Not yet good reproduction

I haven't got good sound from the beginning - Shrill tweeters, muted mid-range. I must say that Adorama responded quickly, though only to refer me to the manufacturer. I'm still not sure what's going on, but my "A" speakers (old, smaller, much cheaper AKAIs) sound great, but alas these new "B"s do not. POLK said they'd call me, but alas they have not. I'd be delighted to update this review when they start performing well.

Way better than the price would indicate

Being a musician and having sold Audio back in the day, I like to think I have good ears for product, specially speakers. I rarely hear anything that competes with my beloved (1982) ADS L-620 speakers. I always liked Polk Audio and gave these TXs220B a try when on sale recently. Super glad I did, These are just great speakers, that should cost a lot more. A very good bargain. The high end / tweeters are excellent. Open and detailed without being shrill. The large front port will give plenty of bass response, you might have to boost it a little depending on your room. Mine were hooked up to a 60 wpc amp and I barely went past the 9 o'clock volume knob position, telling me these are quite efficient. They are quite deep and solid. In all, a very good sound for any money.

AWESOME!!

I've loved Polk Audio every since I heard their SRS series, way back in the day. Matthew Polk left JBL Labs to create, in my opinion, the BEST sounding loudspeaker. For the money, you simply can't beat Polk Audio. Their sound and performance is ALWAYS way above their price range. And the TSx220's makes my list for side and back surround speakers!

Great speakers for the price

I love these speakers. They have a very natural sound. They are just the right size to fit next to my TV.

They have excellent sound, don't weigh a ton and don't cost a mint

I bought these to replace the giant speakers of an older stereo system I own. Originally I thoought that because they were much smaller, the sound wouldn't be as good, but I was totally wrong. They have excellent sound, don't weigh a ton and don't cost a mint.

You want to feel the impact of your music or movie soundtracks and the only way to experience that impact is to listen to a loudspeaker that can really belt out a realistic reproduction of your media. Whether its MP3 digital, DVD or CD or even warm vinyl, the new TSx220B Bookshelf Loudspeaker can handle it with aplomb. That's because it features incredible audio technology, state-of-the-art materials and superior enclosure design. Build a system or enhance your current system, with the convenience and performance of a bookshelf-style loudspeaker.

Polk Audio TSx 220B Features

  • TSx Series bi-laminate composite driver cones, tuned perfectly with Polk Audio Dynamic Balance process, produce smooth, natural sound They are lightweight, but super stiff, with exceptional damping, for high efficiency and low distortion
  • Unlike horns or metal domes, silk/polymer dome tweeters deliver clear and detailed highs, without fatigue, even at high volume, and reveal more realistic vocal reproduction
  • Front-firing tuned port smoothes low frequency blending, for surprisingly full-bodied deep bass response from a bookshelf loudspeaker
  • All Polk loudspeakers are timbre-matched within their series, designed with the same components throughout, to achieve seamless speaker-to-speaker blending effects in multi-channel systems
  • The high efficiency design of the TSx Series works well with practically any electronics, even the most modestly-powered amplifier or receiver, delivering a performance that's spacious and clear, natural and realistic
  • Polk Audio high performance crossover system boosts performance with the kind of premium components (like mylar bypass capacitors, which reveal extended high frequency details) usually found on much more expensive loudspeakers
  • Gold-plated, professional-style 5-way binding posts, for the most secure connection options
  • Unique new curved enclosure design in non-resonant MDF creates a rigid, acoustically inert space, with non-parallel curved side panels that effectively reduce audible coloration
