Review on πŸ”Š Polk Audio 70-RT 3-Way In-Ceiling Speaker (2.5” Driver, 7” Sub) - The Vanishing Series with Power Port, Paintable Grille & Dual Band-Pass Bass Ports, White by Carlos Henderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value for money - great sound!

I installed two of these in a 21' x 11' room with a 10' ceiling and powered them with a Sonos Connect: amplifier so they get about 55 watts each. They effortlessly fill the room with great sound. The mids and highs are very detailed and pleasing, but not harsh. There's enough bass, but they're not as deep as we'd like. Some of this may be due to the space above the ceiling - I have an attic above where if you have another floor above there may be a few more depths contained in the space. It's also very subjective and they will probably fit most people 100%. My wife likes them very much. Installation was as easy as any other in-ceiling or wall speaker - you cut a hole and screw in "clips" that adhere to the drywall. Of course, the complexity of laying cables depends entirely on your home. I was very happy with the build quality and materials of these speakers. They were of enough weight not to feel like they would break trying to get into the newly cut holes. The wire terminals were good too - they are terminal pins instead of spring terminals which was a pleasant surprise. Nonetheless, I would buy them again if the need arose. For the price, I don't think they can be beat. We use them for several hours every day and have not been disappointed.
