Awesome Polk reserve tower, cristal clear sound
I am very happy i went for polk reserve series speakers. It is the cheapest high quality speaker you can buy now in market. I brought reserve 500, matching surround and center, but I would recommend anyone to buy bigger size of this tower speaker if you have larger room. Polk reserve speakers are stylish, includes atmos spekers also if you desire one in this series.

Polk R500,,,Nice Surprise,,,
Matched these R500's with a B & K Reference 125.2 SII amplifier and they sound fantastic.BK amps are known for their warmth and superb build quality.The Polk R500's respond with authority and detail that will get you pulling out all your favorites and settle in for a few hours of listing.You will need to give them a good 40 hours give or take for them to settle in but after that,,,and with propper amplifier...I think you be surprised and happy with your purchase.
