    Polk Audio CS350-LS, matched to the RT line :D

    Capable of up to 250watts. 4 4 1/2" mid-bass drivers and 1 1" tri-laminate tweeter. I love the damn thing and use it with my sig-setup.

    Btw, David (knucklehead) just picked one up for $75 (which I believe to be a really good deal too) and he loves it.

    That's definately worth $30. I got mine for $60 from CL and felt like THAT was a steal.

    Go for it.

    I will say though that running off of just my Onkyo Reciever, the 350-LS does only so-so. It wasn't until I fed it some power from a power amp that it really came to life.

    I guess because ive never had a REAL center before I got my CS350, Im just lown away by the sq even with my AVR, I can only imagine how much better it will sound when I can afford an AMP.

    Another vote for run don't walk. One of Polk's better centers for SDA's.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    The center domes on those main drivers look a bit funky for Polk Audio. Are those really the originals?

    I didn't think so ... and the tweeter seems a bid odd too: the color doesn't look right for tri-laminate, which is what I suppose these had.

    Out of curiosity, what was the difference, if any, between the CS350-LS and the CS350, or are they one and the same?

    They are original, probably just the fact that they're dirty and the person couldn't take a well enough picture.

    No difference, there was only one type of CS350LS, they're matched for the older RT series (that I have in my sig) and LS series.

    I should correct myself. All LS 50/70/90 driver domes look like that. As do the domes on the drivers in my CS350 LS. I am unsure about the LS f/x stuff.
