Consumer review (newegg.com)

excellent mid level towers

I use an entire Polk set up in my office which include a pair of 60s , a pair od 40s for the rear ; a cs2 in the middle and a 10 in sub by polk .all bought at the same time . the room is quite small (10×12 ) but with a little adjusting the set up...

they need a sub of at least 10 inches. I tried an 8 in sub w/250 watts (class a/b amp) it was not enough .a 10 in worked just perfect .the sub drivers were moderate price. other than low end reinforcement , the 60s are great

Last YEARS(if used right), had mine for about 5 years now, bought 2 for $150

-Great For Movies -Great For Video Games -Great For Music (just not too loud for too long) -Great For LIGHT DJ-ing (seriously invest in DJ designed speakers for this purpose tho...much better). -Great For Crisp and Overwhelming Sound quality (pair...

-Amazing, crisp sound quality -Bass is really good considering the speakers are only 5.25 -Used it at a house party once, very loud twitters, could barely hear anyone talking on the dance floor

-at that same house party the DJ pushed the system too hard and blew one of the tweeters(bought 1" replacements of diff brand online, very cheap fix, sounds the same), at this same house party the dust cap area on several 5.25 speakers melted on the...

Polk always performs

After months of daily use they have shown me that the breakin processes really makes a difference. Out of box sound was good but now they have FAR EXCEEDED my expectations at any price point. The transformation from day one till now is truly amazing. I...

Price, Sound Quality, appearance, Warranty all factors on the purchase.

Just a bit top heavy so the potential of the tower tipping is relevant BUT not an issue YET

OK Speakers worth the sale price of 100

I gave 5 stars because I paid 100 each. So to be clear, for the !00 dollar price, then 5 stars. If I had paid more, the number of stars would have been different. But how can you go wrong at 100 each

Average sounding

none to mention, you get what you pay for

Very good bang for the buck.

Overall, cannot beat this at this price point.

Clean highs, mids and lows. No problem with bass. I am not using a subwoofer.

Gets a bit muddied at high volume. I am driving this with an Audiosource amp102. This may be a factor.

Beautiful

Still have my eye on the RTiA7s but I'd definitely recommend the monitor 60s

I'm slowly putting together a Polk Audio surround system. Got 2 of these on sale, and I'm loving them. I'm driving them with a Sony STRDH750(basic AVR with plenty of power and features), and paired them with a CS2 for the center. The CS2 was...

They may sound too bright, but that can be fixed by a little tweaking in your settings.
