With thanks to TOOLFORLIFEFAN who sold me some tweeters a few weeks ago, I now have Polks all around, well at least the 7 but not the.1 of the 7.1.
My livingroom set-up does double duty as 7.1 tv watching but also two channel music from both the computer music collection and also the XM/Sirrus music channels on DishNetwork. This was all put together on a shoestring budget, infact the only new component was the Pioneer Elite AVR, and that was a bargain too.
Purist should take notice I did harm / mod a Monitor 7C enclosure to fit the space I had as a center channel.
It's a modest system for sure, but considering it replaced a home theater in a box Sony & AR gear I had before I think I did OK!
