Somebody took pictures of the oven, maybe Chau or Kelly?
With overheating protection which automatically cuts off power supply when the temperature of oven exceeds 360°C
I found some more information on the Heng Wei oven: .... Ideally, you want a real oven burner, though, with a pilot light and safety features....
No Jeff it just cackles to life when the temp drops enough. Thanks for taking an interest. Any ideas on how to construct a deck oven from scratch?

Breakthrough in printed electronics
Access-print tickets, produced by printed systems, in use at the trade show Chemnitz
A world first in volume printed integrated electronics circuits was exhibited at the recent Plastics Electronics trade fair in Frankfurt. The Institute for Print and Media Technology at Chemnitz University in Germany has developed a new process that enables electronic circuitry to be produced with mass printing technology. The new process will enable the mass production of very cheap integrated circuitry in paper and cardboard and can be expected to have massive consequences in manufacturing, the future of RFID and the blurring of the line between printed objects and the virtual world.The first practical applications are expected to be electronic printed maps and printed paper keyboards, closely followed by labels for clothing, luggage, packaging, ticketing and after that … almost anything.

I talked with politician with a mind of his own
Toeing the party line has gotten to be the way we do business these days.
But it was refreshing to hear there are some, at least one, that is bucking the trend to follow along like a herd of cattle.
I was talking to someone this week who is running for office. He was giving me the general breakdown that he feels good about where he is in the campaign and that he thinks he can win when Nov. 8 rolls around.
The thing that was refreshing, though, is that when his party tried to manhandle him into running his campaign in the same cookie-cutter format it was having the rest of its candidates run, he said no.
Apparently, the dinosaurs in charge were not particularly happy with his decision.
"When all is said and done," he said. "I have to make decisions based on the overall good of my district. If I start cowtowing now to the will of the established system, we will never move forward, as a district and then as a state and a society."
He is absolutely right.
One-size fits all really doesn't.
What works in New York doesn't necessarily work in Mississippi and what works in Gulfport doesn't necessarily work in Greenville or Hattiesburg or Columbus.
We need more people in office who will think for themselves and make decisions based on the good of the people and the state and not, specifically, (Dean Kirby) on the impact said decisions might make on their colleagues during the next election cycle.

by Loren Barstow Music lovers and movie buffs alike will enjoy the smooth, clean sound of the Polk TSi300. Its silk tweeter delivers sparkling highs, while two polycarbonate woofers churn out accurate mids and lows. The braced MDF cabinet fights resonance so the details in your music and movies shine through. Dual five-way binding posts let you bi-amp or bi-wire the TSi300 for even better performance — a rare feature for a speaker in this price range.

At the base of the speaker you'll find sturdy stabilizer feet to keep it anchored to your floor, regardless of whether it's carpeted or non-carpeted. And since the speaker's footprint takes up less than one square foot, you can enjoy authoritative tower speaker sound without sacrificing a lot of space. Got wire? Most speakers don't include any.

Great Front Speakers for Surround Setup Written By Anonymous, Texas on Monday, April 20, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sounding front speakers in a 7.1 setup. They are paired with PolkAudio BlackStone 250 speakers.
Great value for the price ! Written By BruceG, California on Friday, April 17, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are matched with a pair of Polk R40 speakers - the sound of the TSi300 Speakers is spacious, has depth, and for me represent great value for the money. I am an audiophile who started in the sixties and, have owned JBL's, Klipsch bookshelfs, KLH, and Advent Speakers ! Love the sound quality ! Pros: Quality build, spacious sound with great depth. Reasonably priced. Cons: None
Excellent Sound Written By TomB, California on Thursday, March 05, 2015 Excellent Sound for the price Pros: Sound Price Cons: None
Quality sound and good value Written By Clark, North Carolina on Sunday, February 08, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am very satisfied with my choice and the sound advice Crutchfield people gave me in making this choice. The 300s sound very good in my 11X11 studio with hardwood floors. No subwoofer required since I listen mostly to jazz and classical music. They are an especially attractive choice now since they have been discontinued and discounted. Pros: Quality sound at an excellent price, well suited to my music and my space. I don't need to but for fun I plan to bi-amp them. Cons: None
Smooth and fun Written By Singlespeeder, Pennsylvania on Sunday, February 01, 2015 I sold Hi Fi...OK, mid fi, back in the day when Polk was just making their mark. I loved Polk speakers, they were the Toyota of Hi Fi back then, they just went about making musical speakers and allowed beer budget, budding audiophiles a taste of the good stuff. They sounded great on all kinds of music, and they were affordable. Nothing has changed. I love this speaker, it is in a word, sweet. I threw jazz, classical, Metallica, you name it at this speaker, and it took it all in stride. They look good, take up little space, and with the port at the bottom, they aren't as picky about placement as some other ported speakers. They aren't perfect though. I ran them in a typical living room setup with and without a Polk sub, and with old school NAD amplification without a sub. I also compared them directly to the Pioneer SP-FS52 designed by Andrew Jones. The Polks are fabulous with a sub. However, so are the Pioneers. The Polks deliver a smooth, uncolored sound with fat (in a good way) bass, and a slightly boxy, recessed mid range. Very pleasant to listen to on all types of music. However the Pioneers have a more refined mid range and high end that showcase the Polk's flaws. The high end is detailed, but a bit forward and splashy, where as the Pioneers are more detailed and controlled. Bass is tighter and more accurate with the Pioneers, and there is more punch and speed evident. I like em both, and I'm keeping both! Polk brings it, but they can be bested. Pros: Smooth, musical, wonderful bass, smart looking in a small footprint. Bi-amp capable. Sound great on a variety of music. Don't need a lot of power to shine. No serious flaws, affordable almost audiophile sound. Polk continues its tradition of hitting above its weight. Many hi end speakers fall short of the Polk objective of creating speakers for music lovers without the bloated price. Kudos Polk. Cons: Splashy high end, less punchy dynamics than some competitors. A little chesty sounding. Nit picking, really.
