I can hear all the movie dialogs now. I had 2 Polk monitor 60 for front ; they are really good, but I would miss conversation while watching movies ; I was wondering what is missing. Then one of comments I read that movies 60% dialogs come through...

Great sound at low volumes (as others have stated). Crisp and handles power without distortion. For the price, this was a great buy. I use this center, 2x polk monitor 70's, and 2x polk vm-10's, in my back room, to listen to vinyl. I am happy with this...

It is a big center. I didn't check the weight and size of this prior to receiving it. If you don't have a lot of space for a center, don't buy this one (I was able to make room). If you have small l and r speakers, you setup will look strange

Sounds amazing. Audio is full and crisp. Fine details can be heard even at low volume levels, unlike the cheap 5.1 speakers I originally purchased when I got my receiver

There is a loose wooden piece inside the speaker. I heard something rattling around just as I was getting ready to set it up on my entertainment shelf. Shining a flashlight inside the port revealed a wooden block with glue on one side, which obviously...

The sound is fantastic out of this thing. It produces voices very well. That was the main reason for adding the surround sound was to separate the sounds and still hear the voices

Size. Look at the measurements, this thing is not small. If you are coming from a surround sound in a box, this is probably going to be MUCH larger than what you have. I would still get it, just be aware

I have a 7.1 set up driven by Pioneer Elite VSX 44 receiver. This completes my 4 in wall Polk surround speakers, 2 Polk Monitor 60 floor standing speakers and a 10" Klipsch subs. I have the Samsung 65 curved 4k TV. Took me a while to pull the trigger...

Could not replicate the finest highs like my Bose speakers in my media room does. If you wanted a flush or cleaner look in your set up, this speaker may not be for you due to its size. I solved mine by mounting it over the TV using Pinpoint center...

This speaker is amazing. It looks great and feels great and sounds amazing ; I live in a Condo and I have two Klipsch F-30's powered by my BI Amped Denon AVR x3000 ; I live my life with the remote in my hand and my thumb on the volume down button...

I don't have ANY cons to report but just to mention, it's a monster in size.. Man this thing is big.. No joke

great presence and sensitivity. great price

lacks a tad in the highs department for music

clear vocals and great projection

none

Blends well with the rest of the Monitor II series. Clear audio for movies

Fairly large. Not really much of a step up from the CS1

Awesome sound and clarity / It's Polk Audio quality and service / entry level audiophiles, great sound and low price
