The Centerpiece of Your System

Clear, Focused, Hi-Res Sound

Monitor XT30 maximizes your enjoyment of movies, TV and gaming with crystal clear, focused dialogue, effortless bass, and dynamic, high-resolution sound. Hi-Res Audio Certified, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X compatible, and in a modern, affordable design, the MXT30 fulfills the Polk promise of great sound for all.

Powerful room-filling sound

Certified Hi-Res Audio Performance

Monitor XT30’s Terylene dome tweeter enables playback beyond the range of human hearing—up to 40kHz—ensuring an airy, clear, high-end energy and spaciousness that you’ll not only hear but feel. Its high-resolution performance is perfect for the enjoyment of sound found in ultra-HD movies, multi-channel concert videos, and spatial audio mixed for Apple Music, Dolby Atmos, or DTS:X.

Surprisingly Effortless Bass

Polk has always been known for speakers that produce effortless bass that’s surprising for their size. The MXT30 is no exception. Dual 5.25” high-efficiency, dynamically balanced woofers provide a clean, open mid-range and punchy, responsive bass, with low distortion—leaving voices and music clear while filling concerts, movies and games with impact.

Dolby Atmos Certified & DTS:X Compatible

Compatible with the latest Dolby Atmos and DTS:X surround sound enabled AV receivers and 4- & 8-ohm amplifiers, Monitor XT does not require specialized equipment to deliver great sound.

Designed Better

Built for Pure Listening

All Monitor XT models are made for the enjoyment of pure sound: Their nickel-plated binding posts guarantee a direct, lossless connection; low-resonance, critically braced, MDF cabinets isolate the sound of the woofer and tweeter without adding unwanted resonances; and their removable, precision-fit grilles minimize sonic interference.

Questions

Would you be able to stand these bad boys on the side & make some killer left & right channel bookshelf speakers out of them?

Asked by: AudioFan47
Hello, while these speakers are best suited as center channels, you can certainly use them as Left and Right speakers and place them in that configuration.

I purchased the XT30 center speaker. The woofer on the left has the dust cap inverted. In this by design?

Asked by: StanB
Hello Stan, That is not by design, both dust caps should be outwards. Please contact our customer care team for further assistance. https://www.polkaudio.com/en-us/contact-us.html 800-377-7655 (Product Support)

I just purchased the XT30 center channel speaker. Is this a 4 or 8-OHM speaker?

Asked by: MelM
The Polk Audio XT30 center speaker will work well with either 4 or 8-ohm amplifiers. It is rated as a 4-ohm speaker as all speakers fluctuate during playback, and the XT30 occasionally drops down to 4 ohms.

What Subwoofer will best complement this XT30?

Asked by: Brink
The Polk Audio XT10 or the XT12 subwoofers will complement the XT30 center speaker very well. Choosing between the XT10 and the XT12 will depend on your room size.
