Cool Design and gadgets Lastest news*: I love these speakers and they sound great and look great

I bought this after a good week of searching for about $350. My goal was to get my Samsung LCD, Sony dr3400ES AV, PS3 (blue ray player), DVD, Tovo, iPod, and Media Center all interfaced with a set of great surround speakers to be able to listen to anything on any one of these devices. I did not want to go above $500 either but at the same time, I did not want the very lower end.

My last choices were this and Polk Audio RM6750 which was about $200 (a lot cheaper). Both had great reveiews. I chose 705 because it had smaller speakers and newer look in addition to great sound. The speakers and base occupy less room.

They are connected to a Sony AV dr3400ES and they produce magnificent sound. Whether it is mp3 music, blu ray movies, or hi def TV, the combination gives great sound with any decoding I have tried: Dolby variations, DTS,THX, stereo, Sony Cinema, ...

It fills the whole living room with great crisp sound and the bass can really shake the whole house for those who love bass. It was easy to set up though if you do not have a Subwoofer OUT on your AV or other equipment, there is a way to connect it to get the bass to the Subwoofer using a couple more speaker wires (older AVs) using the amplifier connections. If your AV has a subwoofer OUT, then you need a subwoofer wire with an adaptor to connect to the subwoofer here. It also has an amplifier which is specially useful if you want directly connect to an equipment bypassing your AV or amplifier.

I love these speakers and they sound great and look great as well.It was time to replace my old Sony home theater system. I had researched several models including Energy, Klipsch, and these Polks. Since I had already spent more than I wanted to on the AV receiver (Yamaha RX-V871), I chose to go with the Polks because of the price, specs, and reviews I had read here and elsewhere. I was definitely not disappointed. The speakers are of superb quality! The piano black finish of the satellite speakers look great, but they sound even better. I was very impressed by the deep bass produced by the powered subwoofer. The center speaker comes with a little stand that allows you to tilt the speaker upward, which worked perfectly for my situation. The system produced excellent full range sound - music sounded clear and crisp at low and high volume levels. But where this system really won me over was while watching movies. They are incredible! My only compliant is that I wasn't able to use my existing wall mounts - I had to use the ones supplied which don't allow the speakers to be tilted. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend them.
