optimal results in all regards from a sweet spot. That's why any full range stereo speaker has woofers. 4 even maybe if you want the right bass throughout the room, not just the sweet spot.