Good looking and plenty of sound Written By 1NRA, Florida on Tuesday, January 27, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I put a set of these with a CS10 and they match great. I have two (2) subs so these are for mid and highs only which takes some burden off the cones. Pros: Loo great and sound great.
Just Right! Written By Antoine, Louisiana on Saturday, January 03, 2015 The TSI300's are very nice! they sound great with my Yamaha RXV-465. When I hooked them up, I thought they sounded distorted on the low end. The bass just would not come out smooth no matter how low or high I adjusted the bass. I added a Polk sub and got the same results. The sub was distorted too. Just when I got fed up and was ready to return the speakers, I clicked OFF the sound enhancer button on the receiver and Bingo, the bass and everything else was fixed! The bass was clean no matter what I did to the EQ and at any volume! Smooth, clear, quality sound with movies, music, etc.. with or without the sub. Sounds even better WITHOUT the center channel(sold the center). The Yamaha rxv-465 sound enhancer was the problem(sounds bad on music with bass with any speaker). A Pair of tsi300's, a sub, and a a/v receiver capable of 2.1 surround sound sounds just right! Pros: Sounds great and they ain't cheap looking! Can't go wrong with the 300's Cons: What?
Great Written By Mike, Niskayuna, new york on Monday, December 08, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers sound awesome! Pros: For the price, these area steal. I haven't even put an amp on them yet. Cons: None
Polk fan for life. Written By Sound Synergy, Dania Beach, Fl on Sunday, September 28, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent speakers. Great for front left & right of a surround sound system. Impressive performance. Pros: Sound quality, clarity & style.
Outstanding performance. Bravo Written By Michael, Bangor, MI on Wednesday, September 24, 2014 I have paired these speakers with a Yamaha a1020 in Bi-amp mode. In stereo mode with the sub turned off, these speakers have a sound and clarity that is nearly indescribable. From stereo sound to front channel job in movies, they can't do wrong. To see what these could do for an old amp I connected them to a Kenwood VR-306 from 1998, Bi-wired. Nearly the same result, the a1020 is a hard act to follow. On the other hand, I would recommend the TSI300's for those looking to add clarity and depth to an aging system. They allow for later expandability with a present day upgrade. It's hard to find fault in the design. I would expect something of this caliber to be twice the cost but, thank you Polk and Crutchfield for not making that so. If you're looking for quality, you found it. Pros: Frequency Response Bi-amp/wire Capability Sophisticated Appearance Cons: None to date
Clean sound. Very good. Written By Otash, Houston on Sunday, September 21, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Overall best speakers I purchased so far. Sleek solid black wood casing, superb quality sound. Adds a lot of style to any living room. Loving it!!!
Polk TSi300 speakers Written By Arthur T, Syracuse, NY on Thursday, July 24, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great Sound Quality, beutifull finish Superb value Pros: sound quality,finish Cons: nothing
Floor Standing Speakers: Polk Audio is the GREAT! Written By Willie, Stone Mountain, GA on Wednesday, June 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Enjoying the sounds from my Polk Audio TSi300 Speakers. They are super for the price! The bass is sightly stomping and the treble works excellent with the bass, all sounds so clean and pure. Loving them! Pros: Great sound for the value, nice futuristic appearance, Cons: Would like to have more of the Polk audio type speakers, the bass could be bit more powerful,
Excellent Value Written By Elblat, Socorro, NM on Friday, May 23, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Even after reading the reviews and doing the research, I wasn't expecting such a lovely-sounding speaker at this price. What other reviewers have said is generally true, they do sound a bit bright at first but that does seem to mellow out just fine. The low bass is weak as one would expect for a small speaker but it is clean and tight and rolls off smoothly with no hint of port noise. I use them with a subwoofer in a small room so the bass response is not an issue for me. What Polk appears to have done here is match a capable tweeter very precisely with a well damped and baffled ported woofer system. The result is clean, detailed highs with nice imaging and sound stage, no noticeable humps, dips, or resonances all the way down to where the bass falls out yielding musical midrange and accurate mid-bass. I am very pleased with these and they actually sound better to me than some much more expensive speakers (purely subjective of course as the setups and rooms were different). They get more than loud enough for me in a small room and don't seem to strain or color when driven. Voices and instruments sound real, which to me is the ultimate criterion. Lastly, our bird seems to enjoy them. The first time I tried them out the bird perked up and started dancing and singing to the music, much more enthusiastically and happily than with the old bookshelf speakers we were using before. The bird still loves them, so they have one bird's approval as well. Pros: Great sound! Inexpensive! Can get loud but stay clean-sounding Look quite nice Decent sensitivity Cons: A subwoofer is helpful/needed The dual binding post system is a bit finicky
Polk Speakers Written By TonyO, New Jersey on Sunday, March 23, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Jury still out.....sound is nice.....but I guess that is the problem..it is nice. They dont hit you with the crispness I expected. Paired them with a Marantz CR610 receiver......just lacks "drive"...if that is the right word Pros: nice sound. Good profile...looks good in room Cons: not enough punch or sizzle
BLAST EM Written By Brandon, Duluth, MN on Thursday, March 20, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I lucked out and picked up these for a song! On super sale last fall 2013. Bi-Amped them with 90 watts to each set of binding posts. Cranked them for about a month and fell in love with the POLK TSi series. Since then I bought the CS20 center channel, and the TSi 400's,TSi 100's and the 440pro wi sub. Im a POLK fan for life. The TSi300's broke open into great sound after that first month. Now seven months into their break in I'm eve more impressed. Crutchfield is my source for expert knowledge and great service. Pros: Value, Sound, Quality. Looks. ETC... Cons: None. TSi 300 is a solid buy.
