POLK AUDIO R50 SERIES

So i ordered this baby just yesterday....but I guess what I am confused about is that only one tower is being shipped out.....does the one tower have a "left" and "right" speaker for audio listening or do I need to order another one so I'd have one for a "left" side and one for a "right" side?

    If it is sold as a single speaker, you will need two.

    Where did you order it from?

    seriously? I can't just have one....I thought that one tower will have both left and right; I think the supplier would've known this and sent me both if it required a left n right

    From the sound of things, that one tower will have both "right" and "wrong". :o

    Speakers are frequently shipped as singles. That way you can buy just one for the center channel of a home theater set-up. So, what are you planning to power them with? You do realize these are passive & require a receiver or amplifier as well, right?

    There’s no left or right in the R, TSi or RTi series. The new L is different. Polk does not have an active series.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
