Customer Reviews

perfect 5
perfect size for the application. I thoroughly enjoy listening to my cd's with these speakers.

a bit large but very good.4
i intended to use these speakers for my rears but they are a bit large. if i hadn't also ordered monitor 50's i would have used these as fronts. but they do a good job as rears for my 5.1 system now. very powerful and a decent amount of bass as well. they also look very classy.

I have the Polk Monitor 60s in the front and the 40s in the rear. With this arrangement I hear subtle sounds/notes in music/details I never heard before for the same music I have listened to for years. The speakers have great clarity and sound reproduction and do not sound muddy or have distortion. The bass might be a little low. However I increased the bass setting on the reciever and do not miss much. Maybe in a year or two I will add a subwoofer and the CS2 center speaker. Basically I gained more clarity and accuracy of sound. I might have tried the Monitor 70s for the front if I had to do it all over again and noticed the price I could ahve gotten them for from AMAZON.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great bookshelf speakers

I used to have these as my 7.1 home theater rear speakers and decided to take them out and hook them up to my separate stereo setup with a Consonance tube amp until I bought a pair of audiophile grade bookshelf speakers for it. I was surprised at the quality of the sound put out by these budget speakers. The bass goes surprisingly low and these are very easily driven by my 20 watts/ch amp. I love these speakers. They don't do much in the way of soundstaging but they are an awesome value for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Pair of Speakers,

This is an excellent pair of speakers. I am very pleased with their quality having used them for about two months. I have them hooked up to a Kenwood KR-9600 and they work wonderfully. Excellent highs and lows along with excellent mids. With the KR-9600 I can get these speakers to have a wider frequency range than stated. The speakers work well by themselves and I would not bother to get a sub. I have my computer hooked up to the KR-9600 and I play my cds this way. I can raise the bass even more by doing this. The only downside is the price; however, they are well worth the price. The grills are alright but I took mine off because they look cooler. All in all this is a very good pair of speakers and with the proper equipment one can get them to excede their standard specifications.
