4.0 out of 5 stars complementary center channel for LSi system, March 27, 2008

Polk's LSi series is its flagship speaker system. Being 4 ohm, it behooves one to ensure that the speakers are driven by a powerful receiver or consider separates (amp and Pre/Pro).

The center channel shares the same acoustical qualities as that of its companion speakers: smooth (if understated) and defined. The Ring Radiator tweeter is the centerpiece for these speakers, which utilize internal crossovers to ensure the best possible sound reproduction. Note that it is because of this crossover that one might mistakenly believe that one of the drivers may not be operating: check your receivers set-up and ensure that the center channel is set for "Large".

The LSi series is a very attractive piano gloss black and its connectors and cabinet are rock solid. The rear of the speaker features slots for wall-mounting although the speaker will set about 2" off the wall due to its vented port.

The sound? That's a very personal matter. Anyone considering a significant purchase like this should take the time to listen to the speakers for themselves. I am very happy with mine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not quite up the standard of the other LSi speakers, July 7, 2010

Great build quality and visual appeal. It matches our LSi25 and LSiFX system very well. Music sounds good, but dialog on movies doesn't hold up in my opinion. It can sound muffled or boxy.

It's getting 300 watts, is aimed at the listening position, and has been tried with audyssey, direct, and boosting the level to no avail.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Center, March 6, 2010

I paired this with LSi7 bookshelf speakers and in-walls, and couldn't be more happy with the sound quality. Everybody is wow'ed with the sound. Strong and crisp which is what I have come to expect with Polk. My only minor complaint is that the center finish is only available piano black and the matching bookshelves are ebony wood. I would have like to see the center match as the ebony is much nicer looking.
