Great value for money, compliments my other HiFi components , sounds incredible and was delivered quickly.

Got it at a price close to Micca MBX42 speakers, which I own as well. I don’t know why some YouTube audiophiles are trashing (esp cheapaudioman) on this but these are a pretty good pair of loudspeakers. Forward-sounding, crisp and clear. Soundstage and instrument separation is very very decent. They really compete well against the MB42Xes in this price category. Very good & and pretty versatile even with not so transparent amps. I would throughly recommend, at this price point. This has impressed me more for both music and movie/TV shows dialogue clarity. No problem with on-axis near field listening. I think they fixed this problem already, as a site on the Net mentioned about listening to them 20° off-axis. Cheapaudioman also was really putting them through the wringer about their “veiled” performance. No veiling, no poor on-axis performance, so to speak, for this pair of mine. Ultra-clear. Paired them with an Aiyima Tube T7 preamp & A07 amp (I have noticed the same model number for Aiyima’s products go well together). Great sound, though lacking deep bass (which was probably the reason for the Monitor XT range). Sound, with this pairing, is what I can consider hi-fi already! Am happy with my T15s!

I bought this to replace an older Definitive Audio centre channel because no matter how I tried to tweak the receiver and other DA speakers, speech still sounded murky. Our older hearing didn’t help either as we have been watching more Netflix, Prime Video etc due to Covid-19. So I figured the best option without spending up on a whole new sound system was to replace the centre speaker. The T30 was had great reviews everywhere and was the cheapest of the 3 options on my shortlist without breaking the bank. Ironically/stupidly it was cheaper to import it via my Prime account (free postage) from the UK than to buy it in Australia. Also the slightly smaller height (1-2cm) to fit the space I had was an important factor for me. For $250 it has proved to be everything I expected and I couldn’t be happier at this brilliant upgrade for minimal outlay. Dialogue is much clearer with better sound overall and extra bass at lower volumes as a bonus!

I just wanted a cheap pair of speakers for bench testing vintage hi-fi amps and receivers, but not absolute junk. These seemed to fit the bill at $70 pair, shipped, as it would cost as much or more to repair the blown woofer on my prior test speakers.
Well, these little speakers are the real deal. They have five-way speaker binding posts so you can plug in banana jacks or go old school with stripped wire. The grilles are removable, which is usually not seen at this price point. While I’m not usually a fan of black vinyl cabinets, these are executed tastefully and I have no problems with the looks at all. They have mounting holes on the backs so you can easily hang them on a wall.
Let’s cut to the chase! These sound fantastic! These are speakers you can listen to all day long, unlike some of the fancy stuff out there that has a long list of specs but doesn’t quite make it in real life. You don’t need a lot of power to play them, although I found that the better the amplification, the better they sounded.
1. Bass is very, very good for not only a small speaker but a speaker in this price category. It took several hours before they really started singing–most brand-new speakers need a break-in period–but I cannot get over the bass response. Now, if you play them side by side with a subwoofer-equipped system, they’re not going to be able to compete; however, I cannot stop listening to them and I have a system with a subwoofer.
2. Overall sound is superb. I can hear plenty of details in my favorite music that I thought only expensive speakers could capture. There’s a good sound stage, highs are not harsh or fatiguing, midrange sounds great to me. Am I an audiophile? Probably not, since I will never spend more than a mortgage payment on a piece of hi-fi gear and I use 12AWG Monoprice speaker cables, but I love music and I listen to it every day.
3. A comparison: I saved up for a pair of Wharfedale Dentons. These are not budget speakers. Originally retailing for $1,000 pr., they can often be had for $500 or less and are stunning, well-regarded speakers. The Polk Audio T15s sounder better. Yep. I’m sure a squad of hitmen from Stereophile (and Wharfedale) are prepping their weapons as I write this, but the Dentons cannot handle bass like the Polks do. Are the Dentons drop dead gorgeous in their veneered, bomb-proof cabinets? Yes! Do the Dentons sound good? Yes, again, but I cannot listen to the Dentons very long before I put something else in their place. They simply cannot deal with bass in a pleasing manner and yes, they’ve done as much breaking in as they’re ever going to do. Please understand that I’m not knocking the Dentons; they are so well-made I want to cry, but the Polks are more enjoyable to listen to.
4. So, what’s the deal? What’s the catch? I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop, so let’s get it over with…
There’s no catch that I can see so far, except that these are mass-produced, black vinyl speakers. They are not exotic and I doubt Stereophile is going to review them any time soon. They aren’t going to fill a concert hall with thundering bass because they’re small bookshelf speakers. Some audio snob types are not going to even bother to listen to a pair because they don’t cost enough. Well, their loss is our gain, my friends, because if I had known about these speakers before buying the damned Dentons (and some other fancy speakers) I could have saved $400.
5. Not enough bass for you? No problem. For $130 shipped, buy the Polk Audio PSW10 subwoofer. I am a card-carrying bass freak (every single amp and receiver I own has the bass knob maxed out and I usually have loudness engaged as well) and this thing is a damned marvel. It was easy to set up and yes, it will work with old amps and receivers. You can adjust how much or how little bass it puts out, and for once in my life I DO NOT have the bass turned all the way up–that’s how powerful this thing is. You can set it on standby mode, where it’s “asleep” until it senses a music signal, then it turns on and does it’s thing. That said, the T15’s sound so nice on their own I’d hold off on the sub and judge for yourself.
I have heard many different speakers over the years, from Bose 901s to Martin Logan Prefaces to Polk Audio LSi9’s, and these are absolutely the best value I’ve ever heard in speakers. They are cheap enough that you can buy two pairs and have a speaker in every corner of the room. Bass is handled very well and they sound good enough to be the main speakers in a two-channel hi-fi system. Look at how many people have given these speakers two thumbs up! I cannot stress how wonderful it is that Polk Audio has provided such an amazing, low-cost speaker to the general public. I highly recommend these speakers. Just remember to let them play for a few hours and the better the amplification, the better they’ll sound.

