On the occasional song, at a certain frequency - I heard a slight rattle too. I'm not going to tighten or open cabinets though, so left it.

Ideal for a bar / man cave / outside music though. Demos welcome

Rattling or nonmonotonic behaviour above 1KHz, reviewers pointed at?
Will take it if a friend can throw some old, unused amp.
 
It sounds to me like a rattle ... And it's not quite the bass note - it's a little higher. Of the 3 songs I did try, only on 1 could I pick it up occasionally.

More than welcome to come over
 
What's the power handling rating and impedance of these?
Interested in them for outside. Currently have a really crappy pair of sonys that came with one of their flash mini hifi systems, totally insults the Denon amp driving them!

Hi Sinbad - they're on hold for the a few days until they're heard - but according to this >>> http://www.hifi-review.com/150231-polk-audio-rt3.html

The recommended power range of the amplifier is 20-100 W.

The characteristic parameters of the input resistance module: the average meaning is 6,5 Ohm, nominal impedance is 4 Ohm, frequency setting of the phase inverter is about 70 Hz.

mkay.
Amp is about 135wrms/ch into 6 ohms. I guess just need to be careful with the volume button ;)

Let me know.
 
Yip. We had a nice session on the superb equipment I can only dream of, thanks for a time.

Before thread is closed I'd like to say, when you buy from Dolby, he tells you everything what is wrong with the goods, even it is very small things, hardly noticed. Yes, it is rattling, a sign of wearing or even premature death, but I listened to number of tracks of my choice and didn't find anything. So I had to ask, show me Dolby that bloody track! Yip, rattle came up from one speaker, but I think that with my amp and my listening habits it will never come up.
