Hi guys, I'm from Argentina and I've found this forum looking for info about Polk Speakers.
I've a Denon AVR-1800 and I want to hook up a pair of speakers for music and movies in my apartment.
I'm between two Polk speakers, both used at (practically) the same price:
Polk S-10
http://www.audioreview.com/cat/speakers/floorstanding-speakers/polk-audio/s10/PRD_121051_1594crx.aspx
Very good condition, but no grills.
Polk Monitor M60
http://www.polkaudio.com/homeaudio/products/individual/floorstanding/monitor60/?reviews=1
Excellent condition, a little bit more expensive.
Wich one do you guys recommend me?
I can only say that I like more the design of the M60 (plus it has the grills) and they are a bit taller wich is good for me because of the tweeter altitude.
On the other hand, the S-10 looks uglier to me but they have a bigger Woofer and they were Top-of-the-line. That makes me wonder.
Wich one sounds better?
It's a plus for me the one that needs less power to give good sound. I like to listen music at high volume but not ALL day

i would go with the m60 if you already have a subwoofer.. looks nicer, newer just for some reason, i almost have a feeling that the S-10 will give out more bass.. And why get speakers you will want to keep hidden
and remember to get a subwoofer if you don't already have one.. -
Finally I could listen to both. S-10 was a clear winner to me.
Better and clearier sound in general. Highs and mids were much more natural and plain than M60s and on top of that, the 10" Woofer (bass-reflex) gives much more powerful and deeper bass.
S-10s turned out to be pretty cool. In the pictures I saw they were awful, but it was for the flash and the camera.
Thery're all black and sleek. My apartment is mostly black and white so they look really cool. -
I'm happy for you. I did have a feeling that the S10 was going give out more bass, most speakers manufactured today are designed to work with a separate subwoofer and it also depends on whether you are using a stereo Amplifier or a surround receiver.. Just don't get your neighbors mad at you now
