Klipsch Synergy F-30 Premium Dual 8-Inch Floor-Standing Speaker Review

Klipsch Synergy F-30 Premium Dual 8-Inch Floor-Standing Speaker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had these speakers for several weeks now and have been very impressed. I am using them for the front left and right channels on my Home Theater System.
Prior to this I started with a Samsung HTIB and then went with the Klipsch Quintet SL with separate sub powered by an Onkyo reciever. I replaced the left and right SL's with the F-30's.
Some observations -
The F-30's blow the sound from the SL's out of the water. The sound clarity and the way the F-30's fill the room even at low volumes is so much better (and I thought the SL's sounded sweet. These take the sound to another planet, they are so much better its not even fair to compare them.
The F-30's require much less power to drive them. I had to reduce the signal to my left and right speakers by 4 levels as they produced so much more volume than the SL's. Both music and HT sound are exceptional.
The wife wanted these sent back when she saw the size of them (they are not bookshelf speakers) but changed her mind after one night of listening to them. She normally isn't one to notice much in audio quality but she did with these.
The sound that these put out was so dramatically better than I ever anticipated that I have ordered a new high end Klipsch center channel to bring all the fronts up to the next level. The rear speakers will be next. You will not regret purchasing these speakers. Look for occasional price drops for the best deal. If I could give these six stars I would.
The only downside to buying these was that I feel compelled to upgrade the other speakers now.

Polk Audio LSiC Center Channel Speaker (Single, Black) Review

Polk Audio LSiC Center Channel Speaker (Single, Black)

Polk's LSi series is its flagship speaker system. Being 4 ohm, it behooves one to ensure that the speakers are driven by a powerful receiver or consider separates (amp and Pre/Pro).
The center channel shares the same acoustical qualities as that of its companion speakers: smooth (if understated) and defined. The Ring Radiator tweeter is the centerpiece for these speakers, which utilize internal crossovers to ensure the best possible sound reproduction. Note that it is because of this crossover that one might mistakenly believe that one of the drivers may not be operating: check your receivers set-up and ensure that the center channel is set for "Large".
The LSi series is a very attractive piano gloss black and its connectors and cabinet are rock solid. The rear of the speaker features slots for wall-mounting although the speaker will set about 2" off the wall due to its vented port.
The sound? That's a very personal matter. Anyone considering a significant purchase like this should take the time to listen to the speakers for themselves. I am very happy with mine.

Polk Audio CSI A6 Center Channel Speaker (Single, Black) Review

I have Polk Audio speakers from the good old days, when they were very good if not exceptional. I needed a more prominent center channel, but I did not want to replace the other "parts" of the home theater arrangement. After contacting Polk tech support, they recommended the CSI A6 as complementary to the existing array. It is a good fit and provides clear dialog and the tone and range blend well. (the system is driven by a Denon 5308)

Definitive Technology BP8 Tower Loudspeaker (Single, Black) Review

Definitive Technology BP8 Tower Loudspeaker (Single, Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've owned these speakers for over 10 years and have loved every second of their performance. I have them running with an older Yamaha receiver. I've had them set up in two different homes. These are the best sounding speakers I've ever heard. They have excellent bass extension, imaging, sound field, and placement flexibility. They sound great for movies and spectacular for music. They're not too bright like a Klipsch or Martin Logan and not too soft like a JBL or Infinity. I can not say enough good things about these. These never really go on sale and you get what you pay for. They are worth the investment. Couple these with a subwoofer (though you could do without), the center channel CLR2002 and the surrounds BPX2s and you've got a totally kickin' system.

The BP8B is an extraordinary full-range bipolar loudspeaker which offers award-winning sonic performance superior to competitors' systems selling for twice its price or more. The BP8B's taller cabinet and cast basket drivers deliver even more extended bass response than the BP6B. Its sleek, ultra-compact design takes up only 0.5 sq. ft. of floor space.

Polk Audio CSI A4 Center Channel Speaker (Single, Cherry) Review

Polk Audio CSI A4 Center Channel Speaker (Single, Cherry)

The good:
* Great Polk Rti A sound--matches the rest of the speakers in the line perfectly
* Real wood speakers at this price point is amazing
* Cherry finish is really quite beautiful
* Solid high-quality construction
No real complaints, but just a suggestion: If you're matching this with large tower fronts (for example, the RTi A7 or RTi A9) in a home theatre system, consider upgrading to the A6. It can better keep up with the bigger speakers.
