> 3 dayI purchased this speaker to compliment a 7.1 in wall/in ceiling surround sound system. I purchased the following speakers and receiver: Polk Audio 255C-RT (Center) Polk 265-LS x 2 (Front Sides) Polk 80F/X-RT x 4 (Surround and Surround Back) Polk HTS 12 (Subwoofer) Denon AVR-x3600H (Receiver) While it is hard to come up with an individual review for each speaker, they work very well as a system. They sound decent out of the box. One of my main concerns was how well it would sound having mix and matched LS and RT into the same speaker setup. Upon the following process, those concerns were swiftly laid to rest. Once you get your initial sound set up configured (Audyssey if you are using a newer Denon receiver), tweak the crossovers and play around with other options - these speakers sound amazing once you get the right configuration. If you want to get the most out of these speakers, make sure you lay them out properly and go through the process of tweaking them to your liking. I installed the front and center channels on the wall, and the surround and surround back speakers in the ceiling. These are very easy to install. Most of your time will be spent on the layout of your speakers and potentially running speaker wire.

> 3 dayLove these speakers...they have great sound. Pay attention on installation though and plan it out. This guy will fit PERFECTLY between 18 studs, if you cut the hole just right. If you cut it too close to the stud though, the anchor piece cannot catch the drywall. Also, DO NOT overtighten!!! I broke the drywall on 1 bolt on three speakers, it is still stable but the drywall is visible bulged out. Take my advice, and some others and get some insulation or some type of filling for the wall. It sounds good in my living room, but you can also hear it very, very clear from my bathroom (other side of the wall) just as well! haha

Greater than one weekInstalled this speaker as a center speaker underneath my wall mounted 65 tv and it looks and sound great. What a nice improvement from my JVC center chanel standard speaker that looked ugly compared to an in-wall speaker. Installation was a breeze, sound is awesome, wife is happy my old college speakers are gone and the basement looks professional. Dont hesitate to buy.

> 3 dayVery nice center at a great price. The install template is easy to use. Of course, you may run into a stud right where you want the speaker to be so there will be work on your end to make it fit. In my case, the stud was blocking the right locking lugs so I simply cut off the interfering part and made it work. Snugged it up and ran the wires through. Very easy. All done in about 45 min from box open to watching great P2P content.
