Just a Good Looking Great Functioning Speaker

I had an inexpensive Klipsch speaker blow and started the process of replacing all of my satellite speakers with these. They have surprisingly clean sound and were, of course, easy to set up just a good mid-range (in terms of cost) satellite speaker

Fantastic, invisible sound

I've always been pleased with Polk, I moved to a new house and swapped my black TL speakers with these white ones to blend into the bookshelves on the sides of the TV. They blended perfectly and sound terrific!

Great sound for a small package

Really great sound quality in a small package. I replaced 2 larger Polk speakers that were taking up real estate on our mantle and we didn't lose any sound quality or power.

Great purchase

First speakers i've bought in years, no regrets they sound great, even better after I used the auto calibration on my Sony home theater receiver. Definitely want to use in conjunction with a powered subwoofer as they are small and do not have overwhelming bass, but that was expected with the small size.

Small and not-so-mighty.

They're... okay. I'm "upgrading" from a full set of ancient Sony SS-MB100H with sport substantially larger woofers (5") and are ported, allowing for pretty decent low-end on their own. The TL2s, on the other hand, seriously lack in bass response (a low cutoff of 125 Hz!) and on their own can sound pretty cheap, frankly. HOWEVER, when mated with a good subwoofer, connected to an A/V receiver with detailed EQ controls, and part of a multi-channel system (as opposed to just using them as a pair of stereo speakers) they delivery bright, crisp sound that definitely belies their size. They're currently teamed up with a TL2 center channel (similar complaints, making EQ adjustments even more vital, particularly if you use DPLIIx for music listening) and the three of them produce a solid, unified front soundstage. Some of the old Sony's are acting as rears until the TL1's come in, and they seem to all play well together (the individual channel EQ adjustments help facilitate that).

Polk TL2 - OK

Very good speakers, but based on the reviews I've read I expected better. Probably unrealistic, and for movies, they're great. For TV shows like the voice, when listening to the performances, I need to crank the volume a bit to get the sounds out of them that I was expecting. Regular TV shows they work great.

Great surround speakers

Ordered these for a 5.1 system, and they have exceeded expectations. Very clear and plenty loud - I have these wall- mounted, and aimed at the listening area. Mount with keyhole, or with threaded insert (insert(s) not included). Sound great as surrounds for movies/sports, and sound equally great in all-stereo mode.

Pleasantly surprised

I bought these as a passive sound bar alternative for our living room TV. I decided that a 2.1 setup would be perfect for this application (less wire to conceal, plus its a small room). I'm feeding them 95 watts apiece from a Denon X2100. These little speakers can play quite loudly w/out distortion (got me in trouble with the wife), the tweeter is very sharp but not harsh and the woofer is just big enough to blend with an old Cerwin Vega 8" sub I had laying around seamlessly. They do well with TV dialogue but really shine with music. I know that their intended function was to be a surround speaker but they can hold their own as a set of small mains. And the price is outstanding for the level of performance that they're capable of.

Perfect for my needs

For a recently finished basement for use as a game/movie watching area and kids play zone, these speakers do what I need. Give me something to listen to music/surround sound, yet they didn't blow my budget. Easy install, sleek in design. Very pleased.

Git my need perfectly.

As the title says, it fit my need perfectly. I was looking for small speakers to mount in each of the 4 corners of my newly constructed man cave. I have all 4 speakers powered by a older Yamaha 1070 receiver at 110watts per channel. I use the speakers mostly for music and they sound great. The sound is clear and distortion free, even when the volume is way up. They are a bit Ight on bass, but not as much as I thought they would be based on reviews by others. In other words enough bass fo my requirements.

Perfect surround speakers

I had originally planned a different set of surround sound speakers, turns out the Crutchfield rep was of great help selecting the right combination of speakers! Really clear and crisp speakers for movies, TV and music! I purchased some wall mount hangers so I could aim them to where I wanted them to face as well.

Great for movies!

Great surround sound speakers. Blu Rays thru my Marantz 5.1 and PS3 sound FANTASTIC. But when it comes to music, they don't quite have the punch I'd like. But I suppose that is to be expected from such small front speakers. Nonetheless, I am happy with my purchase. I will be upgrading the front speakers though :-)

Small Speakers, Big Sound

Polk makes good speakers. TL2s are perfect for a compact surround setup with an HDTV. I'm using them with a Marantz NR1403 receiver on a 3.1 setup. The Marantz classified them as large speakers during the auto setup. They sound excellent.

