I listened to this speaker carefully for 3 weeks before deciding to exchange it for a better one. It wasn’t bad, but the highs were weak and some of the mid-range notes sounded harsh and distorted to my ears. I was not happy with my choice, so I went back to check the stats to see what made me decide to buy it, and that’s when I realized my mistake; I thought I was buying the larger Polk model that looked the same as this one.

I don’t know if JG’s review was for the RM8 or RM7. I bought these when I re-did my home 7.1 theater system. I have this as a center channel, 2 pair of the larger RM8 satellites for front and side, and a pair of RM7 satellites for the rear. I like the sub/sat types of systems as I don’t loose any floor space using towers. As long as you get a stellar sub, these work amazingly well. The dispersion is fantastic, completely fills our large living room with sound. Whether it’s a Blu-Ray movie or a satellite radio channel, it all sounds amazing.

Just received this little monster yesterday and all I can say is wow! I have 2 Polk Monitor 50s and had an old 3 piece sony set for my center and rears. I wanted to get a smaller set that looked sleek, but more importantly sounded good! I am HIGHLY satisfied with this center speaker! Put in Transformers last night..wow! Ordered 2 Polk RM7 sats for the rears, coming next week!! If you are looking for a small center channel that looks amazing, but ever better sounds amazing, this is the one for you!

Great sound, simple to add or change out. Small and black so it hides easily.
