Review: Brilliant set of speakers absolutely! - I have never used Pol audio before, but a fellow musician recommended it and I started reading up. Then I figured in my budget these XT20's were the only ones. I read up and did more study as sadly there isn't a place where I could go and check out multiple speaker brands myself. Thankfully the internet was of much help, saw these are and picked them up. Sounds amazing, a full clarity spectrum even without subs, sounds clean, no audible distortions even at higher volumes though I listen not at a very high volume. The lows are well defined, the mids are juicy and the highs are very well defined. Loving listening to music on these, infact I am listening more and enjoying it so much. Love it! Also yea, greaet packaging from the seller! great stuff, thank you
Review: Awsome - Though in India it is costly due to customs charges. Paired with Marantz PM6007 and having fun. Also bought Auris blueMe for BT streaming. My first audiophile system.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does anyone know why it has 2 sets of wire inlets on each speaker? Normally it's one set black and red....**
A: The 2 sets of speaker 5 way binding posts are for bi-wires or bi amps if you remove the bridges so you can by-pass the speaker cross-over. It's a waste of time and money since you will need an external cross-over.  I wouldn't bother with it at this price point.
They are as good as you can get for the price.

**Q: Does anyone know if i can get new lids for these speakers? one of the lids broke, and i am very ocd about keeping my speakers slick**
A: I blew a tweeter, called Polk, and provided my purchase receipt and answered a few questions and a replacement was in my mailbox free of charge in less than 10 days. Give them a call... You've got nothing to lose.

**Q: how many ohms and watts are they**
A: These are 8 ohms, and they can handle 25 to 150 watts. I love these speakers. A good bargain at $150.  They sound smooth and mellow right out of the box. I would buy them again.

**Q: Q: Are these sold as a pair or the price is for a single speaker? RE: Polk Audio AM4095-A Monitor 40ii sold by Amazon for $144.99**
A: I can't speak for all the other sellers but my listing is for a pair of speakers unless otherwise noted in the description

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ コスパが大好きな人、大満足スピーカー
*by H***M on 14 May 2026*

デスクトップ環境のスピーカーをMXT20に買い替えました。オーディオメインの用途ではないレビューになります。 最近アクティブスピーカー市場で流行りの傾向である｢モニターサウンド｣という言葉をよく目にするため、このシリーズもMonitor XTという名前からしてモニターライクな音を連想させますが、これは｢手頃な価格で良い音を｣というPOLKの伝統的なMonitorシリーズという意味の名称になっています。 当製品をモニタースピーカーと呼称してレビューしておられる方もいましたので注意が必要です。 MXT20は音の解像度はそこまで高くなく、柔らかな温かい音です。 高域が前に出てくる鋭さがなく良い意味で音がバラけるので、このサイズのスピーカーを近距離で鳴らしても自分の周りが音に包まれているような感覚になり心地良さを感じます。聞き疲れもしません。 シアター構成のサラウンドでMXT15を採用しているため、両者を聞き比べましたが小音量でもMXT15よりMXT20の方が良い音が出ます。 MXT20に決めるにあたり、このサイズが許す環境なら上位のReserve R100も検討しましたが、 上位モデルたちは精密で明瞭ですが、価格なりの本領を発揮するにはある程度の距離をとった方が扱いやすいです。 対してMXT20は音が広がりやすい傾向があり、このサイズでありながらPCデスク用途という超ニアフィールドの使用にも向くという上位シリーズにはない利点があります。 これがMonitor XTが入門用という立ち位置のおかげで、距離にとらわれない設置のしやすさにも繋がっているように感じます。 デスク上でのニアフィールド対策として、写真の通りスタンドで底上げし本体を上下反転しています。この設置が不安なくできる筐体なのも嬉しい点です。 何を鳴らしてもある程度の良い音ですが、やはり音楽をじっくり聴きたい時は写真の端にかすかに映っているNS-F500を使うほどには差は感じます。完全3wayのフロア型と比べるのは酷ですが。 R100と比べてもほぼ全ての音楽ジャンルで上を行かれますが、メタルやロック、EDMはMXT20の方が合っていました。 私の用途は上記の曲調と似た傾向になる動画やゲーム、youtubeなどのPCの日常使いがメインで、作業用にジャズを流すのでMXT20の前に出てくる明るい特性がマッチしています。 日常使いのアンプはZA3を使用します。このアンプのクリアな特性にR100などのピュアオーディオスピーカーを組み合わせてPCで質の悪い圧縮音源をメインにした場合、解像度の長所が逆に音の悪さを暴いてしまう聴き辛さになる懸念もありました。 オーディオ用途が多いパッシブスピーカーをPC使用目的にした場合、MXT20の””音の緩さ””はたぶん正解で、しかもこのサイズのスピーカーをデスクで鳴らせる事でPCで遊ぶ時間がリッチになり、音は大事だと再認識しました。 なら高度なDSP補正のあるアクティブスピーカーでいいのでは？とも思います。確かに中高域の明瞭さは負けるかもしれません。しかしほとんどのアクティブスピーカーはサブウーファーを追加して完成するシステムで、私はサブウーファーが苦手で気が付くと使わなくなっていました。 日常使いでサブの低周波はかすかでも疲れる、でも気持ちの良い低域は欲しい人にもMXT20はいいかもしれません。 MXT20は非常に評価が高いですが、価格的にも高望みは厳禁です。しかし価格も性能であり、なおかつこの音なら全てを黙らせる納得感はあります。長く付き合っていけるスピーカーだと感じました。