Excellent Sound Written By DariusB, Boise, ID on Monday, March 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Not an audiophile, but I know what I like. These speakers are primarily used for a home theater set-up in a medium sized room...probably 18' x 18' but open to a larger great-room. These speakers are combined with a Polk CS10 center channel and RC80i rear speakers...and a 12" sub. I can't compare this set-up with anything else since it is replacing a non-surround set-up. There really is no comparison in that regard. This set-up provides an imersive environmentfor both movies and gaming. I've watched movies at other' house that have the smaller kit speakers and I can say that these provide a much more rich and full range sound. They met my expectations and exceeded my needs for the price. As a minor plus, they look nice as well...the piano finish on the top is a nice addition. Pros: Full range performance, looks. Cons: None
Great sound, great looks, Polk quality Written By Tom B., Allentown, PA on Thursday, February 06, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These have become my front speakers for my 3.1 home audio system, and my primary speakers for playing stereo music. There is nothing more enjoyable than sitting on the recliner, closing one's eyes, listening to a great piece of music, and imagining each instrument as the Polks project its clarity. You'd swear you were surrounded by the orchestra! Pros: Typical Polk quality in design, manufacture, finish and sound! Cons: None
great full sound Written By Anonymous, Salt Lake City, UT on Wednesday, January 08, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The TSI series creates a full sounding effect that has made my new theatre room the place to be. Pros: Great sound and look
Sounds good to me Written By Rupe, Shalimar, FL on Thursday, December 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sounds and looks good, but not audiophile quality, which is expected for the price. I previously used Polk bookshelf speakers for the left and right channels and was satisfied. They moved to the front high position, making the overall system sound more realistic with these on either side of the TV. Pros: Good sound quality for the price Cons: None
Polk Audio TSi300 Written By Anonymous, oil springs , ky on Monday, December 16, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) wonderful full sound
Full Sound Outstanding Value Written By ptc4wvu, Williamstown WV on Sunday, December 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) You expect big sound from a big speaker and you get it from this speaker and them some. I have been very pleased with these speakers that are the "2" of a complete Polk Audio 3.1 system that includes two of these TSi300's, a TSi CS10 center channel and PSW108 subwoofer. I am powering these speakers with a Sony STRDH720 AV receiver and watching on a Sony KDLEX720 TV. Pros: Big Sound Attractive Easy Installation Cons: Tall
Great product Written By Jeff, Newbern, Tennessee on Wednesday, November 13, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are amazing! I am extremely pleased but I can't imagine how much better the more expensive Polk speakers could be. Love the piano black finish! Pros: Beautiful sound! I've rediscovered my music! Cons: _______? Nothing!
THESE SPEAKERS ROCK Written By Bmaz, Palatine, IL on Sunday, November 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased these TSi's as front speakers for my 7.1 home theater system in my family room. My system is a Sony 46" XBR HD TV powered by a Marantz SR 6005 AV Surround Home Theater Receiver. The front speakers are the Polk TSi 300 floor speakers with a Paradigm Cinema CC Monitor Series center speaker and a Infinity PS 28 powered subwoofer. The back speakers are Definitive Technology Pro Monitor 800 bookshelf speakers and Mirage Nanostat satellite speakers for the surround sides. The size of my family room is approx. 20 x 14 feet. I just watched the Blu-Ray by Marvel "The Avengers" in 7.1 audio and like I said it rocked the house down. The high and low output from the new front TSi 300 speakers is amazing. This is quality at a great price. Pros: Smooth Sound of Speakers Cons: None
Extremely Happy Written By Anonymous, Denver, CO on Wednesday, October 23, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Love the sound and look of these speakers. Pros: slim design, sound quality & price
Polk TSi300 Great speaker for the price Written By Rusty, Harrisonburg, VA on Monday, September 09, 2013 I researched a number of speakers in this price range and found the Polk TSi300 to have the best all around performance. They are versatile speakers that can be used as mains, as I do, or in various arrangements equally well.
A great buy Written By JAM, Clarkston, MI on Monday, September 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Fantastic mains for my home theater! Pros: Crisp and clear sound.
Fantastic sound from all around Written By kztoy, Bellaire, TX on Monday, August 19, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Polk speakers sit on both sides of the couch and are pointed to the recliner across the living room. Even sitting in the middle of the couch, the sound is incredible. I have to look around to verify that no one is playing the music live behind me. The value of this purchase through Crutchfield is excellent, the speakers sound great and there are no shipping/handling charges or tax. Pros: Mid- and high-range response is great! Cons: Bass is acceptable for the large volume of living room (16x18x20). I retained the use of my Klipsch subwoofer to help complete the aural experience.
