(4 out of 5) by G. Simpson on Feb 19, 2009 (NY, USA)I've been very happy with this sound system, although I've been using it in conjunction with separate front speakers in a 7 channel system. The extra satellites help enormously when trying to fill dead zones in the room.

Great sound from a little system--no bass speaker incl.
(5 out of 5) by John A. Pascucci on Aug 12, 2007 (new york)No bass speaker included but still worth the money. Makes my hd dvd player sound incredible. Great sound for the price

Buy the RM6900 package - and get a subwoofer for free
(5 out of 5) by Andrew Ehrensing on Feb 28, 2007 (Chicago, IL, USA)I have the Harmon Kardon AVR7300 receiver with these 5 speakers- and the sound is unbelievably awesome! The range and sound clarity in the three fronts is excellent. The mids and highs are crystal clear.
The mounting brackets could be better (can't fit any gold plated connectors with the mounting brackets), however the set of universal binding brackets was minor for the trade-off in excellent sound quality.
If you are thinking of buying the famous black cubes with the famous black sub from a company that makes a wave radio... think it over. I used to run those cubes and although they are nice and small, these Polk speakers blow them away! I couldn't be happier.
Currently the price has dropped on the RM6900 package which includes a subwoofer for free. The included subwoofer isn't the best, but replace it and sell the old one on Craigslist or Ebay and you'll save some money on this package. The RM20 and RM6900 packages include the same front, rear, and center channel speakers.
