Infinity or Polk for cheap system?

[Phatferd]

Who generally makes the better speaker for the cheap entry level speaker system. I was all set to purchase the Polk RM6750 at Fry's for $200, but saw these Infinity TSS-450 speakers for the same price. I know they are both cheap, but it's all I have in my budget right now.

Here are the 2 speaker systems.

Now you've got me!!!! Both are great speakers but I'm bias. Infinity. Do it - do it now I say (LOL). You can't miss with either one of these.

I stand corrected - the Infinity system is 50 bucks cheaper - with your budget (and your wife to be) get the Infinity hands down.

Thanks, these are both the same price at Fry's and I have one 5 minutes away. I think I'll go with the Infinity due to your recommendation.

The infinity system looks to have a better subwoofer, but the Polks have better specs all around...

I was all set to pick up the Polk yesterday with Onkyo 605 from CC.
All was set until the salesman at CC started being a dick and try to weazle his way out of the 10% coupon they have going on right now.

Its some solid built speakers and they sound great.
I realize that Amazon have them cheaper than CC, so I am not pissed now that the sales guys was being a dick.

If these were car speakers...Polk wins hands down.

Home speakers? i'm sure they make quality sh*t. Pardon my french.


...how much of a difference would you notice if any? who knows. Probably none. Might as well save some money.

Save Money I say Infinity.

Quality I say Polk.

I have had Polk for a long time, I have been very happy!
They are a USA company and stand behind their product.
I do have the higher end equip. but I started on entry level and was happy but I found some great deals next thing you know I was hooked. And the subs are quite nice I have the psw505 and a velodyne very similar sounding except the 505 only cost me $250.00 a fraction of what the Velodyne cost me.

Absolutely love my polks, fantastic quality and great pricing. +1 Polks.

I'm not an audiophile but I got the Polk 6750s a few weeks ago, and they are awesome!!! I can't believe how good they are, I have the Sub set a little higher then everything else, but it rocks! Watched Fast & the Furius Tokyo Drift on HBO and they rocked the house!

Also they are very easy to mount on the wall. I just used herculies hooks you don't need to buy a separate bracket for them.
