read some reviews and seemed pretty good. the sub is the weak point from my understanding. but i would like to get opinions of the more in depth speaker people lol. they are for sale for 174 right now. i have pioneer sx-255r receiver.

They're fine satellites and a bargain at $174! The sub is their weak point.


Another option would be the Energy Act6. $179 brand new on ebay. Item #200293448295

You do know that Pioneer receiver is not a 5.1 A/V receiver right?

i figured. thing is a hand me down. what suggestions do you guys have for a 5.1 system. maybe even a whole htib

Pair those Polks with any of the Onkyo, Denon, Yamaha, Harmon-Kardon, or Marantz 5.1 or 7.1 receivers and you'd have a good system.


7.1 receivers might have a few more features than the 5.1s, and you can shut off the surround rears to go 5.1 easily.

Don't forget to look at Pioneer as well. The VSX-1018AH is a good value.
