Polk Audio RTI A1 Bookshelf Speakers Excellent January 4, 2009

I ordered my speakers in Cherry Wood and when you open the box the color of the wood shines right away. These speakers are very well made with provide a thundering base response for such small speakers. I will be slowly building a system so I had a tight budget.I looked all over the web and even went in to Best Buy and the only speakers they had at a similar price were all made with plastic and had little depth in their sound. Either too much bass or too much treble. These speakers are just right I could not be happier with the quality of these speakers on all levels and feel that when you factor in the price you cannot find better speakers.

Ordered from Amazon and speakers arrived promptly as advertised. Did lots of shopping and Amazon price was very competitive to go with their very good communication on order information and shipping details. I'm using the speakers as rear surround and they really enhance our Home Entertainment system.

I've owned these speakers for about a month now. I am very happy with the sound and the finish. The bass is a little thin, but no more so than any other bookshelf speaker this size. I think these are a good value.
Great sound at a great price October 30, 2008

These speakers sound great and look really good, too. I can tell they are made of quality materials, as they feel very solid. The speakers are very clear and I love watching movies even more now. They provide adequate bass, and are very clear in the higher frequencies. Even my wife said that these sound much better than the JBL satellite speakers I was using. Polk Audio made a great, affordable product.

i have had these in just over a week and with the hours i have played them i would say that i am entering the break in stage. right out of the box they sounded a little bright, now they sound a little more laid back and smoother. most reviewers on here pair their speakers with a receiver and a sub. i would suggest that you use neither. in stereo i would suggest you use more superior hardware to get more from these gems,such as a good amp,a preamp and a good cd player,or turntable. now for my review.i listened to the polks well into the late hours of the night each night. as my preamp and amp got warmer the polks fell deeper into the sound stage as the sound stage got wider. i turned the lights off and i was conviced they were full range speakers.from the sometimes thunderous bottom end to realistic midband and the smooth highs.as the hours went on i plunged deeper into my cd collection,and the sound stopped comming from the speakers and were placed in locations in the air between and the outer edges the speakers. when i kept on looking at each speaker it did not appear that sound was comming from them. this has happened to me before on a larger scale with my legacy signatures (130lbs each beasts , a little over five feet tall and almost 4grand more).will downing's pleasures of the night (cd) is my usual reference cd for male voices and his voice came so close to me in that center stage i know i could have slapped him if i had reached out my hand. maxwell's cd embroya is my bottom end test cd and wow the gut they had was tremendous. i continued to listen to more cds from jazz to some classic r&b and classical and they got better and better. i love'm. and by the way did i say they were a very good looking pair of speakers.
