    "Great sound for the size and money" on by ecollado

    Pros: sleek design, clear sound, easy hookup

    Cons: highs could be too bright sometimes

    Summary: I purchased these on sale several weeks ago and feel I got a great deal. These speakers have a great design that is easy to integrate into most home theater systems. I hooked them up to an Onkyo tx-sr603x and the sound is amazing. Very clean highs, and sufficient bass for movies and music. If you're expecting to get the same sound for music as w/ tower speakers then stay away from these, but if you have an average sized room, and know how to play around w/ your receiver's equalizer, these will probably be good enough. They are very loud, and clear even at high volumes. I've watched over a dozen movies w/ these already and I keep getting amazed at how good they sound. The satellites are clear and bright, and the bass rumbles my entire house. I guarantee that if you have a good receiver, and the patience to set the system up right, you'll be more than happy. Enjoy

    "quite good sound overall for the speaker size" on by harrisonj

    Pros: precise sound
    good sub
    nice look to the speakers
    rectangular sizing of the sub is nice

    Cons: bit tinny sound on highs

    Summary: Impressive sound for a non-high-end system. Works well for both music and movies.

    "Great! Balanced tone with Great Subs!" on by ufo1922

    Pros: Sound, tones, subs, everything!

    Cons: none. might be a little pricey

    Summary: got my RM6800 3 days ago. today finally hook up with my Onkyo 503S, when I put my fav Yanni cd in, wow, i was amazed. im speechless because the sound came out from it just incredible, the sound is very natural and it's loud!. dont even bother put it in a large room, it could fulfill the need of space.

    wonderful, thats the word i can say now.

    anyway, got these before X-mas for 650 dollars at frys, dont buy online, cuz these easy broken. get from local stores.

    "Great Product for the Price" on by ensquares

    Pros: Stylish satellites, Warm Sound, good for music and movies

    Cons: Speakers not as compact as Bose AM6

    Summary: Speaker System: Polk Audio RM6800
    Reciver: Onkyo TX-SR503
    TV: Sony 30HS420

    -Wonderful set of satellite speakers, Nice and stylish
    - Warm sound
    - Great for music and movies

    Purchased the Bose AM6. Disliked the quality of music, had a flat sound to it. The Polks have a fuller and warmer sounds making it an alround player for both music and movies.

    "Great value." on by dwarnock

    Pros: Rich sound from small speakers

    Cons: none for the money

    Summary: First, I am not an audiophile so maybe not as picky as some. I replaced a set of 4 foot tower speakers with these. They sound better. I was worried that a 65 watt sub wouldn't have any punch, but it does. I had made a DVD of a local fireworks display and the booms were like being there, vibrate your chest. The construction is first rate, made from cast and machined aluminum. No vibrations here. I bought these after reading the CNET reviews. They were right on. Yes, you can buy better speakers than these, but you will have to pay a lot more. I got these for $540. To move up you'd be way over a grand.
