Excellent value, good for all but audiophiles September 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am using these speakers currently in a stereo music setup but intend to switch them to a home theater application. They deliver excellent midrange and midbass but I find the soundstage a little lacking and that there is not much "air" in the sound - probably the result of the tweeter rolling off at higher frequencies. Overall it has the characteristic Polk sound which is mellow and not fatiguing. I recommend them heartily to users who are looking for value rather than perfection. They are well built and attractive with decent quality binding posts with the ability to biamp them via a second set of posts.
Sounds great August 29, 2008 I bought these speakers from J&R and I'm pleasantly surprised how good they sound great value for the money.
Great speakers July 14, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
These speakers were better than i expected. They produce good deep tones that you wouldnt expect out of such a small speaker. Im only running them out of a stereo 200 watt amp and they still sound very good. Also when i hooked them up to the tv the sound was also very good. They were the first Polk speakers ive gotten and would consider more after these.

Speaker is larger than I expected. Beautiful Cherry Finish. Speaker works better than I expected. I haven't really had a chance to run it on a wide range of music.
