Unless there is objective data you can use to get an idea of the performance. This means when you read another's subjective-only review you are left to resolve those variables on your own. Additionally, the room will impact the performance and therefore what the listener hears. What one person wants or expects may be opposite of another.
Others know what they want to hear based on their own preference (i.e., some prefer extended bass, some prefer more midbass punch between 120-150Hz, some prefer a response with a dip around 4kHz, etc., etc.).

I then pulled up the Neumi’s BS5 manual here is the link where I saw placement recommendations, and some other bits of information which all gave me the impression the manufacturer cares about how the user listens to their product rather than the old “sink or swim” attitude low-cost products leave you with. Out of curiosity, I went to the product page on Amazon to check them out and liked what I saw. I stumbled on talk of the Neumi BS5 speaker recently in the context of a potential high-value speaker.
