    MSRP: ~$1000
    Power Handling: 250W

    Drivers:
    1 SL(something) tweeter
    2 6.5" mids
    2 8" passive radiators

    My opinion of their sound:
    -lows: Surprisingly deep bass. There seems to be a frequency response gap between the mid bass and deep bass likely due to the passive radiators. The deep bass almost seems over-emphasized. Pretty tight-sounding when driven with power.
    -mids: muddy, veiled, and lifeless compared to the newer RT series.
    -highs: not as detailed as the tri-lam tweeter on the newer RT series. Perhaps a bit more ringing as well.

    Bottom line:
    They're pretty decent speakers, but I wouldn't pay much more than $300 for a nice pair since I feel that the newer Polks easily best them.
