Polk Audio 265-RT 3-way In-Wall Speaker - The Vanishing Series | Easily Fits in Ceiling/Wall | High-Performance Audio - Use in Front, Rear or as Surrounds | With Power Port & Paintable Grille - Black

The Polk Audio 265RT 3 way speakers complements my existing speakers well. The speakers are worth the price and the effort to install them into the wall. Sounds great with clear mid-range, treble and the bass complements my sub-woofer,

work well in our movie room, no rattling and were easy to install

I replaced a set of Polk Audio RTi A9s to regain some space. These sound just as good with a sub. You will need a sub to get the lows youll be looking for to round out the sound and enjoy movies. They sound fine without a sub, but to really get that full bodied sound, I suggest a sub, or pair of 12 subs as I have done. I airbrushed the grills to match the paint on the walls they were installed in. It was the 1st time I have used an airbrush and I must say, they look like they came that way from the factory!

I installed these with the matching center channel. Hooked up to my old Yamaha home theater it sounds great! I had similar floor standing Infinity towers and matching center but these blow it away. Also 10 to 20% louder at same power level than the infinity. Template provided to cut out the hole was perfect. My only comment would be to make sure you’re 1/2” to 1” away from a stud so that the clamps that old it in place can flip out and grab the backside of the drywall.

I was truly skeptical about purchasing in-wall speakers. I thought for sure these would sound horrible. But, Polk Audio never seems to disappoint. Ive owned some of there lesser models and they seemed to perform well too. However, the 265RT are definitely one of their higher end products and it sounds even better than the previous bookshelf models I owned. The speaker is setup in a large room with tall ceilings. This kind of environment doesnt lend itself to good sound quality. But even in that size room the 265RT sounds great. The speakers are used for both playing music and watching shows. As surround speakers the sound amazing. I hear more detail than I heard with my older bookshelf model. When playing music, it is definitely more defined sound than with my older speakers. Overall I am very pleased.

Great price for the money. When put together the sound is about a 7 out of 10 compared to b&w which is about 4x the price.

Exactly as they advertised. Sounds amazing.

I ordered these never hearing them before as I like the sound of Polk speakers. I couldnt be happier with the purchase. I use three of these as the left, right, and center in a 7.1 setup while using the 65 rt model to round out my other 4 channels (if you use this as a center keep in mind it is NOT intended to be mounted horizontal). Im not a speaker snob but I do appreciate good sound and full range in a speaker and these things deliver. When I first set them up I had a setting messed up in my receiver that wasnt sending a signal to the sub and I didnt pick up on it for about 5 minutes (obviously these wont put out the boom you get from a sub but the range was full enough that I didnt notice for a bit). I had originally planned on using some cheaper Polk in-walls but I caught a great deal on another site for Black Friday and convinced myself that if I was cutting holes in my walls I better get something I was not likely to regret. I also noticed that many of the in-wall speakers I had been looking at didnt handle as much wattage as these do and my receiver puts out 140 watts per channel, this further simplified my decision. As stated I dont consider myself necessarily a critical listener but I would be highly surprised if many people could tell these were in wall speakers if they walked into the room blindfolded. Toughest part of the install is running the speaker wire and cutting the drywall, the actual mounting of the speaker into the wall is incredibly simple. Highly recommended after about 4 days of use.

Very easy install. Excellent looks and sound. Best built ins that wont break the bank

Great sound, great deal!