Doesn't get any better for the money you pay for these!! Written By Pedrin, Toa alta, PR on Monday, August 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've compered these speaker with many other well know speaker companies and I have to admit that I was amazed when these ones came up to the stage. I wasn't a big polk audio fan but after listening to the "cheap small" tsi series I was sorpised. The speaker Very well built. Quality materials and a very unique desing that matches any moder decoration (my wife likes them) again these are the bottom and smallest in the tsi series. Bi-amp capable which is very rare in this price piont. Performance Vs, klipsh, energy (floor stander) and infinity and bose, I have to say that polk was the best to my ears. You got it let it break in. These don't have that much bass you really need a sub for home theater application. The mids are clear but the heights are very impressive even at very very hight volume. Over all they are the beets for the money even though there are better speakers then these. If you are looking for great performance without sacrificing you wallet this is the way to go. Crutchfield is amazing the transaction was smooth and incredible fast shipping. I got all the tsi series and the cs10 with a psw111 that I got for free back in December!! Pros: Advance features in low cost speakers. Performed better then expected!! Very stable and reliable! Great looking too!! Small for a floor stand speaker but big sound. Cons: Tweeter is not in the top part of the cabinet, I'm tall, when I sit down the tweeter is not to my ear level. Sound great anyway!

Polk Audio TSi300 Written By Anonymous, Fort Wayne, IN on Wednesday, June 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Clean and stylish look. Sound is clean and clear, I wasn't looking for super loud. Just clean and crisp sounds.
PolkAudio TSi 300 home speaker Written By Sonic_Boom, Carson City, NV on Saturday, June 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the second TSi 300 I bought, I recently upgraded my HT system to TSi 500's(4), for the front and surround and a pair of TSi 400's for the rear. Like a lot of people I put the "old" system into the kids room. It has four TSi 400's and two 300's, and a CS10. I like Polk Audio TS series speakers because they look nice, aren't real expensive, sound great for what I payed, and are readily available. I don't need a ton of power to get good sound out of them, they don't eat up a lot of floor space. I'm using an older Yamaha 7.2 A/V amp. in the other room with a PS3 and a Sony 52" XBR5. In an average sized room with this set up, and two Polk PW10 sub woofers, it's great for most movie/game use. Also Polk has been making these for awhile, I bought 4 TSi 100's in '08, so if I need to add or upgrade I can mix and match and they sound good together. My system is now one 400 short so I'll be buying another one of those soon. All in all I'd reccomend these speakers to someone looking for a great sounding, inexpensive, attractive, well built speaker that still sounds fantastic even after years of use. Another nice feature is the floor standing ones are versatile, easily to place, move around, and have pointy feet to keep them located. Anyone looking for a bookshelf type speaker may be interested in these as they are at the right height for listening. Pros: A lot of people sell them, Big box stores sell them at a discount in an "open box" condition, so pricing is attractive. They match other manufactures finish(s). They have good mid and high range, bass output is descent, however for movie watching(I watch Blu rays), I think a sub woofer is a must with these types of speakers, two subs would be even better I guess. I think I own twenty or so of the various sizes in the TSi series, from the 100 to the 500's, never had any problems with any of them. Cons: None really, If I had to do it over again, I'd save up or find some TSi 500's on sale or whatever and get those(space permitting). Other than that for under $200(ea.), the TSi 300's are a fine sounding speaker.

review Written By mike, the woodlands, tx on Thursday, May 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) good quality for the price Pros: affordable, nice finish, good performance Cons: none
Stop looking and buy this speaker! Written By KeithM, Durham, NC on Wednesday, May 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Beautiful sound - Attractive price. The Pold Audio TSi 300 speakers are fantastic. These speakers handle any and all material played through them quite well. Admittedly, I was listening for the low end performance and they sound particularly good on when playing movies and and games. Can you get better sound? I suppose so, but get ready to fork out several thousand more dollars to get marginal improvement. Call Crutchfield and order these now. Pros: Fantastic sound and excellent price. Cons: They are tall speakers.
Great Sound Written By Moley Russel's wart, SW on Monday, April 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are great sounding speakers. I replaced some older (1974!) Panasonic Technics speakers and I couldn't be happier. I'm no expert audiophile but I do appreciate crisp clear and clean sound coming from my sound system and I am getting that from these. I bought a pair, one was "Scratch & Dent" and the other was "Open Box" which saved me about $60.00. I can't find a scratch or a dent and the "Open Box" was re-taped so all-in-all that was a good deal. Pros: Terrifically clear sound in beautiful cabinetry. Awesome service as always from Crutchfield. Cons: Had I acted a week earlier and bought them when they were on sale I would have saved about $125.00. So...no cons.
Polk TSI 300 Speakers Written By Don, Minocqua, Wi on Sunday, April 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I paired these with the Denon 1913 AVR for a nice addition to my Music and TV experience Pros: Wonderful sound and quality. Great for the price. Cons: None
much better than expected Written By ted d, buffalo ny on Thursday, April 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) i purchased these speakers on a"whim", didnt need them, i have 3 other pairs of very expensive speakers. i was researching another product for a friend and stumbled across these by accident. for the price i had to have them. these speakers are being powered in a 2 channel system by a 200 wpc adcom power amp and a tube pre-amp, a system in which they have no right to be in and they sound great ! do they compare to 1000.00 pr. bookshelfs ? no, but they are worth every penny i paid and even at the regular price, i would buy them again. Pros: plenty of detail , very smooth overall , more bass than you might expect Cons: can sound a little "woody" in the mids on some material
Very good speaker....for the money. Written By Warren S, Seattle on Wednesday, March 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I like speakers that look beautiful as well as sounding great.....The veneer cabinets of the TSi300 are stunning (I have the cherrywood finish). Now for the sound...these speakers are quite good for the money. I have not heard a better pair in the $400 price range. Good bass response, although not quite as defined as I prefer but again, for the money this is a killer set of speakers. I use them for the TV, playing DVD's and CD's, and I'm very happy with this purchase. Pros: Stunning looks, very good sound. Cons: Bass is slightly muddy, though not bad.
