I got the pair of Polks last year and fortunately I got them for a pretty cheap price about 200 $ , which is 200 $ less than its original price. I did not get a chance to listen to them until recently. At first I thought it was a break-in issue because they sound very harsh, bright and fatiguing on my ears. Now that I have been feeding them music for a week, i don't hear any improvement. When i play classical music on it, it sounds real but also fatiguing. It sounds the worst with electronics music, which is my favorite. Polk Rti A3 absolutely murdered many of the techno songs that I played on them. Very boomy, bright and harsh. You can almost compare them to a pair satellite speakers. I now regret the decision of selling my primus 162 for these polks. I have to say i am utterly disappointed. By the way, I bought those speakers online based on the positive reviews of the buyers on Amazon. Does anyone think the same of the polk speakers as I do?
