I have these speakers and couldn't agree more about the listening area. They sound good but I'm sure, if I had a better listening area, they would sound great.

Bascially for Polk you need 600 watt Monoblocks to drive these. It was a world of difference going from 150 bi-amped to 600. I can actually hear movie dialog now lol.
