 Good for the money November 20, 2009
NYC Reviewer
These speakers acutally worked out quite well. I thought for the price and size the sound would be tinny and hollow but they're not bad and have some decent bass to them. They are not for cranking up the tunes but great for back ground music.

br /Also, they have one of the shallowest mounting depths out there which is very important to some people. Well worth the money.
Surprisingly good (and cheap!) November 8, 2009

I was looking for surrounds for my new 7.1 theater in the basement. I spent way too much on the front 3 and sub, so I was looking for a way to cut back a little without sacrificing too much in sound. Fortunately, these low end Polk RC60i speakers fit the bill perfectly. I have heard some other in ceiling speakers in this price range and was wary of what the competition was offering.
br /
br /I was pleasantly surprised when I had these Polk RC60i speakers installed and hooked up to my AVR. Now, although they are rated for 20-100 watts per channel per the Polk Audio website, my AVR pushes 140 WPC @ 8 ohms and the RC60i's handled the extra power flawlessly. Before I had the entire 7.1 system installed, I ran a pair of these as the fronts and was able to turn the volume up quite loudly without any audible distortion.
br /
br /Installation was easy (I bought a drywall "circle cutting" tool from Lowes that made things a LOT easier). The most important steps occur BEFORE you cut the drywall. Plan and mark your speaker locations using the templates as guides. Then, drill a small pilot hole in the middle of your circle and then use a stiff wire bent at a 90 degree angle (an old wire hanger works well), make sure the arms are slightly longer than the radius of the speaker, insert one arm into the hole and "sweep" around in a circle to make sure you clear any unseen obstructions behind the drywall. The only other difficult part is pulling the speaker wire. Thankfully, the cutout gives you more than enough room to stick your arm into the wall to help you fish.
br /
br /All in all, great Polk sound at a good price. What's not to like?
Polk R6 speakers October 8, 2009
B. Small (Corona CA)
I just recently remodeled my garage. I thought it would be nice to add some speakers. I already had a pair of these speakers from my old house. I installed the four in the ceiling. They look great and sound great for the price. Only around 100$ a pair shipped. I had these installed at my old house as rear surround speakers and they were perfect. Especially if you don't intend to crank the volume up to the max, these speakers will produce.
 looks and sound great October 3, 2009
