  Duration of ownership: 14 Days

  Strengths: Easy to Install. Great full sound.

  Weaknesses:Slightly less bass than bookshelf speakers.

  Overall Evaluation: I bought both RC85i wall speakers and matched them with these RC80i Ceiling Speakers. I love the sound and my wife loves not having speakers sitting around. I was a little concerned with how the Ceiling speakers would install as my house was prewired and had boxes installed on the studs. Installation took me less than an hour for all four speakers. Even though the boxes (and the hole left when removed)were on the stud, the rim of the speaker still covered the hole with no drywall repair needed.Love these speakers!

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Decent sound, reasonable price

  Weaknesses:Could have better assembly quality

  Overall Evaluation: These speakers fit the bill for me to install in a finished ceiling. Just cut the hole, make the connections and tighten the screws to anchor the speakers behind the sheetrock. That is it. Fairly easy and you are done. Aimable tweeters let you experiment with the sound. Overall not bad for the price.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Decent appearance, easy installation

  Weaknesses:Made in china

  Overall Evaluation: Overall a decent speaker for the price. Fairly simple to install by just cutting the hole using the included template and turning screws on the mounting bracket to allow locking tabs to make contact with the ceiling. Sounds good but not great although the ability to aim the tweeters helps somewhat. Only had them for a few days now and I hope they last for a while since most items made in china nowadays don't.

  Strengths: Good sound, easy install, Excellent option for surround sound speakers

  Weaknesses:None so far

  Overall Evaluation: Using these speakers from last 2 months in media room as my backside surround sound speakers, using onkyo receiver with Polk RTi8/CSI-A4/PSW110 set. I am very happy with all this setup.. its an excellent quality for a reasonable price. I definitely recommend this pair. BTW, I took professional help for install. Though I think it was easy to install.

  Strengths: Great for surround sound system; pointable speaker

  Weaknesses:Somewhat Expensive

  Overall Evaluation: I installed this into a 7.1 surround sound media-room. They serve as the side-surround cpeakers. The system is driven by a Denon AVR-4306 A/V Receiver. Installation was easy (well, to be honest, it was done by my installer, but heck, he didn't charge much, so it must have been easy!!), and they sound great! We did some tweaking with the steerable tweeter to direct it to the sweet spot in the room. The polk audio web-site provides good info on this. As do the included instruction.
