RM705 system
6-Piece Compact Complete 5.1 Home Theater System (Includes Sub)
The Best Complete System Value Ever
Everything you need for state-of-the-art compact home theater in one complete package
You're about to experience today's best value in a perfectly matched, pro-quality, compact home theater system: the RM705 6-Piece Complete RM System. Four high performance, super-compact RM7 Satellite Speakers matched with a hard-working, detail-oriented RM7C Center Channel Speaker and a specially engineered, compact 50-Watt Powered Subwoofer. Unpack it, set it up, connect it to your receiver, and you've got the excitement of dynamic, thrilling surround sound with deep bass for movies, gaming and TV.
Convenient 6-Pack Packaging
The RM705 is everything you need for a compact home theater system, all in one package. Nuff said.
Acoustically Ideal Triangular Enclosure Design
This cute little speaker is a sophisticated work of acoustic alchemy. First, there's the Reuleaux Triangular Polygon shape. We didn't construct them this way just for looks, even though they do look pretty cool. And we didn't do it just so we can say "Reuleaux," even though that's pretty cool, too. Truth is, this specially designed shape is extremely strong. Plus, it's acoustically ideal; it minimizes resonances and standing waves inside the speaker. This eliminates the "boominess" that makes other small speakers sound "muddy," and delivers superior midrange performance and lifelike imaging.
Anti-Diffraction Baffle
Remove the grilles and observe another little gem of Polk Audio acoustic engineering: The anti-diffraction baffle. Exhaustively tested and modeled to produce the sophisticated accoustic sculpting, the anti-diffraction baffle delivers the largest possible dispersion pattern with virtually no edge diffraction or distortion. The wide, lifelike soundstage proves that you can have small speakers without sacrificing big sound.
Composite Driver Technology
Working in tandem with the shape of the compact enclosures are specially engineered drivers made from strong composite materials. Polk Audio's patented Dynamic Balance technology scientifically tunes these driver materials to produce an excellent flat frequency response, with sharp detail, transparent imaging and the ability to play loud without any strain, something you won't find in other small speaker systems. RM sound is always clean, clear and effortless. These are small speakers that can really keep up with the action on your big screen.
High Performance Tweeters
Woven Silk Dome Tweeters deliver superior imaging and smooth highs.
Multiple Mounting Options
Put them on the TV stand. Put the Center Channel Speaker right on the TV. Put them on stands next to the TV (use Polk Audio's own custom-designed SA Stands, made to compliment the look of the RM speakers). Hang the speakers on the walls. Use articulating brackets to aim them perfectly. RM Series speakers weigh just 3lbs, so you can put them virtually anywhere and move them easily. But don't be fooled: high-tech lightweight composite materials allow Polk Audio to engineer in the high performance you expect, without the high weight. RM7speakers come with secure wall mount brackets. The RM7 Center speakers are Magnetically Shielded for safe placement near your monitor or TV, and come with custom-designed surface mount cradles for easy placement on any flat surface.
Easily Add Additional RM Speakers
Today's RM Series Speakers are mix-and-match compatible, so you can buy them in sets or in pairs and build the compact sound system of your dreams, 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 and beyond. All RM Series Speakers are professionally timbre-matched to sound perfect together no matter what the configuration. Sound effects moving around your room will sound the same from speaker to speaker; this is truly convincing surround sound.
Famous Polk Dependability & Durability
Like all of our products, the RM Series uses only the best materials coupled with the most advanced manufacturing techniques on the planet. All Polk products must pass a battery of the most physically strenuous and exhaustive performance tests in the industry, including drop testing and extreme signal response testing. Polk Audio loudspeakers are proudly built to perform for a lifetime.

15 out of 15 people found this review helpful.Strengths:
Clean, crisp highs, good midrange and a thumping bass. Great price point through Amazon.
Weaknesses:
The tiny wire prongs connectors should be bigger and not so cheap. I bought the Monster wire connectors to help make a great connection.
Review:
First I bought the Sony Soundbar which was quite good for what it was, but I knew there had to be more. So, I bought the Polk RM705 system to pair with my new Onkyo TX-SR507 A/V Receiver. The sound is so outstanding. I thought the neighbors were knocking on the wall but it was the Subwoffer thumping away. Love this setup. My dad now has the nice little Sony soundbar.
