5.0 out of 5 stars Great Looking and Sounding Speakers, April 5, 2008

I am using these Polk VM10's with a POLK sub-woofer in my dining room. I am powering them with a SONOS 100 powered receiver and have the system set up on a black laquer side table... the finish on the speakers matches the table perfectly... they look cool.

The whole set up cost less than a thousand and gives me a great sound and access to all of my ripped CD's plus the Rhapsody library of I don't know how many millions...

The speakers put out a clear crisp sound that is good at both low and high volume...

I would imagine that mounted on the walls with two more speakers, they would make a fantastic surround sound system, particularly for smaller rooms...

This review is from: Polk Audio VM10 Satellite Speaker (Single, Black) (Electronics)

My philosophy in surround speakers is that they should provide adequate and accurate fill when playing movies or special soundfields. They do not need to measure up to anything else. The VM10s are small, attractive, and highly adequate. They come with a wall/table bracket. I use these as my two rear surrounds, with VM30s as front mains and a VM20 as my center. The center VM20 made a tremendous difference in my movie enjoyment. Voices are very clear and when playing music in preconfigured soundfields that use the center, it really picks up the pace. The idea in using the VM series all the way around was to voice and frequency match the whole system. I didn't useed to think that was important, but I do now! These are all powered by a Sony 2400es receiver, and the sub is a Velodyne DHQ15-R. The sub needs to be great, I think, not just good, to fill the missing frequencies when you use speakers like these. These speakers are dropping dramatically in price, too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cutoff frequency for these speakers is 100 Hz!, December 21, 2008

If you do end up getting these speakers, make sure to also get a subwoofer whose upper 3dB cutoff is at least 110Hz. Without a subwoofer, the sound from these speakers is "tinny" and lacks depth - very unimpressive.

I will update this review after adding a subwoofer to my setup.
