4GREAT BOOKSHELF SPEAKERS  Jun 22, 2010
Purchased these after my 17 year old Infinity speakers finally gave up. I did a lot of reading of reviews--at Amazon and at other web sites--before making my decision. Unfortunately, there are very few places anymore where you can actually listen to speakers unless you're really into very high end audio. I'm very happy with the quality of these and they were very well priced. I'm hearing sounds I never heard before; I'll have to go back and re listen to my entire CD collection(!)

Speakers were ordered from J & R Music World through Amazon. They were originally supposed to be delivered in 7 to 10 days but I got them in 2. Great service!

4Decent Value, Very Good Sound, Solid Construction  Jan 03, 2010
I have my RTiA3 speakers set up in a den that is about 12' x 12'. They are installed on built in bookshelves in opposite corners of the room. I have them connected to a vintage Denon receiver which puts out about 100W x2. Sound from a Sony Playstation 3 and a Sony LCD TV is fed to the receiver. The sound from this setup is warm and spacious without excessive brightness and can be listened to without fatigue for hours. I listen to a very wide variety of source material (opera, country, pop, electronica, hip hop, classical, jazz and more) and I find these speakers up to all of it. In my application, vocals are well centered without a center channel speaker. Watching movies is a pleasure since dynamic sounds like gunshots, explosions, helicopters come through with impact. I feel no need for a larger home theater setup. Maximum output is well into the pain range before any audible defects are noted.
Speaker construction is solid and the black satin finish with a simulated wood grain is easy on the eyes. The midbass driver and front bass port have satin silver surrounds and the tweeter and housing are silver. You won't have to be coy about leaving the grilles off - the speakers look quality. The grilles are plastic and of only average quality. I find that the silver plastic edges of the grille impart a low cost look. A sturdy bracket and rubber feet are provided for wall mounting. A noteworthy limitation of these speakers is that at 15" deep (rear hardwire to front grille), they may be too large for an average bookshelf. In addition to the 15" of depth you should allow for at least 3" of additional space because the bass port is on the back of the speaker and this will be one of the ways of modulating bass output.

4great speakers! well worth the price  Nov 07, 2009
These are awesome speakers. The RTi A series is noticeably better than the old RTI's. I have 2 RTi12 towers and also the regular bookshelf speakers from Polk. These speakers are now being used as part of my center channel. I switched the pair of older polk 40 regular bookshelf speakers to be the rear surround back. Everything sounds much better. The sound is even much cleaner than the RTi12's. If I didn't already have RTi12s, I'd probably buy the A series equivalent or maybe even consider the LSi....but I bought the RTi12s for only $350 each (it was an amazing closeout price).

Lastly, even the cherry wood finish and the new Polk logo looks better.

4Very nice speakers  Aug 12, 2009
Really pleased with these speakers. They look and sound great. Beware, they are much bigger than you might think. Measure very carefully and/or make an effort to see them in person before buying, but buy with confidence, you'll love them.
