5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Speaker   June 19, 2008
D. Foley
These speaker delivery great surround sound. I used them for all four corners of my 5.1 surround. Installation was very easy, but just make sure that before you cut out the drywall that you make sure that you aren't over any part of a stud. I first cut a small pilot hole the size of my hand, then positioned the template to make sure the template wasn't covering a stud. ALSO, make sure you have about 1/2 inch clearance between the hole and a stud so that the mounting brackets can turn and have something to grab on to.

The instructions say to use a paperclip to pull off the screen from the speaker. Rather that poking a hole in the cloth under the grill and risk poking the speaker, I just carefully used my utility knife and gentlely pryed off the grill.



5 out of 5 stars Love this   June 18, 2008
K. Kobilis (FL)
I absolutely love it. I paired this with with Polk audio: CS2 center, 60 towers, RC85i wall souround, and RC80i in ceiling for back surround. With a large living room and cathedral ceilings, and an ONKYO SR805 to push them, these speakers provide an excellent home theater/music experience.
CONS: Make sure you get a subwoofer seperately (not really a con, more of a requirement)



5 out of 5 stars awesome value   April 28, 2008

Running with my Denon AVR888, polk CSI 3 center and PSW303 sub. Sounds great. Highs and mids are clear and crisp. Adjustable tweeter helps to aim sound towards user if seating is not center of soundstage as in my case.

There couldn't have been a better experience installing these speakers. Very easy to install. I had all four speakers installed within an hour. The sound is rich and dynamic. I am very happy with the value and performance.


5 out of 5 stars Audiophile Sound with these In-Wall Speakers   November 29, 2007

I purchased four of these in-wall speakers and very pleased with the high end sound reproduction. They compliment my new 5.1 Polk Audio system that is pure Polk Audio perfection. These speakers blend into the wall so nicely. The installation is fairly basic and the sound is full and rich that you would expect with tower speakers that use up considerable floor space. I would absolutely recommend these High Quality in-wall Polk Audio speakers. Polk Audio and Amazon.com are a winning combination.
