Polk Audio RM510 Review
The RM510 is a 5.1 home theater package that consists of 2 RM8 satellites—equipped with two 2.5-inch midrange and a 0.75-inch tweeter, 1 RM8 center channel, 2 RM7s and a PSW110 10-inch subwoofer. I paired it with my Onkyo SR875. I have the subwoofer connected by the LFE input. I ran Audyssey with them and set my RM8s and RM7s at 120Hz and 125Hz respectively.
What can I say, I’m blown away. The sound is clean, crisp and very bright. This is perfect for a medium to a large room. If you want a big sound without the bulk and the high cost, I highly recommend this. The physical set-up was easy. The brackets provided also comes with a paper template for easy wall mounting. The included screws and hardware also look great. If you’re using a high gauge speaker wire, the +/- inputs on the back of each speaker are a very small and somewhat difficult to connect. Other than that, I’m going to really enjoy this system.
I looked at buying the RM6750 for a long time but eventually decided on this system. The RM6750 has a fairly bulky center speaker and larger satellite speakers. The sound is awesome, crystal clear and beautiful. I have a fairly large room. I had read some complaints that the subwoofer is not loud enough. This is not the case in my system (room acoustics probably). The bass booms and I ony have it turned up half way. I have nothing but good things to say about this system. Great system for the price. Go out and buy it, you’ll be happy.
