Great Sound Anywhere You Want It
AW/M3II:
Polk Audio All-Weather Loudspeakers deliver exceptional sound quality in ANY environment. High-quality construction gives them the moxie to endure full exposure to the elements with virtual impunity.
There are plenty of so-called "weather resistant" or "outdoor" speakers on the market. They're lining the shelves of your neighborhood Home Improvement Center. But Polk Audio All-Weather Loudspeakers are the real thing. Their sealed polymer cabinets are rugged, UV resistant and impervious to water. They won't fade, crack or warp no matter where they're installed. Their gold plated input terminals, non-metallic grilles and UV resistant components make Polk AW/M speakers the ultimate "survivor" of the speaker industry.
The AW/M3II features:
- Sealed polymer cabinets and non-metallic grilles that will not rust, crack or warp
- Polk's exclusive Dynamic Balance technology for wide response and low distortion
- Built-in wall mount bracket for easy installation
- Overload Protection Circuit prevents tweeter damage when you want to play it really loud
- Gold plated input terminals will not rust
- UV and moisture resistant rubber driver surrounds will not rot like cheap foam surrounds
- Paintable cabinet so you can paint the AW/M2 to blend into any outdoor surroundings

Review:
I bought these used to press into duty as surround speakers.When i demoed them i had forgotten just how good they sound on their own.Open,boxless,three dimensional sound is NOT just Polk propaganda!!!!

Small size and clear crisp sound with low or high volume.
Weaknesses:
Can't think of any.
Review:
I bought these speakers for my kitchen because of the colour and the Polk name. Surprisingly small package with the expected great sound, every octave is as clear as my larger monitor speakers. Wished I had spent a little more in the first place and purchased these instead of the bargain speakers I bought before! Best bang for the buck speakers for any discerning listener.

Possibly a mid-woofer?
Review:
I just bought these used. These sound stellar as a book-shelf or surround speaker. Have the classic Polk sound. I own the SDA-2's (Nothing compares to the SDA's)and am looking to upgrade to the SDA-1's. Great Job Polk!!

Sound great for suround and out door. Lots of bass.
Weaknesses:
Overload protection week. I think the heat build up inside caused the speakers to fail.
Review:
I have had these speakers for about three years. I primarily used them as a surround speakes. But now that we moved I installed them in my garage. Last night we had a projector to show the game in my garage and about 20 of my neighbors cam over to watch the came about 40 min into the game the speakers quite working. We ended up hooking up some cheap speakes from Walmart to continue on.
