Suggestion for Front Speakers

trsman

I am trying to redo my HT system piece by piece and I have decided to go with Polk for my 5.1 system. Last night I listened to the TSI300 in Best Buy and I was impressed. I have been looking at the Monitor 50 speakers on the Polk eBay store and I can get them shipped for less than $200. I have not heard these speakers. I can not find them in town anywhere.

I am happy with the sound of the TSI300. Is there much difference between the sound of them and the Monitor 50 speakers? I am trying to save as much money as possible right now, but I am scared about buying speakers unheard. I have thought that if I don't care for the Monitor 50 speakers for my fronts then I can later make them my rears.

Thoughts?

I also have the Monitors (70's front and 40's rear) and I love them too. You can't find them in the stores because they are "last years model" and the TSi series "replaced" them for this years models. I got my 70's about 3 months ago clearanced, floor models from CC and got them cheap, but love them. You may have a hard time "auditioning" them since they are, like I said being replaced by the TSi series.

Use the 25% live search cash back and get the 60's or 70s for fronts. If you don't do it now, you'll want to soon after. It's human nature when dealing with HT.

I love my Monitors (70's)... I think they are the best bang for your buck speaker right now.
