    The speaker looked as if it was heavily used. It had broken tabs and a cracked board, so the speak didn’t work. The kicker was that the speaker grille was painted already. Not some how anyone had even looked at this speaker to verified it worked.

    The speakers come with the template needed for the perfect size hole and easy layout for your room. The grills are very low profile, attach via magnets, and the grill mesh is very fine with a high-end look. The speakers went in easily and secured to the wall firmly. I used these for my fronts in a 5.1.2 system, matched with the Polk 255crt (center), 65rt (rears), 70rt (ceiling presence) for an ATMOS system. After calibrating my levels I am blown away with the sound! These produce phenomenal clarity in both instruments and voice. The transition from one speaker to the next is perfect, being timbre matched. I couldn’t be happier with the results and I highly recommend these for anyone looking at installing a clean in-wall system.

    I was looking for a quality in-wall speaker with a good price, these fit the bill! We now have a cleaner look in our family room without compromising the sound. Room size: 19 x 16 x 10 tall ceilings. My set-up: Polk Audio: 2 Front Surrounds 265RT, 1 Center Channel 255C-RT, 2 Rear Surrounds 65RT, BIC America F12 Subwoofer. Onkyo TX-NR636. We listen to music & watch movies, both are great!

    Works great in my Movie Room! Great sound! I mounted these on the sides of my 120 screen. I use the Polk 255-RT mounted under the screen.

    I ordered these never hearing them before as I like the sound of Polk speakers. I couldnt be happier with the purchase. I use three of these as the left, right, and center in a 7.1 setup while using the 65 rt model to round out my other 4 channels (if you use this as a center keep in mind it is NOT intended to be mounted horizontal). Im not a speaker snob but I do appreciate good sound and full range in a speaker and these things deliver. When I first set them up I had a setting messed up in my receiver that wasnt sending a signal to the sub and I didnt pick up on it for about 5 minutes (obviously these wont put out the boom you get from a sub but the range was full enough that I didnt notice for a bit). I had originally planned on using some cheaper Polk in-walls but I caught a great deal on another site for Black Friday and convinced myself that if I was cutting holes in my walls I better get something I was not likely to regret. I also noticed that many of the in-wall speakers I had been looking at didnt handle as much wattage as these do and my receiver puts out 140 watts per channel, this further simplified my decision. As stated I dont consider myself necessarily a critical listener but I would be highly surprised if many people could tell these were in wall speakers if they walked into the room blindfolded. Toughest part of the install is running the speaker wire and cutting the drywall, the actual mounting of the speaker into the wall is incredibly simple. Highly recommended after about 4 days of use.

    Replaced a pair of Polk RC85s. Much better sound. As to easy of install, my builder put cross braces between the studs so fitting them properly took a little extra work.
