I do believe I got that one right, as the RT3000 is further evidence of a new line and a new age for Polk. The RT3000 system is comprised of four pieces, two sub-woofers and two satellites. To my mind, this automatically gives them a leg up on the competition. Small speakers, with their compact and inherently sturdier enclosures, are usually more free from panel resonance and seem to be less colored than their larger brethren. Unless they are heavily braced or are built from VERY thick or acoustically dead materials, all of which dramatically increase cost of manufacture, the larger panels tend to flex and resonate.
Midrange coloration can be astonishingly low, even in budget- priced speakers.
The Polks under review are no exception. The other two pieces of the RT3000 are the sub-woofers. Likewise the smaller satellites can be positioned for best performance. This makes for a rather flexible system. But the flexibility does not end there.