Great value speaker Written By Todd, Central, IL on Tuesday, March 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers have great presence in a room. I give them a five-star rating based on value basis. I purchased these on sale. I don't feel you can get a better speaker for that price. I feel that they are still a good value at list price which is twice that amount. The speakers could have a little more bass but that's what subs are for. There is excellent sound stage, tight bass and clear highs. Overall, I am very satisfied with these speakers and I have recommended them to friends. Pros: Good looking, great sound and very reasonable price. Cons: Could use a little more bass
Polk TSi300s Cherry Written By TomF, Buffalo, NY on Sunday, March 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) A definite uprgrade from my 15 year-old Polk bookshelves. Good look. Nice sound. Seem to be overpowered by my Polk CS20 center channel - even though they are bi-amped to a Yamaha AX-A720 Aventage receiver. Pros: Crutchfield service is a nice throwback to when service meant something. If I had thought to ask, they probaably would have suggested bumping up the towers.
Review for Polk Audio TSi300 Written By Mitch50, Northern Cal on Friday, March 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Hooked these up to a Yamaha surround sound amp and a couple of Polk Audio book shelf speakers with a Sony center channel speaker as well. They sound fine. No complaints. I didn't expect alot of big strong sound, and they don't put out alot of big strong sound. They're nice low end speakers. Pros: Nice low end speakers for a surround sound system. Cons: They're not big on bass or powerful strong speakers. But I didn't really expect that with small 6 inch speakers. Good speakers but not going to impress anyone.
Very Happy Written By Thantous, Mi on Wednesday, December 19, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I absolutely love these speakers. I also bought the CS20 center and PSW111 sub. They sound freakin' awesome, couldn't be happier. Pros: Inexpensive, sound fantastic Cons: None
Nothing short of AWESOME!!!! Written By Fran W, Philadelphia, PA on Thursday, December 06, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am not going to talk this up as al the other reviews do, but I will say if you do not mid the towers on your floor and want AWESOME sound...This is it! Bang for the buck, hands down the best sounding sysem I have ever put together... Pros: Everything Cons: They are towers so if you do not want things on your floor this could be a con. To me, it ROCKS!
Great speakers Written By WAR, MD on Tuesday, September 11, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Really nice speakers for your surround sound especially if you have the entire set. the TSI 500 TS I400 TSI300. Pros: By the entire set Cons: You'll have no problems and you won't go wrong
Great Hi's & Mids Written By Old Folks, Jaxksonvillw ,NC on Wednesday, September 05, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sounds great in Hi's and mid ranges and OK at low-will add a sub woofer to fill in. Looks great and the narrow stature fits well in the confind area \

Extraordinary Written By E. Figarella, San Juan Puerto Rico on Monday, May 21, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The speakers for the price are awsome because the sound comes crystal clear, tight and neat. It will improve any speahers system and the sound at ear level gives an extraordinary surround sound. Thanks for the assistance of your consumer services personnell.
Polk Audio TSi 300 Written By J.B., Lawton (America), ie...Oklahoma on Sunday, May 13, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) After having spent about 3 months with these speakers I have found them to be suitable to my current needs. They replaced a pair of Cerwin Vega RE-38's that I had for about 10 years that walked off a cliff like a pair of lemmings along with my Sony receiver. Due to budgetary issues I had to start back at the bottom end (in my opinion) in putting together a new system. The TSi's though are in no comparison to the Vega's in the bass department, but they stand on their own in the area of sound clarity. I have always been of the opinion that bigger is always better, but the TSi's have somewhat changed my opinion in that area. They take up much less real estate and I have paired them with the Polk Audio PSW111 sub-woofer which makes up for their lack of outlandish bass that I had been used too (though not fully, but it does hit those lows in just the right spots). I have everything connected to a Denon ARV-1911 which I am growing more attached to everyday. Looking forward to putting my pennies together in order that I may purchase Polk Audio's more advanced RTi A9's down the line and further upgrade the sub and the rest of my components. Pros: Sound clarity, small overall imprint, quality construction. Cons: None.
TSi300 Written By RickG, Charlotte, NC on Sunday, March 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought these as my primary front speakers for a 5.1 system in my main living area. I use them for about 50% music and 50% tv/movies. I wanted to get the 400's, but my available floor space had me limited. I was concerned the 300's might disappoint me. The Crutchfield rep told me I needn't worry, especially if I was going to Bi-amp them. I bought them knowing I could return them and trade up, if needed. He was right. These speakers fill my living area (with a vaulted ceiling) with rich and full sound. I am totally satisfied. Thanks, Crutchfield! Pros: Bi-Amping these speakers really turns them on. Cons: Non
Polk Audio TSi300 floor standing speakers Written By Tom S., Juneau, Alaskas on Friday, March 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Polk Audio TSi300 floor standing speakers are amazing, along with the other Polk speakers I purchased for a 7.1 surround sound system. The speakers were easy to set up, option of bare wire or banana plug. They are impressive looking and sound even better. A great speaker for the price. Cons: none
awesome Written By bob22566, rhode island on Thursday, February 09, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) bought to replace 15 year old bose bookshelf speaker, WOW, sold me right away. Now im looking for another s 4 for my basement. Im usinfg for surround front. You will love these Pros: sound,quality,style
huge improvement Written By harry homeowner, Woodbridge, VA on Saturday, February 04, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I used two of the Polk TSi 300's to replace the front speakers in my theater room and they make a incredible difference! I also purchased a sub, but these speakers could allow one to even skip the sub-woofer (although 500watts of sub-woofer is nice). Anyway, I'm no expert, but the clarity and shear crisp "loadness" of these speakers is amazing....needless to say, I like them. Pros: sound quality and look Cons: none to note
Polk Audio TSi300 Written By PL, Indianapolis on Saturday, August 20, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound for the price! I have both tower speakers and center channel, the ideal combination for a great crisp sound.
