Does anyone know how much better the Polk R50s will sound, if better, than the Polk R300s? Also if the R50s sound better will they match up well as front speakers in my setup?


I can't help but think I could use the Polk R300s for side speakers and go with a 7.1 setup vs my 5.1 setup. My current setup consists of two R300s front, 2 Polk R150s in the rear, and a Polk CSR center...oh and a JVC sub that does enoug for me.

For a $100/pr. your not risking much, if you like it, you like it, but I would think that another pair of R150 would suffice, unless you need the height of the R300.

Yes the height of the R300 or R50 if it sounds better would be preferable because of the corner location of the tv.

Well I guess that leads me back to my original question or sort of does. Is the R50 better sounding than the R300?

You're going to have to decide that for yourself.
