The Polk Audio 255c-RT is a two-way center channel speaker built for home theater setups. It uses a 1-inch tweeter and dual 5.25-inch woofers in a slim 3.9-inch-deep cabinet, so it fits under a TV or on a shallow shelf. With 90 dB sensitivity and an 8-ohm load it is easy to drive from most AV receivers. It is a passive speaker: no Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or app control, so it needs an amplifier and speaker wire. Reviewers rate it highly for clear dialogue and a wide spread of sound across the front row, and it holds up against pricier center channels from the big speaker brands.
