Im hiding this nugget in this thread Skip. Sold the 703s already (made some money too). I couldn't get used to the tweeter. Accurate and while not bad sounding, lacked the bloom and air that ive grown accustomed to with nautilus tweeters. How do the Sig series handle the high end?
-
Thanks. Yeah, might come a bit closer. I may pull the trigger on some S60s at next FF if offered.

There isn't a Polk speaker made that sounds like a B&W.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

While not "intimately" familiar with the 703/705 etc.... I have heard them.
They sounded lively on the highs and the mids wanted you to be "there"....but were just as happy knowing that just connecting emotionally with them was "just as good" My .02.......
But! In a another thinly veiled sexual innuendo.
The Sigs want you to like them. They come out with the freshly updated package.
Looks great from an outward appearance, but you can see a bit of her history lying beneath the new veneer.
"I'm here and I have new bewbs! Look at them!
But way down deep below that sassy upfront plastic surgery....is the same pretty girl you fell in love with 44 years ago.
It does take going through changes to realise you were OK after all....
It took me 30 minutes to say that......

Ive no doubt, but maybe floorstanders will change the game if i can get enough extension from the top.. -
I just heard from Flakey Jimmy this morning. He took delivery of his new "S60s" yesterday afternoon, the ones he was telling me he got an amazing deal on in the Polk Ebay store, one that even I couldn't believe, and looked like it had expired when I went to go check it out...
Flakey Jimmy told me he managed a pair of S60s for a ridiculously low price. Delivery on the 11th. Will swing by to help him set up and get the skinny. Will post back when I get the specifics. Now to get him educated on properly driving them and to quit buying receivers and AVRs and stuff that isn't really a bargain (I know, I know, I did/do the same thing...)
Wellt, turns out FJ actually ordered Monitor 60s by mistake lol. Attributes it to excitement and emotional buying. Guess I shouldn't have unleashed so much system on him at one time.
LESSONS LEARNED- Friends do not let friends buy speakers unattended.

Knowing Is Half The Battle

Ha! He might end up liking the monitor 60s

Flakey Jimmy, stays true to his name.
2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

At least you didn't ask him to order a pair for you too.

@Ctxx24 - Great looking setup!
What kind of AV stand is that (make & model)? Looks like it fits the S30 perfectly!

It does fit in perfectly.. I put the back pegs down one so it's angled up.. I really like it.. -

Electronics Expo is selling Polk Signature S15 speakers as "used" on Amazon.com, but they're new in the box, for $129.77!
I grabbed a pair of these "used" speakers and they are in perfect condition (BNIB). Run, don't walk, and get in on this deal before it's gone! -
Polk Signature S15 in the bedroom setup. Pretty nice! Perfect for the apartment dweller. They've got just the right amount of low end to accentuate TV/Movies but not so much that the walls are shaking. I can see mating these with the S30 for a seamless front end in an HT setup with dual subs taking care of the low end. They're very clear on top but not fatiguing at all; they bring out a lot of details. I'm happy with the sound quality from these "new" bookshelf speakers from Polk. They aren't the best I've ever heard but at their price point, I really don't see anything else coming close (especially at the sale price!).
These are big bookshelf speakers for having just a 5 1/4" driver. They almost look comical given the size of the cabinet: the size of the driver. The black on black looks good. The color of the tweeter and the bass/midbass driver are a really nice contrast.
