Polk Audio Signature S15 Speaker Review

This is a review and detailed measurements of the Polk Audio Signature S15 bookshelf speaker. It was kindly sent to me by a member for the review and costs US $229 per pair. If I did not tell you the price, you would think the S15 retails for $1000 given its very nice and "high-end" looks...

I just ordered two, been buying their video cards for years and the CEO/founder is an huge audio fan. AK4493 for that price, I'll chance it and maybe replace the Soundblaster AE-5 in the downstairs computer too.

If you don't use headphones, record and/or DSD, the Creative AE-5 is your choice. If you like to use headphones, record and/or use DSD, the EVGA NU Audio is a good choice. The major problem with the EVGA NU Audio is that the driver/software is pure garbage and EVGA refuses to update it anymore.


I'm pretty certain the old Polk Audio signature series is getting discontinued, which is a shame. I didn't think the signature elite would replace it judging by the prices. If it is, I hope the MSRP goes down to the old prices like when the Signature replaced the RTI-A Series.

New People: If your not gonna return, I would always recommended Crutch Field, $10 OFF if you choose slower shipping.

It is not an affiliate link. At least not that I am aware of.
I have no affiliation with JBL or anyone.
 
Focal Elegia is new at $379 on Adorama, or they show an open box for $359. I've bought both from them in the past and usually $399 is the lowest they'll go on them. They do free shipping, and if you have a tax certificate for a business they'll deduct that if you contact them first to upload the information.

OK, cool. I only noticed because I copied and pasted it into a message to a friend. It is unusual, in my experience, to use the word "affiliate" in a marketing campaign link, but companies do weird things like that all the time.

In case it wasn't obvious, my post was meant to draw your attention to what I assumed was an inadvertent error on your part. I certainly wasn't trying to accuse you of intentionally posting an affiliate link, but I now realize that may be what it sounded like. If so, I apologize. In hindsight, I wish I had just sent you a PM. I was half asleep and it never even occurred to me.

No worry.
I wasn't offended.
Just trying to be clear that I'm not an affiliate. If there is one in there it isn't helping me. Hopefully it is going to a good cause/person.
I just love the 530's. I hope a few folks grab a pair at these prices.

That's too bad. Because I ordered three sets. If it is an affiliate link, somebody is going to have a very nice Christmas!
 
I too had resisted jumping on the 530 train for a long while but $240 tax- and shipping-free I couldn't resist. Thanks for the heads up.

I don't think it is. I believe RickSanchez was right. At this price, they are a great deal.

My comment must be misunderstood. I think they are such a great deal that I ordered three sets. I bought one, they came, and I liked theme enough to order two more sets. If the link had been an affiliate link, somebody would have gotten paid three times. Yes they are more than a great deal.

Sorry for not being clear. I meant I don't think it is an affiliate link.
