rdodevSpeakers are typically measured in an anechoic chamber, something that doesn't really translate much into how your room will affect it. Most speaker manufacturers will quote a tolerance of their frequency response spec, pioneer did not do that with this speaker. An excerpt from the audioholics review:
" The SP-EBS73LR bookshelf boasts a frequency response of 50Hz-20kHz, where the SP-EC73 extends the response down to 45Hz (numbers are TBA on the tower). Unfortunately no tolerance was provided for these specifications, which decreases their value. However, both should dig deep enough to integrate properly with a subwoofer. In terms of electrical specifications, it should be noted that both the bookshelf and center speakers are rated to be 4 ohm nominal, and they both feature a below average sensitivity of 85dB w/ 2.83V at 1m (or 82dB w/ 1W as they are 4 ohm speakers). Taken together, those numbers indicate buyers would be well advised to pair these speakers with solid amplification, especially if you plan to use them in larger rooms and/or at higher listening levels.

Side Note: These are designed by Andrew Jones so I highly doubt they will be crap. He comes from KEF, TAD, Pioneer and now on to ELAC.
