Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Let me start out by saying that all my previous systems were Hbid all in one Sony crap factories. I'm actually a TV and radio engineer, but I've never been willing to spend the money on my own consumer grade audio equipment....now I'm glad I did. This system is incredible. I got it with the Yamaha 667 receiver, so basically the receiver was free; too good to pass up.
Pros:
Amazing sound...it's like I'm in a movie theater
Quality design; speakers are well built and heavy and the shine on them is great. sub looks like a piece of art
Great mounts and 16 gauge cable included.
Packaging was immaculate; reminded me of Apple products
Professional gold connectors on rear of speaker; high quality
powered sub with adjustable levelsCons:
Cable for surround is a little short (typical length for surround cable included with most systems)
Speaker set is really expensive if you don't get the deal with a receiverThis set comes with small speaker stands and mounts if you choose to mount the speakers. I mounted all of mine and they sound amazing. If you want to mount the speakers, you'll need two screws for each speaker and drywall studs if that's where you're mounting them. The speaker cable is more than enough for the fronts and about 33 feet for the surround.
I'm breaking these in with "Dark Night" right now and it sounds incredible. I'm still playing with the settings for my receiver, but it seems like little adjustment is needed if you don't want to. I turned up the surround a little cuz I like a louder surround effect.
If the deal to get these with the Yamaha receiver is still available, I highly recommend this purchase.
I don't have too much comparison for Polk or other good speakers, but I can honestly say that these speakers both look and sound incredible. Unless you're an extremely picky audiophile, you will not be disappointed. This is one of the best purchases and best deals I've ever received.
If you're tired of the crappy Hbid systems, this is a must have. If you're not satisfied with the amazing speaker sound, I guess you can always use the 4 satellites for surround and get a couple Polk fronts or something.
Note: My living room is about 15X40 and the sound is still great. Went out for a smoke and wondered if my neighbors wanted to kill me due to the bass.

Exceptional sound quality takes advanced engineering. To deliver an extraordinary listening experience for today\'s high-definition entertainment, the HKTS 20 satellites and subwoofer have gone through Harman Kardon\'s world-class engineering and design process. This process gives the HKTS 20 system the performance of a system costing many times its price
