#69 Polk Signature Elite ES20: $359/pair Bhphotovideo eBay
Pros: A full-size, efficient 6.5-inch bookshelf pair with unusually deep bass for the price. ASR measured 41Hz estimated in-room extension, a well-damped Q of 0.66, broad horizontal coverage to roughly +/-60 degrees and a 5.54 preference score with a subwoofer.
Cons: Predicted in-room smoothness of 0.238 and directivity-index consistency of 3.81 are average rather than class-leading. The deep cabinet needs substantial shelf or stand space, and its Power Port still requires rear clearance.
How it compares: Just above it: NHT C3 - $266 more, 1Hz higher bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: Aoshida Audio Musician Knight I V2 - $1740 more, 2.7Hz higher bass extension (-3dB).
