Could anyone tell me if these speakers would go well with the polk audio psw111 subwoofer?

If your audio-video receiver is properly set up, then yes, they would sound and perform very well with that subwoofer. However, the speakers themselves have enough good bass response that the subwoofer is truly not needed. I have a powered subwoofer connected to my system and it has to be turned down to bare minimum to prevent it from overwhelming the Polk speakers output.

Jeanine, I have a 5.1 system (4 polk RC85i speakers (two on each side), once center speaker and the subwofer). My place is similar to yours. In my opinion your distribution could work very well...

I use mine with a sub woofer. They are nice speakers but have no low end, so a sub woofer is a must.

They will work.For an idea of the sound quality see the many reviews of this product - many from advanced audiophiles. They only have 3.5" woofers so you can't expect them to do a whole lot with deep bass, however, in my opinion based on the TVs (CRT, Plasma & LED) I've owned they will be able to out perform most TV built in speakers. I enjoy them for surround speakers in 7.1 systems (not for Left right or center channel) where I also have a Subwoofer, and I like them very much.

Everything matches up. All the speakers plug into the subwoofer then the lines from the sub go into your computer's 5.1 sound card. Remember its for a computer and is only accessible with the 5.1 sound card. Hope that helps

They should fit since the speakers are about the same size as my Polk TL 1's.

Probably, yes. Polk's R series are garbage, that's why they are so cheap. Their next model line up, the Monitor series, can often be had at deep discounts from newegg. The Monitor series have a full 1" tweeter, as opposed to the Primus's 3/4" tweeter. Or get the Primus 152 and spend $100-200 on a decent subwoofer if needed for home theater.

SimonYour setup should work the only problem I see is that the speakers you have may not get enough power but they should sound good, when I setup this speaker it was a pain trying to understand what type of series should they be installed in, but the polk audio has 4 leads red, black green, and white please follow the instructions very carefully and try only one speaker at a time. When this unit is connect correctly it sounds great.

They woould be very bright, crisp and clear and would diffently need a subwoofer. I've always been a Klipsch fan and would recommend something larger for the main speakers if you have the room and the budget but overall these would work really well.

Depending on what your other speakers are, I actually think they would be a pretty good speaker as a high or wide. The reason I said that it depends in your other speakers is because you typically want your speakers to be timbre matched, otherwise it does not sound quite right. I believe that these are timbre matched to the Polk tsi or monitor speaker series.

I don't see why not depends what size your Polk is just buy the same size and install. I will say this those. I have 2 of be p1 in the enclosure Rockford fosgate box you can get off the website and they rock. Ones gonna be much louder then the Polk sub you had for your home theater it looks like. Just googled the Polk sub idk what you really had.

If they are being used as surround speakers, they should be fine. If they are to be used as main speakers you will not have good bass response or volume without a sub woofer.

I have them paired up with a 12" CerwinVega. I think they hold their own. Great speakers.

I need to clarify something on my last answer... There are no built in subs in these speakers. They have dual 6.5 inch ported woofers. The low end sound they produce are more than adequate for my needs. If you choose to add a separate sub to your system, I feel you won't need much as this model of speaker carries the low end quite well

These would be great. They are a well balanced speaker for their size. They even work good for mains teamed up with a sub. For the price you can't go wrong. They sound better than speakers twice the price.

which speakers do you have? the same? If you do the connections right yes they will work fine.

Absolutely. I am using mine with a subwoofer - the sub compliments these speakers well.
