Pros: Price, built, sound quality
Cons: None, to a non-audiophile "normal" living person!
Summary: It's been a while I was looking for those R30 speakers from fry's that went on and off the sale price of $39.99 a piece. Finally I told to myself that I need them for sure and pulled the trigger on a sunny day! I had to call the CSR at Outpost.com in ... read more

Pros: A value and performer that is well beyond what is expected.
Cons: I wish the cherry finish was still available, you snooze you loose.
Summary: I have had a few nice speaker set ups in my time including Polk, Klipsch, B&W Etc.. I listen to high resolution formats like DVD-Audio and SACD every day.My friends and family would call me an audiophile but I just enjoy a dialed in system. I ... read more

Pros: A speaker that's just the right size: great for movies, and good for music
Cons: Music is accurate, yet it falls a little short on liveliness: bass is good though
Summary: After I reviewed the Alpha 20's from 'Infinity', I also remembered a speaker that was also sold at the Future Shop that surprised me in it's quality. Polk Audio brought out the "R" series a few years back, and were already discontinuing the series. ... read more

Pros: Great sound, great looks, great size, great price.
Cons: They were not free.
Summary: Remember that song "You're simply the best....." That is what I think of these (for the price anyway). I bought these without even seeing them in person and I am just amazed now how good these are. They are well built, sound great and got them for $120

Pros: Decent lows.
Cons: Imbalance mids to highs.
Summary: I saw these were on sale for $80 for the pair so I looked at reviews and decided to slap down the cash. Well at first I was impressed with the lows these speakers produced with such small drivers compared to my old 20 year old speakers which have more

Pros: Great imaging and sounds great for home theater
Cons: Does seem to lack that 'livelyness'
Summary: I'm not a guy that knows what an overly expensive sound system setup sounds like. But I do know that I like what I hear. I have a set of R50s for the front and yes R30 for the rear. Yes... the R30s (for the price I had to pick these up) Coupled with

Pros: they look nice and have a small floor footprint
Cons: tinny midrange and grating treble
Summary: I just had a pair of Polk Audio R30 towers delivered for $49.99 each + shipping from Outpost.com. I connected them to both a Harmon-Kardon HK 3480 receiver and Hafler DH-220 power amplifier and listed to them with a variety of sources including Scott

Pros: very transparent sound, slighty warm sound, strong defined bass from port.
Cons: none
Summary: AUDIOPHILE like speakers that get out of the way of music, don't pronounce themselves in any way...that give music any nothing else, that is R30. clean, clear and strong bass. I bought these on a lark from Fry's and using a pioneer d412 to drive them
