Deal Details
Polk markets these as "Outdoor" speakers because they come in a weatherproof enclosure with built-in wall mounts, but they are perfectly usable as surrounds or Atmos (heights or on-ceiling) channels indoors when crossed over to your subwoofer(s) if WAF requires a compact form factor and if budget is limited.

Having a decent-sized 5.25" woofer means you don't get the thin, tinny sound of 4.5" or smaller single-woofer speakers. You also get a capable 1" tweeter (not the lousy 1/2" or 3/4" tweeters of tiny speakers). Result: solid 90db sensitivity and respectable 50Hz mid-bass extension, which means you can use it with the standard 80Hz high pass crossover point not 100 or 120Hz as requried by lesser speakers that will result in some male voices coming out of your subwoofer.

Before our usual SVS shill comes along to talk these down, compare these with the lousy SVS "Prime" satellite which costs $200 EACH while giving you a puny 4.5" woofer, dismal 85db sensitivity, and independent measurements that starkly contradict the manufacturer's wishful 69Hz F3 claimed spec:

Of course, that's before a certain someone entered The White House and started all the tariff wars, and more recently, an actual war with Iran. Good luck finding them at $281 again any time soon. They were $295/pr for barely a day, on March 30.