No Subwoofer Required Written By MikeM, Charlotte, NC on Monday, May 23, 2011 I bought these speakers because I wanted a small fullrange speaker without having to use a Sub. I live in a townhouse so sometimes when I watch a movie or listen to music I get a text or phone call from the neighbors. Without a sub I can turn the TSi's up and have enough bass to enjoy video or music. No more complaints from neighbors. One more comment....With the two 5.25 drivers these seem to have better midrange than some bookshelf speakers with a 6.5.
Polk Audio TSi300 Written By Jon M., Woodbine, MD on Friday, March 18, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Outstanding sound quality from these mid-tower speakers. I am using them along with other Polk speakers for my 3-D home theatre system and they are wonderful! Especially with the Polk subwoofer, I have terrific surround sound since I am using these mini-towers as my rear surround speakers. Great value for the money, IMO!
Great for theater fronts Written By WFN, Madison, NC on Wednesday, March 09, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased a set of TSi300's for my front left and right. I'm using them in a bi-amp configuration by taking the speaker jumper bar out and using the Denon surround amp for the upper speakers. Sounds very nice. Not sure why, but I actually liked the sound of these over the TSi400's even though they are more $$.
Polk TSi300 delivers robust range Written By JMidge, North Salt Lake, UT on Wednesday, March 09, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This pair of Polk TSi300 speakers, in combination with the matching CS10 center channel, deliver a rich, full sound, even without subwoofer. With subwoofer added, the speakers churn out good mids and highs. But I also enjoy this set without the subwoofer, allowing the three dual-woofer speakers to weave together the entire range of solid lows and crisp highs.
Love them!!! Written By Tinchdogg, North Central, IA on Thursday, February 10, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I love these speakers. Not only do they sound fantastic but they look excellent on each side of my tv stand!

Rich Sound Written By David, Danville VA on Thursday, January 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Polk Audio TSi300 speakers are great. I bought to use as my Front Speakers in my Surround Sound design. The quality is terrific and also delivers very good range while listening to the stereo or CD's. Great "bang for the buck"!
GREAT SPEAKERS!! Written By DEX, VISALIA,CA. on Monday, December 06, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) i was able to demo this speakers for a whole weekend played "bohemian rhapsody by queen live,heavy metal, slow rock, pop and jazz.impressive to say the least it does lack the low end a bit to make it complete,highs are crisp,mid range clear.good performer over all!
Wonderful! Best in price range! Written By Michael, Los Angeles, Ca on Sunday, November 07, 2010 Did a listening test side by side with many other speakers and absolutely loved these speakers hands down. They are so crystal clear...you can hear each individual sound! Originally I bought a Yamaha RX-V467 receiver with these speakers and never could get it to sound right. I found that it had ridiculously high distortion rates, so I returned it receiver and bought a Pioneer VSX-33 which has 110W RMS per channel. I then bi- amped these speakers which provides 220W RMS total EACH which made these TSI300s absolutely come alive. It's incredible how even a entry-level receiver can kill the capabilities of a speaker. ***Try to have a quality amp with clean power...low T.H.D. from 20hz-20khz! My Pioneer is .08% from 20hz-20khz while driving all channels at 110 watts *CONTINUOUS* each. To clarify bi-amping to those who do not know: These speakers come with two sets of inputs, if you want to attach only one set of speaker wires, thats great, just hook it up to either set of inputs. If you want to bi-amp then you (MUST) remove the metal bar that connects the sets of inputs. Then your receiver...which ALSO has to support this bi-amp feature...will dedicate another set of inputs to the speaker and you'll use two wires per speaker. The thinking behind this is that you separate the tweeters from the woofers and dedicate clean power to each. So if possible, I recommend bi- amping these speakers. Regardless, they sound amazing for their price range...you won't be disappointed!
Nice Speakers Written By BIGGRUSS, Cibolo, TX on Sunday, October 10, 2010 I got these speakers to go with my Sonos B250. I was alittle skeptical about the Sonos 120 not having enough amp power to push these speakers. Boy was I wrong... These speakers rock, the highs are crystal clear, the mids are nice and tight. And no need for a external sub woofer. These speakers can handle the lows just fine!!! I love the sound quality of these speakers. I listen to all genres and these speakers are very nice with my sons hiphop, my wifes latin and my jazz. These speakers are up to the task. I love them, they will get there 1st real test this weekend, when we have a party at my house. If it goes like I am sure they will my friends will be impressed.
