Excellent Quality For The Price.
These Polk XT20 Speakers were purchased to replace a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 12.0s, which, while excellent, were found to be quite fatiguing over extended listening periods. The Polks also had a superior frequency response range, 38hz – 40,000hz vs 70hz – 20,000hz, for the Wharfedales, which should, on paper at least, give a much more pronounced bass response. In terms of build quality, the Polks were very well-finished (the fine-textured overall black cabinet finishing, a pleasing and modern looking alternative to the common ‘black ash’ vinyl wraps which adorn so many entry-level bookshelf speakers). The Polks did not have as solid a cabinet as the Wharfedales (an indication of thicker MDF construction and superior internal bracing). The Polks binding posts are also not as high quality as the Wharfedale’s, which also boasts twin sets of terminals on each speaker for ‘bi-amping’.In terms of performance, however, the Polks were exceptional for what is a budget price. Clear and crisp high treble without being overly bright (with only a slight trace of high-end roll-off) and punchy, tight bass at medium to high volumes with no obvious signs of audible distortion. As with most speakers in this price range, lower volumes did lack a little definition. Only the mid-range performance was slightly subdued, in what was an overall fine attempt at creating a convincing soundstage. Being Rear-Ported, correct placement is also essential to contributing to a balanced soundstage.When tested with a Cambridge Audio Axa35 Amplifier (8 ohm) and Axc25 CD Player, the speakers were easier to drive than their 87db sensitivity suggested, and would undoubtedly be more so with a more powerful integrated amplifier than the Cambridge. The Polks also responded extremely well to EQ, and are actually, by default, quite neutral, so can be ‘tuned’ quite effectively through Tone Control.For this reviewer, the bass response – while excellent for a budget bookshelf speaker – is certainly not as powerful as other reviews seem to suggest, and a subwoofer would certainly enhance lower frequency response.However, most pleasing of all, is the XT20s ability to provide consistent non-fatiguing listening for extended periods. This was evident through a diverse range of different genres from electronic EDM to Hard Rock, and is, perhaps, the speaker’s greatest attribute in an entry-level speaker marketplace where listening fatigue is often cited as the reason why individuals upgrade to the next mid-price level.Overall, an aesthetically pleasing, well-made budget speaker with surprising acoustic performance and sonic dynamics throughout.For the extremely competitive price of £189, you can’t really go wrong.

I love them
These are my first proper Hi-Fi speakers I’ve ever owned and I’m blown away.Paired these with the Aiyima A80 and a Presonus Eris Sub 8 and I’m in heaven.I never thought I’d hear this much clarity, detail and sound stage from the music that I listen to.A great example was the song: Mirror by the Supreme beings of leisure, it almost sounds like a different version with things in it I didn’t hear before, even with my hidizs mp145 iem’s.So very happy and I’d give more starts I could. Also got them for £97 so the value is unbeatable for me.

Clarity
Excellent home speaker, bought a pair. Is adequate for a small hall. Sound is rich, crisp and clear though that is in response to the amplifier and equalizer that drives it.

Well worth buying, but are sold separately, not in pairs
I checked the Q&A for some info, as it was confusing, someone said, They were sold as a pair and came in 1 box, So I though bargain and hit buy now button immediately, Found out after waiting 6 days late, they’re indeed sold as 1 item, ordered another 1, then had to wait a further 3 more late days delivery for the second 1 to arrive, but with that said and done, the wait was worth it.After using the old speakers for 20 years, I decided it was time to upgrade, when I noticed they were not sounding like they used to. I’m glad I did, The Polk MXT60 towers are just so much better than the old set, I finally have the level of sound I used to have and then some.I’ve noticed Polk MXT60, have a much brighter high end, seems like the tweeters are boosted, but I like that and even turned up the 16Khz a tad more via the EQ for left and right channels, The bass response from these are so good, I’m definitely sold on the passive radiator enclosure, I’ve even turned down the volume on the Sub (Polk MXT12), quite a lot.Buying the Polk MXT 12 sub, in the first place, is what made me realize that, the old speakers were in fact getting tired. I’ve since gotten the Polk XT30 (centre speaker), I’m also going to replace the rears to Polk XT20’s at a later date.

Polk Audio Monitor XT15
Superb speakers in 2.0 configuration. Very pleased with them. Exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended. Just wearing them in. Another 20 hours should do it.

Great Clarity
Excellent, paired with a Denon AVR 760 and 79 strand speaker cable. Not sure id I should raise them higher to bounce of the insulated panel roof of the garden room for best placement, may try it to see. definitely adds that extra dimension. Subtle not over powering. Use decent quality speaker cable

Abbinate ad un amplificatore Yamaha AS 201, giradischi Audiotechina AT LP120X e collegamento con dispositivi bluetooth, ne sono subito rimasto soddisfatto della qualità del suono, diffuso in un piccolo studio di 12 mq. Suono ben enfatizzato a tutti i livelli. Certo ascolto esclusivamente musica rock, quindi magari con generi diversi potrebbero rilevare difficoltà che io nn trovo. Ho acquistato nel frattempo anche un’altra coppia di altro noto produttore, con woofer e cabinet più grandi, (collegati all’altra uscita dell’ampli) al doppio di prezzo…. bè a parte che i bassi sono meno presenti e persistenti, la qualità e pulizia del suono, la precisione e la resa volumetrica è superiore!Il mio è un giudizio nn da esperto, ma il confronto istantaneo fa emergere le differenze subito e con buona chiarezza!Ottime x me!

parfait, un son clair, idéal pour une enceinte centrale.

I wish I had purchased this along time ago. Excellent sound to go with my Bose 3.1 and 2.1 speakers and Polk Audio 10 inch sub woofer that I just purchased from Amazon. I was thinking of the Klipscich but this is just fine. Size is nice and clarity a real plus.

Preis-Leistung für mich super Boxen für Front-High so wie ich sie nutze oder als Atmos Boxen die XT90.Auch die XT15 die ich als Front und Surround boxen nutze sind mega gut haben eine extrem detaillierten Sound.Zu guter Letzt habe ich mich noch für die XT 35 Slim Centerbox entschieden.Auch mit diesem bin ich mehr als zu Frieden.Alle Boxen zusammen spielen für mich den perfekten Sound und das extrem gut zusammen passend.Bin wirklich froh mich gegen Teufel und für Polk entschieden zu haben.Ich persönlich finde den Sound mehr als top und bin sehr sehr zu Frieden das ich mich für Polk entschieden habe.Habe mir mit diesen Boxen ein sehr gutes abgestimmtes 5.1.2 Heimkino system aufgebaut.Ich hatte schon einige boxen in meinem Leben aber das sind mit Abstand die besten in ihrer Größe die ich je hatte.
