I purchased these speakers for my home theater setup. I have a second setup of Polk speakers that have been great. These sounded just as good, if not better than the Polks Im used to. I took the risk of buying these before trying, but since I have been satisfied with their car products in the past, it was worth it. Also, the price was too good to pass up for $500 compared to $1000 retail. These speakers especially sound good when connected to a good, powerful receiver. The subwoofer put out frequencies Id never heard on movies Ive watched in the past. Movies sound fantastic, but I only gave 4 stars due to the lack of mid-range for music listening. I had to boost the subwoofer to make up for it. I may purchase a couple of infinity towers for the front 2 speakers, and use the smaller speakers as surround rear channels for a full 7.1 layout. This would make up for the lack of midrange. If youre buying these for only music listening, I wouldnt recommend them. But as a 5.1 home theater system, I definately recommend them.

Luckily I purchased these manufacturer recertified directly from Harman for a decent price and only the sub woofer was altered but still as new.
They look nice and can play very loud. These speakers are initially designed for home theater and with a $500 to $800 price tag I would give them a 5-star rating.
However, it seems Harman wanted to save literally $5 on some decent damping material. Music sounds as if its coming from a hollow can, especially the sub woofer. I find this quite embarrassing for a well-known speaker manufacturer so for music playback I give these speakers a 1-star rating.
I think Ill void the warranty and add some poly-fill myself. This will absorb reflections and give the speakers a more natural sound.
