I highly recommend these speakers for anyone looking for a solid product for the money. I installed mine in my ceiling which was a little scary but it turned out to be easier than I thought. These speakers are great. They are easy to install and have excellent range.
Since my attic has blown insulation, I built enclosuers (1.47 cubic feet each) that drop between the rafters with openings just big enough so that I can still mount the speakers on the dry wall. But other than that I can't even tell there anything there.Speakers where easy to install, grill come off with little effort, but just not much sound coming from them even after adjusting the surround L/R speaker levels on my reciever.
I'm glad I didn't go with the Tc80's. maybe the M70's are just too over powering for these surrounds.
Installed these into my ceiling for a 5.1 setup. helicpoters, gun shots, etc.
I cant image them being any much better than these. using Polk Monitor 70's in the front with CS2 center channel.
I only notice the speakers once or twice during a movie.
No need for picks or paper clips or anything else. A quick tip: When you remove your new speakers from the box, just twist the speaker housing lightly in your hands and the speaker grills, which were set into the speakers at the factory, pop right off.
Not quite as easy to install as wall speakers; should have done ceiling speakers first before muscles were tired. Perfect complement to other Polk speakers making up surround-sound home theater.
Like other reviewers, the speaker's grilles are somewhat difficult to get off, so use caution removing them, as you can dent or scratch the grille if being too forceful. Bass and treble are to my satisfaction. I purchased 4 of these speakers and installed them in my living room. Yes, there are better speakers, but for this price, they are great speakers.
