Not for serious listening
|
I have these connected to a Sonos system as their own "zone" in the same room as a pair of Dynaudio 52SE's. For those not familiar with Sonos, it lets you play the exact same source of music simultaneously on different speakers throughout your house. It happened to be an easy way to compare the Polk Audios to some very high quality speakers.
The comparison showed the the Polk Audio Monitor 30 speakers are not for serious music listening. I didn't expect the Polks to perform as well - that would not be a fair comparison. However, comparing them showed that the Polks are missing a lot of the music. Obviously, you wouldn't expect low end from speakers this size, and the low end is not present. However, parts of the mids and highs are missing, and other parts of the mids and highs are inappropriately blended together.
I had hoped that using these with a subwoofer would make them much better. It made them better, but not much better.
Amazon included these speakers for free with my Sonos order. I would not buy them. |