Wicked Loud!!! Written By Josh, Boston, MA on Friday, October 08, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers are wicked Loud. I was looking to update my surround system in my living room. I have an Onkyo TX-DS797 which puts out descent power, about 210 watts per channel. I cranked these up and it is honestly too loud sometimes that i have to turn it down. They sound great listening to music and even better when watching movies. I was most impressed with the range of sound that is produced. I heard things I've never heard on songs I've listened to 100's of times. Another thing, I expected these speakers to produce clear, accurate sound but did not expect them to produce much bass, I was wrong. These speakers make my house rattle more than my old 250 watt powered sub, while still produce clear accure sounds. I would recommend these speakers to anyone. I'd buy them again in a second.
Excellent Sound Written By Dan, Huron, OH on Sunday, March 28, 2010 I bought a Polk sub PSW-111 to make my old surround sound better and it did a great job. Now that blu-rays have been around my old receiver doesn't decode DTS etc. So I upgraded to a Yamaha rx-v465. This made a such an improvement, but I was still lacking the mid-range sound. I was thinking about getting the polk surround rm85's but after listening to them in the store they didn't impress me. So I checked out the TSi-300 and was amazed. Once I got them home and hooked them up and ran the YPAO I was blown away. For music there is no need to have the sub and when it comes to movies, my neighbors now hate me. The entire sound stage is flawless.
Polk Audio TSi300 Written By David, Louisville, KY on Sunday, November 29, 2009 These speakers sound amazing. I am playing them through an old receiver that I do not know where i came from. It sounds very good through this receiver. I am hoping to buy a Yamaha RX-797. These speakers are a very good buy for the price. I might also add I listen to music more than movies or ball games. I do not know how they would sound for those purposes but they serve my purposes great.
Polk's TSi 300 Floorstanders. Written By Rob, Albuquerque, NM on Thursday, September 10, 2009 Ya know, people it seems spend an awful lot of time fretting over who else thinks they've made the right choice in speakers, what brands people favor, etc. For me, it's just about the music, plain and simple. I want to hear detail. The singer breathing in and out, I want to hear the squeal of calloused fingertips on guitar strings, the roughness in a vocalist's throat from singing in smoky rooms until late at night with not enough rest between venues. I want to close my eyes and feel like the band is right infront of me. And if that's what you want, no fancy processing, no crazy 7.1 setup, just plain, pure, straight-shot music, this is what you need. These speakers powered by a Yamaha RX-797, no sub...that's amazing. Every detail is there without a stupid amount of bass to muddle the details and drown out what really makes the songs I listen to immersive. Elegantly simple. Love it.

Dickey aiming to help Blue Jays stay tough on KC
Righty Guthrie looking to help Royals even set at Rogers Centre
The Blue Jays may be double-digit games behind in the American League East standings, but they're embracing the role of spoiler.
After a 3-2 win in the opener against the Royals on Friday night, Toronto will send R.A. Dickey to the mound on Saturday afternoon looking for its fourth win in the last five games. Dickey will be opposed by Kansas City right-hander Jeremy Guthrie.
Dickey, last year's National League Cy Young Award winner, is coming off a strong outing where he allowed just one earned run with six strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings against the Yankees last Monday. He's recorded two straight quality starts at Rogers Centre with just four earned runs in his last 13 1/3 innings.
"He gave us just what we needed," manager John Gibbons said. "He was brought here to win games, and that's all that matters. He's on a nice little roll. He's pitching pretty good, so he's got to feel good."
Guthrie is also coming off a strong outing -- snapping a personal three-game losing streak on Monday against Tampa Bay. He allowed just one run on six hits with three walks and five strikeouts in an 11-1 rout.
The right-hander held the Rays scoreless through the first three innings before giving up a leadoff double and RBI single in the fourth. He loaded the bases with a single, double and a walk, but ended the inning with another strikeout.
"We had a couple of tough situations and I was really pleased to get out of them," Guthrie said. "I don't think I pitched great, but it's almost like we won in spite of me, and I am happy to stay out of the way of what those guys were doing with their bats."
Guthrie will make his 28th start, as he is 13-10 with a 4.19 ERA and 95 strikeouts in 171 2/3 innings. The Royals have won 16 of his starts and the bullpen has allowed just one run in those games. The 'pen has a 1.24 ERA in his 27 starts.
Blue Jays: Janssen looking to continue as closer
Right-hander Casey Janssen has been nearly perfect in save situations this season and has provided a bright spot for the Blue Jays, who are 13 games below .500.
Janssen is 4-1 with 25 saves in 27 opportunities and a 2.86 ERA to go with 38 strikeouts in 44 innings. With a $4 million club option for 2014, he looks like a bargain for the club.
"The focus is always on staying healthy, finishing strong, and putting yourself in a position that the front office, and the eyes that are on you, are satisfied with you as a product," Janssen said.
Janssen entered Spring Training in a competition with Sergio Santos for the closer's role, but Janssen is hoping he's proven himself this season.
"I don't think anyone aspires to be vice president. I think everyone wants to be president," Janssen said. "I love being a closer; I enjoy the pressure, and being able to impact games."
Royals: Bonifacio making first appearance in Toronto as an opponent
For the first time since he was traded from the Blue Jays to the Royals on Aug. 14, Emilio Bonifacio returned to Rogers Centre.
Bonifacio batted second and started at second base on Friday night -- going 1-for-3 with an RBI. Since joining the Royals, Bonifacio -- who hit .218 for the Blue Jays -- has raised his batting average to .230.
"First of all, I have been getting more time and getting the opportunity to get my timing back, that's the main thing," Bonifacio said. "I feel pretty good at the plate. It was a little bit hard playing one day and then not.
