Q: What is the difference between the XT15 and the T15 speakers?
A: Hello, the XT15 speakers have a larger midrange driver and use different diver materials then the T15 speakers. The T15 speakers can be wall mounted due to the front firing port and provided keyhole on the rear of the speaker. The XT15 is ported at the rear and is not designed for wall mount.
Q: Are these speakers compatible with the Polk psw10 subwoofer?
A: Hello and thank you for your question and interest in our product. The XT15 bookshelf speakers and PSW10 subwoofer will make for a great pairing. If crossover settings are adjustable in the AV receiver, I suggest setting the XT15 speakers to small and setting crossover to about 70 Hz.
A: Hello, as you mentioned, the speakers do not come with a power cord as they are passive speakers. The Polk Audio XT15 speakers do come with Black Grills.

A: Hello, this receiver will work just fine with our speakers. Just be sure to have bare wire for the cable connections.
Q: Would these speakers be compatible with my new Audiotechnica LP60X record player?
A: I have these speakers paired with Fosi Audio BT20A Pro (Class D mini amp), and my AT-LP60XBT. Listen via BT (haven't tried wired via RCA yet as speakers and turntable in different rooms). But yes you'll need an amp of some sort.
A: Hello, our Polk Audio XT15 Bookshelf Speaker comes equipped with a 1/4" 20 Threaded Insert or Keyhole Hanger located on the back.

Good quality
They sound really good I'm sure with the 1 inch tweeter it's giving the sound better highs and bass is not shabby for bookshelf speakers you will have to adjust to your preference depending on the music and every song will be different also, I have equalizer so it has a lot more DB gain and adjustment a long with a subwoofer to bump it

Purchased to replace a pair of older yamaha's. Sound went from good to great. Excellent addition to my surround system. God clean highs and just enough bump to complement the sub. Great value and quality for a minimal cost. I will be purchasing another pair very soon.

Exceptional Sound.
I bought these small speakers to upgrade my 10 year old name brand shelf speakers. I am very happy with this first Purchase of a Polk item. The bass is pounding and wide. The treble is lifelike. The sound clarity fills the room. They are appropriate in a bedroom, office, dorm, or small apartment, and they would sound great on a home theater system. They are 10.5 inches high, 7.5 inches deep, and 6.5 inches wide. It is stunning such sound clarity comes from such small speakers.,
