Monday, February 16, 2009 - 00:08 GMT PSB hands down. I have an ancient pair of PSB Alphas (their entry level el-cheapo bookshelves) that are all beat to hell and they blow the doors off of many much more expensive speakers I've owned. I've owned Polk too.

Monday, February 16, 2009 - 02:43 GMT I agree with the guys. PSB all day long. PSB and NAD are both owned by Lenbrook and are probably the best match for each other as well. Better speaker + better synergy = Buy the PSB speakers. Don't get me started on Polk speakers.....

Monday, February 16, 2009 - 06:03 GMT I did not know that Polk Audio speakers are that bad. Almost bought Polk Audio DSW2000 subwoofer.
