Couldn't be more pleased with the RM20s. Excellent sound quality! Have them paired with Polk's 404 bass and the Onkyo 405 receiver. Can't believe the realism even from older CDs. Polk makes solid products.

Customer Reviews

Excellent Center speaker for the price..5
I used to have the Bose speakers which I used as the center channel also. I was never happy with the sound quality. Recently I upgraded my HT system and decided to change my speakers. This center speaker has a great crisp sound, and definetly enhances the Surround sound.. Highly recommend it.

Polk Audio CSi3 Center Channel Speaker5
Polk Audio CSi3 Center Channel Speaker (Cherry)
In 1989 I was in the position to purchase an upper end stereo system. Well what I thought was an upper end anyway. Alma Stereo and Hi-Fi in Farmington Hills MI carried better electronic products than the locations that also had washers, driers and stoves. This is where I became hooked on Polk Audio. After standing in front of what seemed like a bazillion speakers (some I could afford and others not) I narrowed it down to the Polk monitor series JR5. Then of course came the rest of the package; tuner amp, turntable, cassette recorder/player (no CDs yet).
I packed it all up and was in hog heaven with sound for years. Then it happened the, speakers blew, or so I thought. It turned out to be the amps main channels not the JR5s. This started the rebuilding of my stereo system. I went on a buying frenzy the included Polk Li7s, Yamaha RX-N600 & the Polk Audio CSi3. Since the Jr5s were just fine I am once again in hog heaven. The CSi3 was not a disappointment, delivering wonderful sound in any genre. That it's made in USA is a plus. Music or block buster movies it handles them both with no problem. If you can find the deal as I did from J&R Music and Computer World you will be very happy.

Excellent5
I got this to match my Monitor series speakers. AVS forum users warned me that this was not "timbre matched" and that it might appear to be brighter than the Monitor fronts. However the Polk website says that the Csi3 is timber matched to go with ANY Polk speaker.. So I took a chance and got it from JandR.

The difference from the stock Onkyo is HUGE. On a good source, you will feel the performer in your room if you close your eyes. Very nice finish, majestic looking but large and heavy. Can take a 12AWG wire easily.
Well recommended if you can find them under 200.

Polk Audio RTi4 purchase experience5
My order was delivered as promised. I am very satisfied with the whole process, from purchase - delivery and the quality of the product I purchased was perfect. Brand New POLK AUDIO RTi4

Excellent sorround speaker!

Small but Good5
I listened to these speakers at a store before buying them online. They don't quite have the full sound of a good floor standing speaker, but are very close in quality to my Infinity SM85s, which are excellent. Put a subwoofer with these and they are outstanding. If I had to, I could get by w/ out the woofer. I listened to quite a few bookshelf speakers and this was the best.

Editorial Reviews

From the Manufacturer
The Polk Audio PSW505 Powered Subwoofer is ideal when you have a big room in need of a big, life-like bass impact, that is still tight, precise and accurate. The PSW505 is equally at home reproducing all the subtle nuance of a plucked string bass as it is belting out a rocket's roar. The Polk PSW505 utilizes a shielded 12-inch high-excursion polymer-composite cone with hi-roll surround driver for tight musical bass, as well as slot-load venting that further improves bass response by dramatically lessening turbulence, noise and distortion. This unit's rock-solid MDF enclosure construction with one-inch-thick front baffle suppresses enclosure panel resonance for an even more distortion-free, accurate response.

The PSW505 includes an unfiltered LFE input for use with low-pass filtered subwoofer output jacks, and pro-grade five-way binding post speaker inputs and outputs. This unit features an on/off circuit that automatically turns your subwoofer on when it senses a program signal, and shuts it off within 15 minutes after no signal is present. The PSW505 also features an adjustable low-pass crossover, phase switch and volume control that allows perfect blending with any main speaker, and magnetic shielding for safe placement near TVs and video monitors without causing video distortion. Full-featured and over-powered, the Polk Monitor PSW505 has a sleek, black real-wood veneer finish and is a great introduction to high-performance sound.

What's in the Box
PSW505 subwoofer, AC power code, owner's manual, and registration card.

Customer Reviews

This Sub Rocks5
This sub cranks out some deep base tones. It is rich...pulsating...clean. It really shines with live music. I have been very impressed.

Shake the wall sub5
This sub has some serious output. I'm only using about 30% of the power and thats enough to make the walls tremble as if you're in an earthquake. I seriously recommend this sub to anyone that loves feeling as if they're in the movie they're watching.

does the job well5
I purchased this to fill in the low end of a Polk Surroundbar-50. The room is 20'x40'x11' ceiling and the 505 has no trouble generating the pressure for clear, loud base. Better yet, it was discounted $200 when I purchased the SB50. Furniture-wise it's not the most attractive sub out there but sound-wise I'm completely satisfied.

Customer Reviews

Alan in Charlotte, NC5
Great sounding speakers, very clear and the sub packs a very nice punch. Speakers are very good quality and you will notice as soon as you pick one up by the weight. I did a lot of research before I decided on a set of new speakers and I am very happy with this set. I bought a refurbished set from their factory online store (ebay) for $320.00 - not bad at all.

