These bad boys are awesome!

I created a 5.1 system in my 30' x 20' living room and had to find in-wall speakers due to the configuration of the built-in. I use these for front left and right with the 255c-RT in front centre, and a pair of wall mounted RTi-A1's at the back of the room. Using a Denon AVR X2200 and an SVS SB-2000 (sorry Polksters, I'm delighted with my set-up. I love all kinds of action and sci-if movies as well as listening to oodles of classic rock. Even my 9-yr old son loves the sound from cartoons. I can't tell you how much I love Polks products, other than to add that I hung a pair of Atrium 4's in my courtyard/patio (20' x 20') for entertaining and relaxing! At this point I should admit to having had an old pair of Bose 100's hanging in the kitchen - they were left by the previous homeowner. I've always thought Bose speakers were the bomb, but standing outside listening to my new Atrium 4's then stepping inside to hear my Bose units in the kitchen, what can I tell you? I now have a beautiful pair of, neighbor offending, Atrium 6's in the courtyard, with a 'gently used' pair of Atrium 4's blessing my kitchen! The Bose units are currently taking up space on a shelf in the garage! I can't consider myself any kind of audiophile, but would challenge anyone to find better value speakers than the Polk's I have - I even convinced a co-worker to include Polk units in his new outdoor kitchen and he loves them. Great product, great people, thank you Polk!

Best in wall speakers for the cost

Installed these speakers in a 5.1 surround system with the 255c-LS center channel. The sound is crisp with great presence. The lows, midrange and highs are very pleasing to the ear both in movies and music.
