Polk LSi 15's

One thing Beernut, if you liked what you heard in your friends system you'll probably like it as much of better (if your using equal or better electronics) in your own system. As far as the speaker being laid back, yes it is. Although, it surrenders no loss of detail in comparison to any of its competition. It simply is the opposite of bright (see B&W speakers) and has more of a musical sound to it.

HIFI CHOICE mini review.

Thanks Guys-well I did a total about face and am going to try some Maggies. I've had a curiosity about them and a pair was made available so I gave myself a little xmas gift. We'll see how this latest experiment plays out.
Happy Holidays,
Beernut

I listened to these speakers the other day and they do sound really good and I'm amazed that people do not talk about them on these forums more. http://www.onhifi.com/product/polk_lsi15.htm

ive had a pair of lsi-15's for about a year now and would agree that there are better speakers out there just not any that i know of at there price. ive been very satisfied with them, and find that when ive upgraded other items in my system these speakers show off the upgrade nicely.proving ,i think there not getting the respect they deserve.