You won’t go wrong in buying these speakers. After l hooked them up and began playing my music they literally blew me away with the great sound coming out of these speakers!!
Highly recommend them to everyone!!

I’ve had these speakers for a little over 2 years now and I couldn’t be happier. I have a Marantz NR1200 receiver and they sound great. Very punchy without rumble. Great clarity, even at higher volume levels. I love the removable mesh front, the look of the exposed tweeter and woofers is great for my space.

The Polk is value for money. When I got it, it sounded muffled. Finally, I removed the grille and moved it forward closer to my sofa and the soundstage improved dramatically. However, I feel that it is underwhelming but for its price, it is a good buy. If you want loud sounds, it is better to look somewhere else.

These speakers are a complete and total mutiny of the senses. For the price they absolutely surpassed my expectations. They are not perfect, but they come close.
For both music and home theater use, they must be paired with a subwoofer (or multiple subwoofers) to get good sound. However if you’re not that picky they sound quite good even without a sub. Their highs are bright, their mid-range is solid, and their lows have a surprising amount of power considering the size of the speakers. The very high treble is particularly emphasized with these, something I personally love, as it tends to give everything a very high quality sound. However keep in mind that these will only reproduce the quality of audio fed into them. If you send them a mediocre-quality signal, you will get very mediocre sound. If you send them a high quality signal (via HDMI, coaxial, etc.) you will get a very high quality output. Even video games that I play using an old fiber optic cable sound incredible with these speakers (especially Skyrim!)
For the best sound proper speaker placement is essential. The tweeter should be at ear level, or as close to ear level as possible. If this is not possible, the tweeter should at least be below ear level, never above (unless you are using them as surrounds, in which case it should always be above ear level). I have used these speakers extensively for my front speakers over the past month and a half, and I can confidently confirm that when the tweeter is at (or at least close to) ear level, the sound improves dramatically. I originally had them up too high, which did still sound fairly good but not great. The speakers must also be placed sufficiently apart (22 – 30 degrees to the left and right of the listening position for the left and right speaker, respectively).
While these sound great with their grills on, I eventually ended up taking the grills off and like the sound much better that way. Your preference might vary, however. The imaging capability of these speakers is magnificent, especially with the grills off.
But yes it is true, they do have some minor flaws, the main one being that every once in a while a certain type of sound will be sent to them that they struggle to play. This only seems to happen with lower-quality signals, however, such as playing music directly from my phone to my receiver, so it is not really an issue for me. When this happens though it results in some brief hiss / static. I have watched about a dozen movies with these and I believe it only happened once during one movie for a split second.
The other potential issue is that the mid-range / woofer driver on them can only handle so much, unless you don’t need a lot of volume. This is another reason that I recommend pairing them with a subwoofer and setting the speaker size for them on your receiver to small. I have these in my bedroom and they can get very loud with no problem with the conditions just mentioned. However if the room you use them in is large and you need a lot of volume they may not be loud enough. 100 watts RMS per channel is substantial for a small room but only goes so far for anything bigger.
My experience using a graphic equalizer with them has had me not boosting the treble much at all because it is already nice and clear, lowering the mid-range slightly (perhaps a matter of personal taste), and boosting the bass somewhat significantly (again I advise only doing this when paired with a subwoofer).
Despite some of the minor imperfections, I still give these 5 stars because truthfully, I do love them. The sound quality is outstanding for the price, especially when they go on sale for $50. In fact they sound so good with the rest of my setup that for weeks it was hard to tear myself away from listening to them. I went from smaller satellite speakers to these as my fronts and they definitely have more “oomph” to them, and movies sound so much more theatrical than they did before. The sound is improved so much that I plan on getting the T30 center channel that goes with them, as well as another pair of these for my surrounds in the near future.
Overall these speakers are somewhat sensitive while simultaneously being robust. As long as you take the time to set them up correctly, “protect” them with a subwoofer and the right settings on your AVR, they are capable of producing sound that is loud and powerful when needed, as well as soft and gentle when quieter moments arise, all the while having a deliciously high quality sound to them. Set them up correctly, and they really, really shine.

The Polk T50 is really light and that’s part of the problem. It lacks bass because of it. The resonance body is missing. It also has no treble though. The mid frequencies are pretty clear, but overall I cannot recommend this speaker. It doesn’t provide any excitement whatsoever. A fairly old and cheap Sony T-40 from 20 years ago performed better in comparison.

I currently use a set for my surround sound system as rear speakers.
Sharp sound that brings power when needed.
Very happy with purchase !
