The sound of this new version is truly a more relaxed (less bright) version of the Miccas. You really do notice the taming of the tweeter which was quite hot for a long time. While decent for HT it could be harsh for near field use. Without any EQ I noticed this new version is much easier to listen to with less fatigue. The detailing on these is good and the soundstage is decent overall, very good for a budget speaker. The bass is one place that shocked me. The overall amount of bass was impressive for the size and cost of this guy. Much like the original these sound like a larger speaker, which is a good thing. I feel these new versions go slightly lower and have a tighter bass sound. Are these RAP/EDM monsters...no, but for anything with normal bass levels they really can surprise. I particularly enjoyed these with acoustic tracks. I put on a few different tracks and this is where they came to life.
What are they good for? - Whatever you want! Much like the original they bring a lot to the table. They are small, give a good overall sound and provide a decent low end at a great price. The toned down tweeter helps them in the nearfield roll for sure.
Can I use these in an HT setup? - You bet! They do nicely in a HT roll. Keep in mind these aren't super sensitive but with an entry level AVR in a small/ medium room they do great. The low end allows you to cross the sub at 80 or lower which is nice for such a small speaker.
Would you get these over the original? - For sure! For a $10 upcharge I would really get these new G2 versions. I did like the originals but not all people like the harsh top end. These address that and give a better fit and finish.
Do these need a sub? - Depends on what music you're into. If you're into classic and acoustic then you should be good without one.
It is amazing how very good these speakers are, taking into consideration the low price.
Build quality is exceptional, the design is practical and convenient for most spaces.
A dynamic sound that will impress most connoisseurs of good hifi sound, and more.

These Gen 2 models address the brightness issue, but are still dynamic to the point of being exciting. These are extremely well-balanced speakers for $100. Yeah, they really need a subwoofer to fill in the bottom end, but all speakers this small do. Add a sub, and they sound fantastic! Sure, you can buy better, but you'll spend a lot of money getting a speaker that is significantly better than these.
I highly recommend these for small to mid sized rooms.

Update, 5-24-24
Give these LOTS of break-in time, they won't be at their optimum until you have 100 or more hours on them. Seriously, it takes that long for them to loosen up. But when they do, they are dang amazing for $99 speakers! While not perfectly flat, they are close, and they only ere n the side of being exciting. Even without a sub, they produce decent bass. But where they shine is to keep the bass knob at ), and play them with a sub. Oh my goodness, you will believe you are listening to much larger speakers. I had these A/Bing with a pair of Klipsch RP towers, and they held their own far better than I ever expected. I like these better than the RBs, and they are cheaper. Micca has done it again!

Update 7-18-24
I've spent a good bit of time with these now, and am still enjoying them very much. The only real flaw I can find in the sound quality of these is that they are a touch fat in the lower midrange. It's not a big problem, but it is there. If using them without a sub, you'll be glad. If using a sub, just back the bass off a bit and it will clear up. It's not a big deal. For $100, these are some of the best speakers you will find. They handle power really well for smaller speakers, and should be very reliable.
Sound is not very good out of the box, however if you have the ability to EQ the speakers they can sound pretty good.
