@ paraneer, @ ZD542, Hi, I do not feel bad that our Best buy stores here do not have the magnolia stores or design centers in them, Here in mobile, al,, we have one entry level high-end store eany way!, I laugh at the entry level store consistently,They are very pompas!, believe they have the best of every thing!, very funny to me, because I bought everything I have over the telephone, out of state!, the name of the store is called, Look and Listen,, My whole system is well beyound what they carry or can get!, so no, I do not feel bad about the best buy stores. Happy listening!
Polk Audio
I picked up a pair of Polk Audio RTi -A1 compact speakers recently and was surprised at how big they were on scale and bass. The guy I bought them from had been using them as surrounds in his AV system and when I said they were going to be used in a stereo set up, he seemed puzzled that I would want to use them that way.
Anyway, I'm hugely impressed by how the Polks handle rock music especially - they're hooked up to a Krell KST-100 power amp. They've got a lot of weight in delivery, apart from the bass and scale. I've gotten similar results from small speakers in my room, but they've been much more expensive ....
However, what puzzles me is the negative vibe people seem to have about Polk. "Oh, they used to be good once upon a time but are crap now," is what someone in the distribution industry remarked.
This is the first time I'm listening to Polk speakers. I don't see any justification for his remark.
Anyone else here has a good experience with Polk's current range? Seems great value to me ...
