Best Of

I hope this is a positive for Polk, but to be honest, it will take a lot for them to get me to purchase anything new from them. All of their TOTL speakers should have some support for a couple years after they kill the line, especially tweeters. LSiM, Reserve, Legend. People invest a lot of money in these lines, and more than likely, they will keep them for some time, give them a little life line.
Not asking for them to do what they have for the older SDA line, IMO I’m surprised we can still get tweeters.

If I ever find a nice set of L200’s for a good price, I would probably jump on them.

The problem with the legend series is Polk played it to safe with the enclosures.

I agree they are good looking and well built speakers but I think it was just a little to safe.

Especially when you compare the lsi and Lsim enclosures which are... Imo a timeless look and an industry standard build quality at the price point

The Legends have performed well too, but Masimo knew nothing about how to run an audio company.

Bravo!

I too view it as a net positive, but as I said earlier, Polk is the value brand within their portfolio, so expect to see the brand trend downmarket from where Sound United was trying to go. I could be wrong, but I think Masimo had little to do with the product Polk brought to market.

I agree with this as well. The legend and Reserve line I feel were well under way before Masimo became the title holder.
