This review is from: Polk Audio RM95 5-Channel Home Theater System (Set of Five, Black) (Electronics)
These are great speakers for those looking for a smaller set that creates a quality sound. As with most electronics, the amount of satisfaction you will find with these speakers depends on where you are coming from previously. My previous speakers were an older set of Yamahas that, when I bought them 10 years ago, I thought were great. These Polk's blow those out of the water. The setup took awhile (cutting the new speaker wire, positioning, etc.) but once they were in place I put in a Blueray movie and whoa! I was hearing so many more of the subtle nuances of the movie that I wasn't getting before. They also sound great blasting out music through my Ipod. I am still using the old Yamaha sub, and realize that I need to upgrade that as well to match the quality of the speakers.

Each speaker comes with a small stand that can be used to place the speakers on entertainment furniture. They also come with mounts for the wall, including the center speaker.

My only complaint is the small size of the clips for the speaker wire. I found that the speaker wire can slip out if you have significant downward pull on the wire. A simple rearrangement of the wire fixed it, but I would expect a $500 product to have better clips. This may be a deal breaker for some, but for me the other positives outweigh this negative.

Overall, the quality of sound, sleek look, and compact size have me sold on these speakers. Those looking for a compact set for their home theater would be wise to upgrade to these.
