 Rating:  - Surprising sound for the moneyI just purchased 2 pairs of these to be powered by a Marantz 2285, replacing junk Sears speakers I've had since the mid 80's. I was initially concerned that a 2 way speaker with no large subwoofer would compromise the highs and lows. Let me tell you, these sound fantastic. These Polks can take all my Marantz can give and then some. The only drawback (if you want to call it that)is the speakers need about 5 minutes to "warm up". Bass is true and rich, mids and highs cut through very well, if you want ... Read More Rating:  - Great speakers for the priceGreat speakers for the price. Able to handle everything I have thrown at them. Those that say they have "no bass" I say WTF????? I have had to adjust my bass level down on my receiver. Rating: - Great Sound! Great Price!After purchasing a 46" Samsung flat panel, it quickly became apparent that High Def video only delivers part of the home theatre experience. Several home theatre audio options were explored (HTIB, Bose 321, High End and Low End), but after scratching the surface, they were either inadequate or out of reach price wise.

The bass is fine, too, with accurate reproduction of concussion and strings. I bought these with a center speaker, but have no sub-woofer needs, since I listen to jazz and classical and am not looking to thump myself out of the room. I give them a 4 instead of a 5 only because I figure there must be something better out there that costs a lot more. Rating: - Mucho bang for the BuckThe Polk Monitor 50 tower speakers are just terrific for the money. The highs are clean and well defined and the bass is substantial without being overbearing. Polk definitely has another winner on it's hands with these. Some reviewers have complained about weak bass, but I don't see that as being true. Unless of course you're a head banger and you like your bass seriously and artificially augmented. Then, just add a sub-woofer. These are very nice sounding speakers for a really terrific price.
