Review on Hollow acoustics POLK AUDIO SIGNATURE ELITE ES20, white by Ada Maachowska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

I bought this bookshelf acoustics after listening in the salon, first I listened to the ES15 model, the consultant recommended listening to the ES20, then I listened to Magnat, Heco, Monitor Audio, and Tannoy, in the end I settled on the Polk Audio ES20 because I really liked its sound. Then I listened at home, out of the box without warming up, with thin ordinary wires (good wires were installed on the second set with the Yamaha NS 6490), their presentation of music delighted me, I was looking for acoustics with an undistorted middle for a long time, so that the voice would not be like from pipes, and I can say that this is the best middle I have heard in bookshelf acoustics, it is very natural and natural. The upper frequencies are clean, not intrusive, not lisping, they do not cut the ear, the ear does not get tired of them. Bass: With a 6.5" (165mm) diameter woofer, it's so deep and tangible that it feels like you can touch it, I compared its delivery with Yamaha NS 6490 speakers with a 203mm woofer, Yamaha's bass is lightweight, flat, not deep and not bulky. I abandoned everything and could not tear myself away from listening for several hours and I can say that this is a very good acoustic system, versatile, interesting, and I want to listen and listen to it! The vocal middle is so good that you begin to listen to genres that were not characteristic of you before: soul, jazz, blues, ethno, where the voice of the performer is most important. The amplifier was a twenty-year-old Yamaha AX-396, I listened to material from Internet services, with an output to an external DAC. My verdict as a music lover with more than 30 years of experience: for that kind of money (now sold in Onlinetrade for 29,990.00), this speaker should just be swept off the shelves while it is available (its production has already been discontinued), this speaker has a very durable case and a solid weight, made very soundly and looks impressive.

Pros
  • Excellent speaker system with outstanding sound. Solid durable case, convenient high-quality terminals, grills with magnets, the Power Port system allows you to put the speakers close to the wall, despite the rear position of the phase inverter. Magnificent appearance.
Cons
  • Didn't find
