Atrium 60 or Atrium 7
I'm in the middle of remodeling my bathroom, where I used to have a set of Audioplex Technology outdoor speakers, and I decided it's time to step up to the Polks. I was going to do a pair of Atrium 60 speakers over the sink and counter, and then an Atrium 65SDI in the section that has the shower and crapper. I've never heard the new line and have no idea how they measure up with the older speakers. I'm planning on sticking to the 60s and 65SDI unless the new lineup is really that much of an improvement, in which case it would be a pair of 7s and an 8SDI.

I have the Atrium 65SDI's, and did an in house demo of the Atrium 5's. The newer Atrium's have a much warmer sound, detailed with decent bass for the size. I'd have to say they are more of a lateral move, possible just a half step up from the old Atrium line.
One thing Polk did improve on was the mounting system which is heads above the old system.