Polk Blackstone TL2

If you want surprisingly crisp tones from your rear surround speakers, look no further than Polk's TL2's. How so great sounds come out of a little package has to go back to Polk's engineering. Just by changing these two speakers, (rear surround) in my setup, it awoke by 18 year old system. I can't wait to get my Polk TSi 400's and Polk CS 10 hooked up.

Terrific for a smaller space

Much depends on the ears of the listener. Polk speakers are noted for the warmth, or smoothness, of their sound quality. For a small office they are excellent when coupled with a receiver also noted for its warmth. I use a Yamaha 573 as my receiver and have Polk TL3s as center channel and front speakers. The TL2s are used for surround center and back speakers with a Polk PSW 111 sub woofer to round out the 7.1 system. For my office space these fill the room with smooth, crisp, music which is slightly warmer than a neutral, flat, sound. Since I find 'bright' or 'brilliant' music tires out my ears I prefer the warmth Polk supplies. I find the Time Lens feature that aims the sounds, especially the treble, to your sitting position a positive feature on these.

Small footprint, big sound

I replaced some surround sound speakers I have had for years. These TL2s really improve the effect. In fact, my new Sony receiver classified them as big speakers when it did the automatic setup. I tried the TL1s but wasn't happy with them. I love that Crutchfield let me send those back and get these. The customer service was amazing. The day after I shipped the others back I had a credit on my credit card!

Great Clarity / Good Power / A little more bass?

These units are used in my 7.1 system as my surround rear and side speakers. Great clarity and power out of these little guys and they look great. Love the speaker connections on them and easy wall mount capabilities. Lots of power these can be driven by a powerful amp like the Denon I got. But if your looking for more bass then you might want to look at a more traditional style speaker.

Nice Surround Speakers

Bought 2 Polk Audio Blackstone TL2 to compliment my other Polk speakers (Fronts: TSi100, Center: TSi CS10). Needed something that had a small footprint and was white. Placed them on the back wall. Once they were configured properly, they sounded great. Originally had them as front speakers with the TSi CS10. The TSi CS10 over powered them. Moved the TL2s to surround speakers and wow, they performed well. Highly recommend.

Polk Blackstone TL2

Bought 2 Polk blackston TL2s to compliment my other Klipsch speakers in my home theater. Placed the Polks on the back wall. It took a while to get them to perform correctly. The auto sound setup on my Yamaha receiver didn't do the job. After manually adjusting the distance and other settings, I finally got the volume corrected. Very happy so far. They have been in use for about 2 weeks.

Great little speakers!!!

I purchased the 5 piece set of the TL2 speakers two years ago and they have been great. The mid-range driver in one of them quit working about two weeks after I bought them, but polk replaced it quickly. Overall they are a great budget speaker, but be sure you have a good subwoofer as these speakers are too small to produce good low frequencies. Oh and if you're buying these as a set and opt to get the free PSW111 I strongly urge you to put the money towards a better sub! These speakers will overpower the sub at high volumes and sound too bright. I just recently upgraded to a PSW505 which is discontinued but can be purchased elsewhere. I have never been happier! Overall the TL2s are worth the money!

Bought these speakers to enhance the high end frequencies of an audio dedicated sound system. Coupled with a pair of floor speakers, these opened up and added more depth to the entire sound spectrum. Worth the money.

Superior Design and Sound

Since I already purchased the Blackstone 5 Speaker Package a while back, I purchased 2 more BlackStone TL2 speakers to match what I already had and to complete my 7.1 system (for use as either Surround Back or Front Height; currently being used as Front Height Speakers.) Polk sound as usual is superior and the desiign is sleek and modern. I love the black piano color. On a side note, I had to return the first 2 I ordered as both speaker casings were damged. It appeared as if this occured during the manufacturing process. Anyhow, Crutchfiled's process of return and redelivery was a breeze.

Great Speakers

Really love these little speakers. I've paired them with 2 Polk 8 inch in-ceiling speakers, and a PS -10 sub (10", 100W), and everything sounds very good together. There is great difference with the different modes, and I'm using an Onkyo tx-nr414 network receiver. From music to movies, these TL2s are great front speakers, and attractive looking too. Enjoy.
