5 out of 5 stars I don't know what the last review was about!   August 7, 2006

Polk Audio is one of the leading speaker manufacturers in the world. They have been for decades. The only way the speakers could possibly sound muddy is if the system you hooked up to is inferior, or the speakers are not hooked up properly to your receiver or the components are not connected properly. There are many receivers these days that have secondary hookups for the audio components that do not give the true sound intended. You just need to make sure you are hooking up to all the main inputs. I have these speakers hooked up in my Master Suite bedroom where the wiring is coming from my basement theater. They sound Awesome installed in my ceiling rather than the wall. Hope this helps!

For the price I would not recommend purchasing the Polk RC55i speakers. They do not deliver the the degree of brillance one would expect in speakers in this price range. The tones, at best, are muddy.

Good sound quality for the price. You get what you pay for and these speakers were worth the price.

They're great speakers. Wonderful sound. They're driven by an Onkyo TXSR605 receiver, and the combination is perfect. I'm not an audiophile, just someone who wanted to build a nice theater.

My only complaint, which is very minor, is that the tabs on these speakers are not as good as the ones on comparable Bose flush-mount speakers. The tabs on Bose speakers that I installed 2 years ago positioned themselves and held the speaker against the drywall perfectly. These tabs have a tendency to "catch" on the speaker housing, and then they never squeeze the drywall. When you install these, make sure every tab is free and clear before you tighten any of the screws. Otherwise you may get 3 or 4 of the screws tightened down and realize that 4th or 5th tab is messed up, and you'll have to start over. You might want to "help" the tabs get into position with a flathead screwdriver or a butter knife while you screw them in. Once you get them positioned and tightened down, the speaker is solid and doesn't vibrate or move or anything.

I installed these speakers as rear surround speakers. Installation was easy with the included templates to size the holes. They sound great and well worth the money!
