Speaker Okay - Polk Support Terrible

Sound seems okay thus far. However, the support from Polk is horrendous. If you need to talk to Polk be prepared to be on hold for hours. I have purchased 10 Polk speakers and now regret buying every single one of them.

Ridiculously awful.

So disappointed in Crutchfield and in Polk, both brands I have used and trusted. But in my un-insulated interior wall this speaker is completely unusable. The echo and balance is so bad you can not understand voices. I have tried every setting of the speaker itself and in the two months I've had them installed I have used them once. I will have to spend a great deal more now to modify the cavity to create a box-like enclosure before I can use my home theater. If they needed this enclosure as desperately as they do it should have been part of the speaker or at least a ready made accessory I could buy. I have owned other in-wall speakers and never had this sort of problem. Calls to Polk and Crutchfield yielded no solutions.

Awesome Sound

I bought these speakers for a new home my wife and I are building. We are probably about 4 months from actually installing them in the new home. For this reason, I hooked everything together to 55" TV and blue ray player to make sure of the working condition of the components. Sound awesome sitting just 4' apart. There is no doubt that this equipment will give us exactly what we were looking for . Thank to Cole for all of the help in putting together this system. Items purchased together: 1 Ea - Denon AVR Model S64OH 1 Ea - Polk Audio In-Wall Dual Center Channel 255C-RT 2 Ea - Polk Audio In-Wall Daul 265-RT (Front R&L) 2 Ea - Polk Audio 6-1/2"; 70-RT (Rear R&L) 1 Ea - Klipsch R-100SW 10" Powered Sub-Woofer

255C-RT

I hooked these speakers up before installation, and they sounded really nice. When I inspected them before installation, I realized that you need 14-3/8" between studs to install them horizontally. Well, for 16" on center studs, there's a nominal gap of 14-1/2". In the real world, that nominal dimension can be affected by a warped stud, stud installed a little crooked, or installed off center just a bit. So, 1/8" of grace just isn't adequate for some real world situations, like mine. I didn't want to gouge out the studs for additional clearance as there are other speakers that could fit my bill. Helpful hint: If you do try to install this speaker horizontally with 16" on center studs, probe your walls first to make sure there's clearance. I used a stud finder and probed with a finish nail. That saved me from cussing.

Great speaker. The voices in movies stand out clearly and are the movie experience is awesome. We have them paired with 2 Polk Audio 265 RTs in the front and we can't say enough about how nice it is to enjoy a movie in our home theater. Easily installed. Template works great.

Easy installation using the screw tabs. Had to continue screwing longer than I expected, but follow the instructions and it tightens right up. Pivoting tweeter helped since my installation was about 8' AFF. Much better high/mid range and vocals than my TV speakers and pairs great with the receiver and sub I have as well. Looking forward to being able to purchase some matching Polk front sides and back surrounds.

I bought this as part of a complete system for my new home. The speakers disappear on the wall especially if you take the time to paint them. They do take a little tweaking to get them to lay flat, just gently work the edge of the frame till they lay flat.

Great speaker for a wall mounted speaker setup. Easily fits in an existing stud bay - just make sure your TV is centered over an open stud bay if you want the speaker to be centered underneath the TV. Haven't put it though all the paces yet, but so far it sounds great, and it definitely looks great. The magnetic cover is a nice touch.

Bought these speakers based on my knowledge of the company, the Crutchfield advisor's recommendation, and pricing. We paired the speakers with the Onkyo TX-NR828. Great center speaker at a good price and size. They are truly wonderful speakers and I can see how couch potatoes are created.

Powerfully Crisp Center Speaker

This center speaker is fantastic - I'm not an audiophile and I haven't listened to lots and lots of speakers, but when it comes to center speaker clarity, from sports announcers to zombies to music listening, this speaker delivers. I personally don't understand what makes an expensive center speaker an expensive center speaker, but I'm satisfied that I didn't skimp on this speaker.

As usual, Polk has another great product. The sound is incredible, I can hear stuff I never heard before. TV sounded like it was getting louder in the background and quieter in the talking making it hard to hear what they say sometimes. Now I can here everything they say. Having a speaker hooked up through a Marantz 7003 receiver I can add just a little more gain to it or less to others for the perfect match. Love it!

Nice quality sound, easy install

I have bought two of these and the sound is great for small to mid-size rooms. Nice clean look and easy install. I have installed these both with and without the optional mounting brackets. The brackets are really only needed to show your drywall guys where to cut the holes, they do not help much for actual installation.

Installation was easy and the template was accurate. Because of the double woofers, I am using this speaker as the center channel in a 5.1 application, and although the specs (and price) are impressive, listening is not a "revelation". The speaker is good - no complaints, its doing what I ask of it; but I haven't experienced anything that "stands out" from this speaker, which makes me wonder if another, less expensive speaker would have done the same job. As usual, Crutchfield is great with their customer support, sales staff, and quick shipping!
