My home theater was built piece by piece. Nice amplifier with all Polk, these rears were my last piece. Outstanding. I mounted them firing rear downward, they sound great. Bookshelf surrounds, center speaker and front towers all sound excellent for a reasonable price. Definitely worth the cost.

I have never had a Polk product I didn't like. Starting in 1994 with my first pair of car speakers and tweeters I started to see a difference in sound quality and I have noticed that quality continue. I used everything from Sony, Pioneer, Kenwood, and the like and usually found Polk to be just about as solid as any of those if not more so.These OWM3 speakers are no exception. It is mind boggling to me how these sound so good. The picture makes them look tiny, but they are not tiny. The size is about 10 or 11" tall Id guess and about 7" wide. They are heavy... They are designed to be mounted in a lot of different positions and they come with great stands if you don't want to hang them. For surround, these speakers are amazing. The quality is great. I was scared with some of the critical reviews saying they were tinny and lacked bass, etc... Well let me say that they sound great to me for one, and for another, surround speakers aren't for bass anyway.These would be good bookshelf speakers for a small system as well. The parts are quality and these can take a lot of power and abuse. I know you aren't supposed to put speakers near other sensitive electronics, but mine are right by my router, roku, wii u, computer monitor, tv and blu ray player and they all work just fine. Not sure if these are shielded or not, but its nice to have things play nice with other things.For a surround system, these are perfect. I run 5.1 system and these are my surrounds. The sound from my system pairs beautifully with these.

I bought these to pair with my CSII center channel and TSI200 bookshelves to round out my 5.1 surround sound system in my basement. I installed them near ceiling height and aimed straight, not at an angel (the speakers allow you to mount them flush with the wall or aimed down). For surround sound, speakers should be mounted flush and above the listener as you want that sound to be ambient and pass "over" the listener.After months of use I am very pleased with their performance. They provide clear, undistorted sound and really bring a Blue Ray to life. Like all Polk speakers they have a warmer sound that many other speakers. I prefer that bit of warmth or I wouldn't have committed to Polk across the board for my setup.Frankly, if you're buying more budget level speakers, you're looking at Polk Monitors or the Pioneer Andrew Jones line. Both are excellent; I listened to all of them several times before making my purchases and it was pretty much a toss up between the Polk and the Andrew Jones. I settled on Polk because I found a special for the CSII center channel and TSI200s for a very, very good price. Adding my 12 inch sub and these for the rears was an obvious choice at that point.I am not quite an audiophile, but I do enjoy good sound, especially in movies. These can and will make your movie watching that much better. On a budget, you'd be hard pressed to find a better pair of speakers for the purpose. I'm very pleased with their performance and enjoy them virtually every evening watching sports, tv shows, or movies.I'd rate them 5 stars for performance and appearance. They're great speakers. I can't speak to their performance as anything but back channel speakers, but for that application, they're darned near perfect for relatively cheap speakers.

