How to Choose PSB Imagine X2T or Polk ES55 ?

Hi Guys,
I don't know how to choose between PSB imagine X2T and Polk ES55 ? Their frequency response of the two is almost the same. Which one is suitable for listening to music?
Thank you very much.

Kris

    They are in two completely different price categories, all else the same, I’d bet on the PSB’s for music all day long. Not that I have heard either of them but I do have experience with both brands

    I agree with this. Loved my PSB imagine Bs better than the LSiM703s.

    Better question: why aren’t you looking at the R600 or R700s? Seems like the better comparison..:
    Living Room 2.2: Usher BE-718 "tiny dancers"; Dual DIY Dayton audio RSS210HF-4 Subs with Dayton SPA-250 amps; Arcam SA30; Musical Fidelity A308; Sony UBP-x1000es
    Game Room 5.1.4:
    Denon AVR-X4200w; Sony UBP-x700; Definitive Technology Power Monitor 900 mains, CLR-3000 center, StudioMonitor 350 surrounds, ProMonitor 800 atmos x4; Sub - Monoprice Monolith 15in THX Ultra

    Bedroom 2.1
    Harmon Kardon HK3490; Bluesounds Node N130; Polk RT25i; ACI Titan Subwoofer
  • Finally, out of the blue, I bought a pair of second-hand monitor audio rx8.
    thank guys.
