Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)

Q: 4 ohm or 8 ohm? Do I need a special Amp to drive these speakers @ 4 ohms?
A: I have them powered by 130 WPC Rotel amp and the bass response is very strong. Prior to this I used a 70 WPC marantz PM 8006 and bass was much weaker. The Rotel amp out puts almost twice the watts at 4 ohms compared to the PM 8006. The R700 8 inch woofers respond well to more power and over-all sound quality is really improved as well.
Q: Is the Polk R700 tower speakers available in black ? Thank you
A: Hello Mike, The Polk Audio R700 speaker is produced in Black. Please contact your local Best Buy for ordering options. Thank you, Polk Audio
A: Oddly enough, the Polk R700 is currently available for purchase from Best Buy on 9/14/25. Best Buy has them listed as a “Clearance” item. They’ve done that before with this speaker, then it disappears, then it comes back. I’m not sure why they’re playing games with this speaker, as it’s a very highly rated one by customers and audio expert reviewers. I wonder what Polk has to say about this on again, off again, on again drill. It’s not good for people who want to buy it, plan for it, budget for it, then it’s gone. It happened to me. Come on Best Buy! You can do better.
Q: Is this the price per pair or of a single tower?
A: Hello, our Floor Standing speakers are sold as each not as pairs.

Worth every penny
These speakers are beyond what I imagined they have great highs good lows and the mids are not harsh berry neutral to warm sound. Not a harsh sharp speaker. They come rated at 8,6,4 ohms but tests show these are 4ohm speakers. So get some good power to them to wake them up. They were delivered on time and with no issues. Be careful unboxing the ring radiator tweeter is sharp and could either be bent or broken so be gentle and enjoy these immaculate speakers.

Amazing sound quality
I've always been a Bose guy. I was comparing these with the 901 series but decided to give these a shot. I couldn't be more pleased. They sound amazing and were with the purchase.

A truly exceptable speaker
I watched hundred of reveiws of several types and brands of speakers. Martin Logan Motion XT and Bowes and Wilkins 704 s3….to name a few. Ultimately, I chose these for their neutral sound, solid performance, and exceptional value. I do not regret the purchase. I’ve yet to tired of them. Pretty much all music genres play well but I really enjoy 70s classic rock through these. They are not fatiguing. You can jam all day long. Movies play extremely well through these too. Yes, the finish could be nicer, but quite honestly half the price of the other two brand, what a steal. This is just one of those purchase where double the price speakers aren’t really that much better, if at all.
