They're not bad at all. In the menus I can adjust the bass and treble separately, so after messing with those for a bit, I got I sound I enjoy. Much better than the sound coming from the internal ones. 

 

 
 
I've used them for both TV and active listening and they sound great for both.
 
Like tmars said, they work great for TV based usage.  They are nearfield monitors, so expecting THX movie theater explosions is out of the question, however they do make a whole world of difference vs. internal speakers.  You may have to bump up the volume and change the bass/treble settings, but that's not really an issue.

Can anyone suggest an amp for the AV40s?  Or would it not provide anything whatsover?
