    Those are pretty cool looking...I'm not big on the design of the feet though. Wonder how they sound.

    They do look pretty cool. Bit on the pricy side for a speaker that does not have a powered sub and only goes down to 35hz. I think I would go with the LSi15 or 25 over them but I would have to listen to them first.

    Gotta agree with ye there Motz

    You forgot about the RTi A7 and RTi A9 though...in my opinion those are the best looking speakers Polk makes...and are much better looking than those yammy's.