Great speakers for a decent price!5
We recently finished our basement, and moved our "real" home theater setup down there. We still wanted something in our living room, however, so I purchased these speakers to go with an Onkyo receiver. They are small enough to make my wife happy (even hanging on the walls around the room), and have great sound for their price and size. The subwoofer is oddly shaped and *big*, but kicks out a good amount of bass if you crank it up. I prefer my music balanced, so usually keep it fairly low.

I used the included wallmounts, which had plenty of flexibility for my scenario. I put the anchor in to hang the speaker from, then marked where the "cable hole" is on the bracket, drilled down into the drywall at an angle, and ran the cable into the wall from there. Worked out quite well - cable's not visible at all.

great sounding speakers5
Last holiday season, I wanted to gift myself a good home theater system. Though I started from some home-theater-in-a-box system, I quickly decided I get much better quality by buying a receiver and speakers. Once I made that decision, and set my budget $1000, I started searching again. After reading many reviews at different website, I first made up my mind on receiver Onkyo TX-SR605 7.1 Channel Home Theater Receiver (Black) (I wrote a lengthy review for it, but cant see it anymore at that page - anyway, that is another excellent future-proof buy). Once that was done, I started searching for speakers for about $600. Though an AV enthusiast friend of mine suggested Polk speakers, I first bought a Boston Acoustics Horizon Series MCS100 System Midnight Speakers, again based on internet reviews. That fit the budget well, but after installing it, I found that the sound wasnt great. The bass was boomy, and the surrounds/center wasnt any better either (mine is a 35x15 recroom). So I returned it, and bought this RM6880. I am so glad I did. The bass is just right for my recroom (at half-way setting of the powered subwoofer), and the surrounds and center sound so great. The lows, mids and the highs sound so real to me. I am not sure if I hear every single frequency between 20-20KHz, and I dont care. But trust me these speakers sound so good(as I said I am no audiophile, but I do know when something sounds good).

About the speakers, there are 4 identical satellite speakers, a center and a 10" powered subwoofer. The speakers and subwoofer are 130W peak (65 normal). I can now fill my 35x15 room with a volume setting of 50-60 and subwoofer setting of 50%. At volume level 90 the room literally shakes, so I havent taken it above that.

The only negative about the package was it didnt come with speaker wires (the MCS100 did). If you dont have your room already wired, get some cheap 16-guage wire - I bought (100' Spooled Speaker Wire) and I could feel a huge change in sound quality (compared to some 18 gauge I bought from Walmart).

Also, the subwoofer does *not* have a regular subwoofer jack. This was not a problem for me, as I have the subwoofer connected to the front speaker port of my receiver (following the tips on Polk's website - which, btw, is a must read, regardless of which speakers you buy).

Guess there is no AV setup that satisfies all. For someone who wants to hear realistic sounds (and effects), but who doesnt worry all that much a about a frequency that may or may not be dropped, this setup is great. I wont think of an AV setup for another 10 years for sure :)

Great quality!5
After receiving these speakers in only 3 days I finally got them out of the box. Hesitant at first to purchase them without actually seeing them in person, I did so anyways. I am EXTREMELY satisfied with the actual quality and workmanship of these RTi A7 speakers. Solid, clean, and classy all in one setup. I owned 15" infinity floor standing speakers and I must say these are top notch in quality and for the money, are really hard to pass up. Unfortunately I have not received my Onkyo 605 series receiver yet, so I don't know how they sound just yet. I will do a more detailed review once it arrives.

The Monitor 70 features crossovers that use Mylar bypass capacitors for more detailed high frequencies, five-way binding-post connectors for more secure hook-up options and bi-wiring and bi-amping flexibility, and magnetic shielding for safe placement on or near TVs and video monitors without causing video distortion.

Built for speed, sound and value, the Polk Monitor 70 is a great introduction to high-performance sound.

OUTSTANDING!!!5
After listening to all what Polk has to offer - from the M20 through M70 - you can't beat the M70. It offers all a little of bass, treble and the highs! I started with the M50 with CS1 and the PSW10. Not bad but not enough treble and steady bass. The M70 is an outstanding speaker for the money - inexpensive with an tremendous sound. My set-up M70 / CS2 / PSW10 / with an ONKYO HTR-500. You will be surprise what a 50watt PSW10 puts out. Perfect for all movies and music dvds. And you can't beat FREE 2-day to HAWAII! Thank you!

Polk Speakers5
Polk Audio RT400 and RT600.(speakers)(Evaluation): An article from: Sensible Sound I am amazed by the sound, they are a great buy and I recomend them to anyone thinking about new speakers.

Monitor stands out5
These speakers standout. You need a good set of electronics to back it up. Clarity is excellent. The setup still requires a nice subwoofer, as the speakers woofer is not powerful enough. Onkyo 7xx/8xx allows bi-amp using the rear back connectors, it improves the woofer performance compared to default setup. Iam in a loose-loose situation with onkyo & polk audio. I either loose 7.1 or bass performance. I cant blame polk for that. Iam going to switch to 7.1 and use a sub.

HSU-VTF Sub is more than capable of handling any low frequency. Onkyo double basss is a cool idea, now both my sub and speakers can work in tandem.
