Polk's compact speaker system is easy on your eye, ear and wallet

Polk’s living-room-friendly sub/sat system delivers a big, detailed sound, sleek design and decent build quality – all of which makes it superb value for money.

Polk Audio TL1600 review

US brand Polk Audio attacks the UK compact speaker market with the TL1600, an affordable 5.1 pack bristling with innovation. In the box are four bijou TL1 satellites that stand just 165mm high, plus a horizontally aligned centre speaker and a cute,...

Great 5.1 speaker package

When I bought a new 4k TV and my old Sony home cinema in a box system can't cope with UHD I took it as an opportunity to upgrade my AV receiver to a Sony xxxx. To be honest I originally planned to reuse the old speakers, but the cheap passive subwoofer...
