"Polk Audio RC60i In-Ceiling / In-Wall Speakers (Pair, White...That will be your memory of installing the Polk Audio RC60i Series In-Wall Loudspeakers...They're good for the price, but they only have mid-range responses...These are good though if you need something that looks nice and stealthy, and sounds nice..." read more »

"The Xigmatek HDT-S963 heatsink is a unique thermal solution because the German thermal engineers who designed it, made its three copper heatpipes come in direct contact with the CPU itself...If you take the Xigmatek HDT-S963 in hand and flip it over, you'll see an aluminum base with three long grooves cut into it...There is no bulky copper base plate, no heavy copper heat spreader, instead heat is conducted directly from the core of an AMD or Intel processor to three 6mm diameter copper heatpipes...If the approach Xigmatek has taken here works, and Frostytech will be able to give a definitive answer on that in two pages time, expect to see this technique expropriated by every heatsink vendor from Thermaltake to Coolermaster come fall..." read more »

"The Klipsch RF-82 is a high-performance floor standing tower loudspeaker designed with high-end materials and slender shape that offers an exceptional combination of sound and style...The Klipsch RF-82 is designed with a Tractrix Horns technology that includes improved throat geometry for a more genuine, lifelike sound combined with a professional-grade 1-inch titanium diaphragm compression driver with a large ceramic motor structure to provide a unique combination of precision, clarity and effortless power...The RF-82 measures at 24.1cm in width, 41.3cm in depth and 110.7cm in height (with stand) and it weights in at 30kg..." read more »

"Efficient,balanced,natura l sound none I've used the pair of Polk Audio Monitor 70 speakers for eight months now.These are very efficient.They can be driven with a modest 20 watt receiver(don't expect audiophile performance with such little power,though)and will also accept up to......" read more »

"Overall frequency response is quoted as 35Hz – 25KHz, with a power handling capacity of 150 watts...The look good, are relatively efficient (can be driven by a 20W/channel amp) and sound great..." read more »

"The retailers also highly recommended them but i was only able to find them in sets which included a center speaker, plus the ones in the set were half the size for about $600...So far i have experienced zero distortion, these combined with my PS3 and movies on Blu ray - just blow you away - Highly recommend these speakers I ordered this one as a "cheaper" speaker and also a more expensive Boston Acoustic speaker...iv'e been a polk fan for years, i was looking for a good surround speaker and polk has done it again..." read more »

"Their top of the line LSi series features two floor-standing models, the LSi15 and LSi25, the LSiC center channel, LSiFX bi-pole/di-pole surrounds, the LSi subwoofer and two bookshelf models, the LSi7 and LSi9...Cracking open the box of a pair of LSi9 bookshelf speakers, the first thing that I noticed about the speakers was their distinctive smooth black high-gloss finish on the top and rich cherry wood sculpted side panels...High-quality dual (bi-ampable) gold-plated five-way binding post inputs allow for an array of wiring options and have a solid feel that lets you know you are getting a good solid connection...In some applications, a single LSi9 could be used as a center channel or as a rear center..." read more »

"Excellent sound quality for the money, affordable and impressive system...Cherry laminate looks and feels cheap...Our system consisted of a pair of Monitor 60 towers, a pair of Monitor 30 bookshelf speakers for the rear surround satellites, a CS2 center channel and a PSW125 powered subwoofer...The Monitor Series is anchored by a pair of Monitor 60 towers, which stand over 3 feet high and weigh 31 pounds each...The Monitor 60 also includes a front-firing bass..." read more »

"Going from the RTi8 to the RTi10, you lose a 6 1/2" mid/woofer and add two 7" woofers...A basic recommendation for ordering any speakers from Fry's is to make a separate order for each speaker...I own the RTi10's and drive them with a 50lb...Stepping up to the RTi10 or RTi12, I highly recommend you add a separate two channel amplifier to your existing receiver to get the most out of these speakers (unless of course you have a flagship receiver..." read more »