Since I use these speakers only as L/R Surround speakers in a 7+2 surround-sound setup, I can only say how it sounds as part of the whole setup, not for what they do by themselves! I use a speaker setup wizard in my receiver to adjust the volumes of individual speakers for 3 to 6 listening areas where we sit to watch TV.From the Amazon customer reviews, I knew these speakers were decent as Surround-sound speakers, but weak in the base. I picked them up this October to replace two KLH main speakers with 9" woofer and 4.5" mid-range which I was using as Left/Right Surround-sound speakers. There was nothing wrong with the KLH speakers, but it's base overwhelmed the main speakers and was so large my wife complained it made our entertainment room look like a used-speaker warehouse. As mediocre as some reviewers feel these OWM3 are, they do this job better than misused L/R main speakers!Our 7+2 setup sounded nice but not noticeably better than 5+1 when we played "Pearl Harbor" and "Avatar" from DVD & Blue-ray disks with only 5+1 Surround-sound audio tracks. Over Thanksgiving, we rented the Sci-fie movie "Pacific Rim" that actually contains a 7+1 Surround-sound track and I was never so captivated by an Sci-fi action movie. My son who has a Onkyo 5+1 Surround Sound system really like how the audio came out of my audio system. He also liked the way this Polk Audio speakers come across as L/R Surround Speakers, and the way they look. My 7+2 stereo system consist of a mix of well-received equipment built from a low-to-midprice equipment. It consists of:Receiver: Onkyo TX-NR626 7.2-Channel A/V ReceiverMain Speakers: a pair of really old ADC L/R floor-standing speakers with 10" woofers and 3 3/4" tweeters. They are encased in walnut and are heavy.Center Speaker: KLH with Dual 4.5" mid-range speakers (from a 5+1 Surround-sound speaker set). Only press-board case painted black.L/R Surround: Polk Audio OWM3L/R Rear Surround: KLH L/R Surround speakers from same old 5+1 Surround-sound systemRight Subwoofer: Sony SA WM-250 with a 4.75 star customer review on AmazonLeft Subwoofer: The Subwoofer from a Logitech Z-4 2.1 Speaker System with a 4.5 star customer review on Amazon. (This has a deeper base but does not sound as dynamic as the Sony subwoofer.)While our equipment is not audiophile stuff, it works quite well with the Polk Audio OWM3. I have the Polk Audio speakers mounted on the wall about level with the top of a French door. With action movies, we can hear the special effect sounds from them. I can say it works well with my setup, but I can't say it stands out. I set up my receiver to play music in "Surround-sound compatible mode" which sends sound to all 7+2 speakers. I usually turn of my Left Subwoofer when I play music or I'd get too much base. My setup wraps me in sound, and the Polk speakers pulls it weight in delivery thoroughly enjoyable music that includes pop, jazz, country, new age and musical, mostly from Pandora, Spotify and Slacker Radio.

Great sound and clarity from these speakers!They are quite slim and could be mounted easily as our back surround speakers!

Las compré para usarlas como Dolby Atmos Top Front y suenan excelente. Es la primera vez que escucho Atmos, por lo que no podría decir que ya eh podido escuchar varias bocinas como Atmos anteriormente para dar esa opinión. Sin embargo en películas y juegos se escuchan excelente y se combinan muy bien con el resto de mis bocinas Klipsch Reference Premiere en configuración 5.1.2. No eh probado con música, solo "virtualizando" la música estereo para forzarla a que se escuche en todas las bocinas pero no me gustó el resultado, ya que no se combina tan bien con el resto de bocinas. Pero no eh podido probar musica en Dolby Atmos pada juzgarlo bien. Son más grandes de lo que esperaba y me daba miedo no encontrar bases para ponerlas en el techo, pero realmente unas bases bastante comunes que son para pared (hay de marca monoprice, Wali, etc...), pero use taquetes metálicos para estar tranquilo de que no se caigan. Definitivamente hay opciones que se escuchan mejor pero que cuestan el triple o más, y leí en varios foros que estás hacen el trabajo a un excelente precio, y puedo confirmarlo aún teniendo en el resto de mi home theater bocinas de mejor calidad. Solo las recomendaría para Atmos y tal vez surround (juegos y películas, no música), pero para frontales ni de chiste. Se queda muy cortas en el rango de frecuencia ideal para bocinas frontales.

Polk audio OWM3 I connect to Dolby atmos in my Denon AVR x1600h it’s Best sound quality 👌👍

El producto llegó en perfecto estado, y el envió llegó en la fecha estipulada.Son unos altavoces muy recomendables, parecen pequeños pero cuando lo tienes delante te llevas la impresión de que son mas grandes que en la foto. Una muy buena calidad. Todo recomendable.

Good speakers for surround. Fastern is quite easy.

Excelentes bocinas para reproducir sorround trasero y atmos (en cualquier configuración ya sea techo, pared etc.), robustas. Frecuencias agudas y medias excelente, cómo es de esperar las frecuencias graves se quedan justas pero es lo que se busca en este tipo de bocina pues se usa para sonidos ambientales, funcionan muy bien con corte de frecuencia de 80HZ y 100HZ. tienen muchas opciones para instalar, pero si requieres montar sobre pared y angular necesitas una montura especial que no está incluída ni tampoco la vende Polk. El precio es alto pero es un producto de muy buena calidad, llenan el espacio sin problemas, es decir; que puedes darles más volumen desde el AVR y lo soportan sin problemas y sin distorsión.
