It’s not the biggest CC I’ve ever had but it weighs over 60lbs. Click to expand... You using it standing up on edge or is that just the photo not being rotated correctly?

L lc6 Junior Audioholic Mar 11, 2022 68 0 6 May 26, 2022 #183 Picked up a Polk R400 to try it out after all the hype about the Reserve series and its trickle-down tech from the Legend series. Have to say it is disappointing: lows are boomy instead of deep (despite the size and weight of the speaker, as well as its rear ports), mid-range is so-so (probably due to a 2-way design), highs are downright poor (so much for the pinnacle ring radiator tweeter), and horizontal dispersion at 20-30 degrees off-axis sucks (probably due to the MTM design). Going through a 2-hour show with plenty of dialog and few surround effects is simply unpleasant for others in the room as well. Back to the store it goes.
