Good speakers easy to setup. Bought 2 of those to go with my DefTec Sound bar . Sound is good, a little heavy on the bass but otherwise very clear, no noise or distortions even at max volume. PlayFi streams effortlessly itune/ Pandora and Internet radio. Wish you could use the same streaming service to play different songs in separate zones, that's why I gave it 4 stars. Exceeds my expectations for the price.

This unit produces a very nice sound that easily fills a room. I like it much better than the Jawbone it is replacing. Although, I must admit I miss the battery powered capability. I wish I would have spent a little more on this one to get the battery powered option.
Supports my Pandora account flawlessly, but I haven't been able to sync to my Sirius account yet - that it my only complaint with this unit.

This is a great little speaker. Fulls the room with crisp sound. We have used it outdoors too and it performs well. Awesome for the price.

Nice start for Polk

This system of playing music over your network through speakers has a way to go, but this is a promising start for Polk. On sale at half the price of any competitor, I took the chance to see if I had any desire to move in this direction without breaking the bank. Overall, I would say the system was difficult to set up initially, and non-computer savvy types will definitely struggle. The sound is okay, sounds good for a small (10 x 10) room. I will probably buy a couple more of these for other small rooms, but the real item I am waiting for is for a receiver that transmits over my network. Lots of receivers receive audio like Pandora over networks, but none transmit. The smart phone can do it, why can't your receivers: Sony, Yamaha, Denon, etc...

I brought it while on sale for $99 bucks. It has great sound. The wifi connect is the only downfall.

Was pleased with sound and performance. The instructions that come with speaker are vague. If you are pairing two speakers I suggest you go to polkaudio.com for their owners manual. Here you will find all the information you need to successfully set up, pair etc. your Polk wireless system.

The sound is very high quality and a good value for the money. The system is relatively easy to setup. Like similar products the Polk cloud needs to be reset. Meaning uinplug all drivices and reboot your wireless router. This happens mostly when I've had issues with my wifi unrelated to the Polk speakers.

Easiest, cheapest way to have multi-room audio

I have 4 of these speakers plus the Omni Sound Bar. I could not be happier with my purchase. I had been looking for a wireless multi-room audio option and was not happy with the amount of Airplay products available or their stability. I love that the DTS technology will be used by other brands so I can add higher quality speakers later if the need arises. For their size and price, these speakers sound pretty good. The iOS app needs ALOT of work (Sirius and occasional stability issues) but I know it's a new technology and it's a work in progress. Looking forward to being able to use these as rear speakers for the sound bar in the future as well.

I bought this after listening to all the different kind of wireless speakers that Best buy carries. It has the fullest sound and is very loud without distorting. It's dual direction speakers fill the entire room with sound.

Good quality speaker but don't use for video

Excellent for playing music wirelessly. Video applications not so.
Bought 2 of these thinking I could use them as stereo speakers for PC. You can connect 1 speaker via 3.5MM audio cable but not both. Want to run them in stereo mode using wireless? well, you have to pay for Play Fi pro -- the free version doesn't enable stereo mode. Not good for viewing video via wireless -- too much lag.
Setup: go to appstore and download the Omni Utility to your phone. Run the app and it will download the latest firmware to the speakers. In my case I had to run it a few times because it kept on stalling at around 70% download completed. After updating the firmwire, download and run the Omni app.

Sounds great for a WIFI speaker (NOT BLUTOOTH)

We loved the quality of sounds from this speaker; the only (and it's pretty significant) problem is that it is WIFI only. You have to stream your music thru your WIFI to the speaker. Since we envisioned another use without WIFI availability, it won't suit our purposes.

Great speaker, sounds loud and easy to hook up! Wish it was Bluetooth compatible. But other than that it is a great product.
