Just got a pair of LSIM 707 of Polk eBay site for 2k. Wow they sound amazing. I also have the 706 center. Now all I need is the Lsim 702 for surrounds. Does anyone know where I can get a pair for a good price ? For the price I paid I am over the moon with these speakers. The bass is insane :smile:

    Contemplating selling mine and they are in great shape except for the scratches on the back from hanging them.

    The best deal I ever seen on those was a CL posting out West for $300. You won't see that again for some years....but used is going to be the best deal.

    Hey would you mind checking the impedance from the 707 and and 706? I just ordered today a set of the 707 along with the 706 and a pair of the 703. I am trying to decide on an amplifier for them and that is why I am curious. My suspicion is that the 707 may read at close to 4ohm when not biamping them. Or are they 16ohms when bi amping?

    You cannot simply check the nominal impedance of a speaker with a DVM. All that will tell you is the resistance.

    Regardless, if you checked the specs, you'd see that the 707 is rated at 8 ohm nominal and it doesn't change with how you power them. However, it does change with frequency.

    As for bi-amping. Unless you are using completely separate power amps, each with its own power supply AND using active crossovers you are not bi-amping.

    I am using some 703's with my 705's as I thought they would be better for music or music concert on blu-ray and that was more important to me then movies. As the 703's sound really good on their own.

    got all my stuff in, now just on the horn for a pair of 702 or 703, trying to decide. Have a parasound a51 on the way also, going to add a A21 too. I am very impressed with the quality of the polks. I can not wait until end of the year to break ground and get my theater room under way!! To much goodness to be stored in a closet.
