Polk Audio CS400 Speaker

Pros: Powerful, bi-wire/bi-amp capable, voice matched to other Polk speakers.
Cons: Just a little bright.

I recently purchased the CS400i as the center channel in a system made up of Polk Rt55i's for the mains, Polk f/x500i's for the surrounds and a Velodyne VA-1250x subwoofer.

The CS400i is very smooth, blending in nicely with the RT55i's...

Pros: Clean Sound, Excellent High Range, You Can Bi-Amplify It, Very Clean Vocals
Cons: None That I Can See

I hear many good things about Polk speakers... I was sort of skeptical though because they are sold in large stores like Circuit City. I prefer brands that are sold in smaller stores... But anyway, I decided to try out Polk speakers. They are excellent...

Pros: Clarity of Dialogue
Cons: Set for Small

Center Channel Search
After comparing many center channel speakers, I finally picked up a Tannoy SC-8 and haven't regretted it. Unfortunately, EPinions doesn't seem familiar with Tannoy and there is no way to write about them so others may...

Pros: Excellent bass, perfect highs, defined mids
Cons: HUGE!!

My research of the Polk Audio CS400 is not a casual one. I have spent 2 full months searching for the perfect center channel speaker and have an extremely critical ear. Regarding components for my system, I do not settle for anything. I am completely...

Pros: Large speaker wire connectors, Solid wood cabinet, 250 Watts & bi-amping capable
Cons: A little pricey but you get what you pay for!

Hearing is believing! Listen to people when they say "Don't skimp on your center speaker". More than 50% of your sound comes from your center channel so don't settle for less than the CS400i. I first tried the CS175i but it sounded a bit flat to me. I...

Pros: sound quality.
Cons: size, is very bulky sitting on a 27" TV.

The Polk cs400i makes a huge difference to both music and movies. I originally had the cs175i but promptly exchanged it for the cs400i. The difference is phoenominal. The 175 seemed to be drowned out by my front speakers(rt600i), and the vocals during...

Pros: Great sound and imaging especially for a smaller speaker
Cons: Little bit expensive

Years ago I bought a pair of Polk RTA-11t towers after auditioning tons of speakers. I still love them and when it came time to "build" the home theater I wanted to keep them. I started with a hometheater in a box but quickly wanted to upgrade as the...

Pros: Great sound ,clear dialogue.

I've used this product for 1 year and am very pleased with it's performance in my home theater system. It is a perfect match for the RT55 bookshelf speakers that I use for front main and rear surrounds. I have had many comments on how clear movie...

When building an entertainment system, the center channel is the foundation. they are the most hardworking speakers. you cannot achieve good sound quality without a good center channel. i've used numerous center channels before and none amazed me as...
