I’ve only had this center for a week but, I do think it sounds amazing… and it’s a great upgrade from the Polk cs1 center. A lot of people don’t like this item because it resembles a soundbar.

This is a must have, if your running a lot of hue smart lights. You can run Bluetooth hue lights and avoid this but, you can only set up 10 devices. Anything more than that, and you will need this bridge.

An excellent Amazon product. I use the echo show as part of a baby monitor. I use a wyze cam in the baby room and have everything displayed on the show. So far everything has been great.
I don’t think it’s worth the retail price, and would wait until it goes on sale, which it does every few months.

How to fix freezing
on April 17, 2021
Posted by: Blackno1
Verified Purchase:Yes
I’m sure your read other reviews about how this player freezes while watching 4K movies. Well it does, just like all the other 4K players. It’s not all the players fault. Let me explain....
1. All new 4K players do not have the technology to catch up on 3 layer 4K discs (which most of them are these days.
2. The real problem is the manufacturing companies of the movies. Any movie that is more than 2 hours longs has to be pressed on a 100g disc (which is 3 layers, as you can see on the back) which also leaves a small amount of residue to the naked eye.
How to fix this.....
Take the disk, run under warm water, add a drop of dish soap, start cleaning it with a microfiber cloth, run under water, let dry, take a new microfiber cloth and buff the disks
This will take that residue off and your 3 layer 4 disks will work without freezing.

Is there a major difference between the Polk S15 and T15? I'm looking for front surround speakers.

The s15 has a deeper and cleaner sound. Depending on your room size, I’d go with the s20 for fronts and put the s15 as surrounds.
