I like the thought of wood speaker cones, but how will they sound? Or is this another looks nice but thats it.

I listened to this a few weeks at Good Guys. Pretty cool looking speakers. It sounded really good for a small system.

I've read a couple of reviews which commented that they lived up to the hype. Would very much consider buying the JVC system if I had a small room which was in need of sound.

Doesn't Grado's top-of-the-line headphone use a wood chamber? I'm not sure of the exact correlation of the headphone units to these drivers, but I'd like to hear them.

The only thing I'd get this JVC system for is if I were an executive at some big company and I needed a system to put on my desk together with a 15" TFT monitor or something.
You can't get any decent volume out of this thing at distances over 1m, so it's pretty useless for watching DVD (yes it has a DVD player built in) unless you're sitting on top of it.
I guess it sounds OK for what it is but it's not very useable.
I believe it's a 3" driver, so it's really small.
