First of all, there's the sound. Second, the price is great. Third, the sound. Did I mention the price?
Weaknesses:
Marketing. Does Polk Audio know how awesome R10s are? Please make a powered version compatible with computers.
Review:
These speakers are stunning. I have very picky musician's ears, but after about ten years of listening to all types of music through these I've yet to find anything to complain about. I like them so much that I have an extra set in my garage, just in case. Really, these are like the Steinway of bookshelf speakers, especially for the price.

Great highs and midrange.
Weaknesses:
Smooth but weak base but with a sub that's water under the bridge.
Review:
Overall these R10's are a geat addition to any surround sound center. They deliver sound that can not be matched by any speaker that is in this class. For a 100 watt speaker I challenge anyone to (of course depending on your budget) to find a speaker that will hold a candle to this little jewel.

I recently purchased these speakers brand new for $38.00 each on clearance and I am very pleased with the sound of these speakers I also listen to the R15s and I wonder why they were made,they sound the same as the R10s.Anyway I couldnt be happier.Thanks Polk!