"But I gave 100 percent every time [the Blue Jays] needed me. I know it's a long season. I just kept working hard and tried to get better every day."
It didn't work out for him in Toronto, but Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said he's still pulling for Bonifacio.
"He's a guy you root for," Gibbons said. "It's early over there, but hopefully he has found a home. He's a guy you always root for because he's a quality guy, and he's very talented."
Worth noting
• Guthrie has faced Toronto 19 times, all with Baltimore, and is 3-7 with a 3.46 ERA.
• In seven games with the Blue Jays, Ryan Goins is batting .423 (11-for-26).
• The Royals are leading the Majors with 122 stolen bases. They've swiped 35 bags in their last 20 games.

10.11.2013 /
Red Bull KTM Factory's Polish rider Taddy Blazusiak picked up his second victory on Saturday night in Boise Idaho at the penultimate round of the 2013 AMA EnduroCross Seriesto draw equal with Factory FMF/KTM rider Mike Brown in the championship points. Brown, who led the table before the race, was fourth on the night.
Mike Brown got away well in the first heat but crashed in the first corner, then again in the wood chips moments later. He regrouped in sixth place, moved to fourth but finally finished in fifth and returned to the pits to prepare for the LCQ. Taddy Blazusiak took the holeshot in his heat and led the first lap before he tipped over and allowed Gary Sutherlin to make a pass for the lead. He recovered the lead in lap two and went on to pull a 14-second victory gap.
In the last chance qualifier Brown took the holeshot but fell again in the wood chips. He rebounded and began to chase down Kevin Rookstool in the lead. They were side by side in the final dash but both had difficulty in the wood chips. Brown was first out to take the win and transfer to the main event. The riders then lined up for their hot lap to determine gate pick order. Brown was second fastest and Blazusiak was fourth to set up a battle between the two KTM riders.
It was Brown who took the holeshot when the gate dropped but Blazusiak was right behind him. Then when Brown got stuck on a rock on the first lap both Blazusiak and Cody Webb slipped by. Blazusiak and Webb rode wheel to wheel as they battled for the lead then Webb edged out Blazusiak as they rounded the corner, knocking Blazusiak off the track. On the sixth lap, Webb also went down in the wood chips and Blazusiak closed up to take the lead. He then pulled away and was seven seconds in front at the drop of the flag.
Meanwhile, behind the leaders Brown stalled his bike with three laps to go and allowed Colton Haaker to make a pass. Brown recovered and went on to finish fourth. The two KTM riders now head into the final round at Las Vegas on November 23 with 130 points each, a 20-point advantage over Webb. Brown has scored more victories this season but Blazusiak, who has dominated the competition in recent seasons is looking to retain his title.

Georgia State Park in top running for $100,000 recreation grant
August 29, 2011 Update
-- Amicalola Falls is now #9 in the list, but it's not too late for you to help it move up. Vote on
as often as you can until Sept. 6.
The top 3 parks win $25,000, $50,000 and $100,000 in recreation grants.
ORIGINALLY POSTED JULY 18 ~~ Three of Georgia's State Parks – Little Ocmulgee, Amicalola Falls and Florence Marina ~~ are currently in the Top 10 list vying to be named "America's Favorite Park" and win a $100,000 grant. The contest is part of the America Is Your Park campaign which encourages families to get active outdoors.
Americans will decide which park wins by voting at Coca-Cola's LivePositively.com website, uploading photos and videos of their favorite park, and checking in via Facebook Places. In addition to the top park receiving a $100,000 recreation grant, Coca-Cola will also award $50,000 and $25,000 to second- and third-place parks. These grants will help restore, rebuild or enhance recreation areas where people can play and be active.
"We are so excited about this contest and what the grant money could mean to our visitors," said Georgia State Parks Director Becky Kelley. "If everyone in Georgia took the time to vote and rallied their friends and family to do the same, we have an excellent chance of winning. The money could be used for hiking trails, fishing docks, picnic areas or any number of projects that our visitors could enjoy for years to come."
While the contest is open to any national, state or local park, it was a smaller state park in Minnesota that won last year. Bear Head Lake State Park received more than 1.6 million votes and beat out hundreds of other parks for the title of "America's Favorite Park." Their visitors helped spread the word, conducted voting drives and energized online social networks to beat out even Yellowstone and Grand Canyon national parks.
Georgians can learn about their state parks at GeorgiaStateParks.org then vote at LivePositively.com. Citizens can vote as many times as they wish until the contest ends September 6, 2011.
Fans of Little Ocmulgee State Park in McRae, Ga., have been organizing Facebook "power votes" where they encourage friends to vote at specific times of the day. Amicalola Falls State Park in the north Georgia mountains has been spreading the word through Appalachian Trail websites. The Friends of Florence Marina State Park, based in Omaha, Ga., has organized email campaigns to their volunteers. Currently the three parks are ranked 2, 3 and 7 respectively.
The America Is Your Park initiative was developed in collaboration with the National Park Foundation, America's State Parks, and the National Recreation and Park Association.

text: Everyone agrees. Really, really good. But Crab Shack/The Bear Den owner John Hill said that last week, just as the big New Year's rush for orders hit, he arrived at his new business to find about 625 pounds of live crabs no longer alive. "Someone put soap in the tanks," he said. "When I got there, there was an ungodly amount of soap coming out of the tanks. It also really, really stunk." When asked if he had enemies, Hill said, "That's kind of a long story."
