Got 4 for a 7.2 setup they sound great
Purchased these for side and rear speakers. They sound great and we’re easy enough to install. As others mentioned, make sure you have space as they are tall. I have newer style I-beam joists and these were fine for my application.The magnetic white grill blends nicely. When I do my demos for friends they say they never noticed them until I pointed them out.

Buen sonido
Primero compre una para escucharla tiene buen sonido en agudos se oyen claro lo que se debe tener en cuenta es el espacio del plafon para que entre ya que es alta y ponerla con cuidado para no maltratar los componentes ya que no trae protección se ven geniales sin la tapa

Installed 5 in a 5.1 setup and am very pleased
As another person put it, I'm not at all a Polk devotee, but I've installed several of Polk's other less costly in-ceiling speakers and was impressed with them... so the fact that these are even better and hold up to the reviews made me very happy. I'm extremely pleased with them at all levels: sound and seeming build quality, mounting ease and aesthetics are all a notch above the lower series speakers. Most importantly, their sound quality is considerably above what I would consider average for an in-ceiling speaker--especially in the mid-bass, which is a large part of why I purchased them for my 5.1 system (hoping they would hold up to the reviews).Installation was simple (in a new home that was prewired) and they're by far the most "invisible" of any ceiling speaker I've seen; the grill is extremely low profile (probably due do the magnetic design) and as a result, it hides the larger mounting ring that is considerably more visible even in Polk's own lower series speakers. I was especially pleased to realize these had upgraded wiring posts, making it easier for them to accept and solidly clampt the larger guage wire that we had our home wired with.I was a bit nervous in using one for my center channel, but I'm glad I did--again, it blends in perfectly and my concern over the "imaging" being wrong as a result of the height and down firing ended up being a non-issue. Granted, my TV is mounted arguably a bit too high above my fireplace mantel, so this may help the situation, but while I could easily mount a traditional in-wall center directly below the TV, I'm definitely not going to waste the effort or money to do so since I'm not convinced it would do any better.While these caused me to go a bit over my original budget (my wife enjoyed heckling me about this), they've panned out to be well worh it and I would recommend them to anyone that wants an in-ceiling system that's considerably above average on all points.

Some of the cleanest sounding ceiling speakers available
These are some of the best sounding in-ceiling speakers available, provided you have the height clearance available in the ceiling space. The Polks have a very clean and detailed sound unlike many other ceiling speakers. Would recommend them if you are appreciate great sound quality but dont want big obtrusive speakers sitting in the room.
