Our take on the Polk Audio Monitor XT60 Floorstanding Speakers

The Polk Audio Monitor XT60 is a slim floorstanding tower speaker sold one at a time, so a stereo pair means buying two. A 1-inch Terylene dome tweeter, a 6.5-inch bi-laminate paper woofer and two 6.5-inch passive bass radiators give it a rated 38 Hz to 40 kHz range and bass that reaches lower than most towers its size. At 86 dB sensitivity and 4–8 ohm compatibility it runs from modest receivers up to 200 W per channel, and the 5-way binding posts take bare wire, pins or banana plugs. It suits buyers building a stereo or Monitor XT home theater who want full-range towers without a subwoofer, though the passive radiators demand some room around the cabinet.

Pros
  • Deep bass for its size from two passive radiators
  • Extended highs to 40 kHz from the Terylene dome
  • Easy to drive at 86 dB across 4–8 ohm amps
  • Slim tower footprint that fits beside furniture

Cons

  • Passive radiators can sound boomy close to a wall
  • No built-in amplification or room correction
  • Bass output won't match a dedicated subwoofer in a large room

What reviewers say

Owners of the Monitor XT line generally describe the XT60 as strong value for a full-range tower, with clean highs and bass that surprises for the cabinet size. Common complaints center on placement sensitivity and the need for a capable amplifier.

What people mention
  • BassPraisedOwners say the passive radiators give low end well beyond what the slim cabinet suggests.
  • PlacementMixedListeners report the bass tightens with distance from the wall and can boom when pushed into a corner.
  • TreblePraisedThe Terylene dome is described as clear and detailed without sounding harsh.
  • Power needsCriticisedAt 86 dB sensitivity, owners say weak amplifiers run out of steam before the speakers do.
  • ValuePraisedBuyers call it a lot of tower speaker for the money compared with pricier floorstanders.

About the Polk Audio Monitor XT60 Floorstanding Speakers

The Polk Audio Monitor XT60 is a slim floorstanding speaker for stereo systems and Monitor XT home theaters. It pairs a 1" Terylene dome tweeter with a 6.5" bi-laminate paper woofer and two 6.5" passive bass radiators. It is sold individually.

The tweeter reaches up to 40 kHz, and the frequency response runs from 38 Hz to 40,000 Hz. The crossover frequency is 2,200 Hz. Connections are made through 5-way nickel-plated binding posts.

It works with stereo amplifiers and AV receivers that drive 4 to 8 Ω loads. Use it as a left or right front speaker in a Monitor XT home theater, or as a main speaker in a 2.0 or 2.1 setup. Place it on a stable surface and leave some space from the rear and side walls for the best bass.

Questions and answers

Do I need to buy two for stereo?
Yes. Each XT60 is a single speaker, so a stereo setup needs two. A home theater adds the matching center and surrounds.
Can a small receiver drive the XT60?
It can, but 86 dB sensitivity means it likes power. Polk recommends 25–200 W per channel, so a receiver rated near the top of that range will play louder with less strain.
Do I need a subwoofer with these towers?
Not for most music and movie use. The rated 38 Hz low end covers most content, though a subwoofer still helps in large rooms or for heavy bass effects.
How does the XT60 compare with the Monitor XT20 bookshelf?
The XT60 is a floorstander with two passive radiators, so it reaches lower and plays louder without stands. The XT20 needs a subwoofer for deep bass but takes less floor space.
What connections does it accept?
Five-way nickel-plated binding posts take bare wire, spade lugs, pins or banana plugs, and the speaker works with 4–8 ohm amplifiers and AV receivers.
Does it need to sit away from the wall?
Give it some space. The rear passive radiators and rear port work best with a foot or more behind the cabinet, which also keeps bass from getting boomy.
