XT15 Surround Speakers

I heard and liked XT15's at retailer and ordered them (not received / installed yet). I have a Denon AVR S570BT receiver. My question is are these best suited for that receiver or should I have gone with XT20's? I also added XT35 Center Channel and XT12 subwoofer to the system. Now looking at upgrading 20+ year old floor standing Polks with XT60's or XT70's. Wondering which of these would be best for this receiver? Can you advise?

Not Polk company you are buying from

All I have to say I hope the 5-year warranty stands up to its name

Very clear sound using as rear surrounds

I replaced my outdated Sony satellite surrounds with theses. Big improvement. Very crisp and clean surrounds. Tweeter is a little loud when standing directly in front of them but the woofer balances that out at a distance. The sound carriers very nicely to my listining position. I'm told they have decent bass but using them as surrounds I haven't fully tested that out. But I would definitely recommend theses as quality surround speakers.

This is the best sounding bookshelf I have heard.

This is the best sounding bookshelf I have heard. This in combination with XT35 center in a 5.1 and a little equalization often makes me pause whatever I am watching to make sure what I am hearing is being played over my speakers. These are by far the best sounding speakers for the money on the market.

Xt15 speakers rock!

The speakers were quite impressive. I am using them with my old marantz receiver. The quality sound carries all over the house. A really good purchase.

XT15s Rock

These are excellent speakers for the price. Very crisp and full sounding with a nice bass treble complement. Easy set up and nice looking too.

No stands?!

The speakers are shown with stands, and nowhere did I see that they don't come with stands, very disappointing! The speakers sound great.

Wow Really Amazed

Wow. I am blown away at how great these sound at this price point. At $150 for a pair, I just can't believe how well rounded these speakers sound. I bought these for my rear surround speakers. I wasn't expecting much in this price range, but just wanted something to give me a rear channel. I connected these to my main front speaker outputs and the range they cover is amazing. No sub and no other speakers connected, with these sitting on my old box speakers they have amazing bass for such a small package. And they are clear. I'm no audiophile, but I've heard pricier speakers and yeah you can tell a difference. But at this price I'm just amazed at house nice these speakers sound. So nice, that I'm now considering replacing my main front speakers and not even bothering with a sub (my fronts currently have a 10" in each). Hmm, do I do these on stands for fronts or the XT60 or XT70?
