As prices drop on HDTVs, more and more consumers are bringing home large screen flat panels and projectors and enjoying that BIG PICTURE experience at home. But sadly, many people are relying on cheap home-theater-in-a-box systems, or worse - the speakers built into their new TVs - for the sound.

Now you can upgrade your sound to match your picture, without breaking the bank. Polk's RM6750 5.1-channel surround sound system is currently available from J&R (and some Amazon marketplace sellers) in black or titanium finish for just $249.95. That's $350 below the list price of $599!

Here are the links:

And if 5.1 channels isn't enough for you, Polk sells the satellite speakers individually as well. Add one for 6.1 or two for a fully matched 7.1-channel system. These are available in black, titanium and white finishes:

Combine these speakers with an hdmi-switching home theater receiver, like the Onkyo TX-SR605, and you'll have a compact, high quality home theater system for under $700.

Included in the RM6750 system are four satellite speakers for front and rear left/right channels, one center channel speaker, all of which are wall-mountable or stand-mountable, plus a powered subwoofer with 8-inch long-throw driver (50 Watts continuous/100 Watts peak). The satellites are rated for 50 Watts continuous power handling (100 Watts peak), which makes them an excellent match for most entry- to mid-level receivers, from 20 WPC to 100 WPC.
