Polk Audio T50 Home Theater and Stereo Floor Standing Tower Speaker (Single, Black) – Deep Bass Response, Dolby and DTS Surround

Nice neutral sound, a bit on the pricey side
I stream music to the TV while I am exercising and the quality of the audio from the TV is lacking. These Polk speakers are connected to a Nobsound G3 amplifier with the TV sound being fed through the line input. This setup is by no means be considered high fidelity, but I am quite pleased with the quality of the sound these speakers are producing with the setup.I had tried some other speakers in the sub-one hundred dollar range and was not satisfied with the audio quality. While the overall sound quality is dependent on the source audio, the amplifier, speakers, and the room acoustics, other speakers I tried did not sound as balanced as the Polk’s. Most of them felt like they were biased for bass and was not very pleasant – especially when the music was not very bass heavy. That is not to say that these speakers are bass powerhouses. The frequency response dies down pretty fast at the low end, but whatever bass these T15’s produce are not distorted.Polk presents these as meant for front and rear speakers in a 5.1 home theater system. They do have slightly more mid-range response than high or lows, and would probably do well in that role. A subwoofer is a must if more bass is needed.Overall build quality and styling is quite nice and on par with similar products from brands like Klipsch. They work well for what I need and hold their own quite well as bookshelf speakers. That comes at somewhat of a steeper price for what you get. I think these would be a phenomenal deal around $100 price range. While Polk is one of the well known older speaker brands, there are new competitors at this price point and are worth a look. Ultimately the final decision is up to the listener to decide as different people have different taste in sound. I am quite happy with these speakers

Budget price not a budget sound !
I’m using these speakers in an 11×12 room. I bought two sets, two for the front and two for the rear for surround sound system. Also purchased the polk T30 center speaker to complete a 5.1 system. I’m using a Klipsch 10-in subwoofer front firing. And a JBL ma510 receiver. Sounds amazing! Couldn’t be happier. Was trying was trying to do the room on the cheap without sacrificing sound. And it works awesome, sounds amazing!

Great set of low end high bang for buck speakers… Remember to order two as they’re sold seperately… Love the sound though recommending adjusting bass etcetera… Look pretty decent too. Enjoy.

So I moved to a new apartment and was setting up a home theater sound system in a relatively large room. Initially I decided to just go for a big mainstream brand Soundbar + Sub. Bad idea – the sound quality of these mainstream systems just really isn’t great. Sound quality in movies was very ordinary with the vocals being drowned out by music and SFX and for the music it just sounded flat. So I returned that system and decided to do the sound properly – but still wanted to keep it on a budget.I picked up the Pioneer VSX-932 on a special and 2 of these babies and wow what a difference it made. Even just with a basic 2 speaker stereo setup – basically the same ball park price as the Soundbar I started with – the quality just insn’t comparable. These have such a greater depth of sound and wider range. Watching movies now there are sounds I previously never even noticed show up clearly on these speakers. Dialogue is clear and they have stronger base then the previous setup – even without the addition of a sub. Clarity across the whole range is so much better and music also sounds much better – with a richness and warmth that was completely absent on the sound bar.For those on a budget – these really do the job! Will likely build mine out with sub and eventually the full Polk 5.1 setup.Highly recommend – you will struggle to find anything else with as good “Bang for buck”

Its super build quality and sound. Am really surprised
