My buddy wants to get new speakers for his HT. He said he has a 100 watt receiver. He wants book shelf. I am familiar with polk LSI and RTI series none of the others really. He does not want to pay the money for these series. What are your reccomedations on the other polk book shelf. He did not tell me room size or anything. He does not want to spend allot.

Do you really mean $119? $200 is pretty expensive for them, I got mine for $150 5 months ago, and they regularily go on sale for $119-$129/pr -

Why bookshelf speakers? Just curious. He will need to buy stands and those can add another $200 to the price when done right so floorstanders aren't much more if price is a concern. I hope he's not actually going to set them on a bookshelf, they will sound awful.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul!
