Featured Tech

Polk’s audio technologies are engineered to deliver powerful, immersive sound with precision, clarity, and unmatched value.

TURBINE CONE WOOFER

Polk's Turbine Cone solves a classic design dilemma: how to make a driver cone that’s both rigid and moves air efficiently, for the most powerful, accurate sound. Innovative fin-like ridges make Turbine Cone extraordinarily light and stiff, achieving breathtaking midrange detail even at high volumes.


✔ Smooth, detailed midrange performance

✔ Deeper, more impactful bass

✔ Reduced distortion even at high volumes

PINNACLE RING TWEETER

Our Pinnacle Ring Radiator tweeter features a pointed waveguide that reproduces highs with pinpoint accuracy, while spreading sound evenly throughout the room for the same authentic sound in every seat.


✔ Minimizes unwanted resonances

✔ Delivers smooth high-frequency response

✔ Wider sound dispersion

POWER PORT

Polk’s patented Power Port technologies strategically guide air out of the speaker enclosure, reducing noise and distortion to deliver cleaner, more powerful bass and a more defined midrange.


✔ Minimizes turbulence and distortion

✔ More powerful low-end response

✔ Improved overall speaker efficiency

COLUMN RESONANCE CONTROL

At Polk, we take many steps to tame cabinet resonance, using low-resonance materials and angled bracing that breaks up sound paths. Our Column Resonance Control technology takes things even further, adding an absorber that neutralizes natural resonances in large cabinets. The result is more accurate sound with smoother, cleaner bass and midrange.


✔ Reduce unwanted vibrations and resonances

✔ Cleaner, more accurate sound

✔ Improved clarity and tighter bass

VOICEADJUST

Polk’s patented VoiceAdjust™ technology lets you customize voice levels to ensure clear, crisp dialogue no matter what you’re watching. It works by isolating and enhancing the vocal range, so you never miss a word, even during loud action scenes or quiet conversations.


✔ Enhanced vocal frequencies

✔ Customizable voice levels for fine-tuning

✔ More accessible for those with hearing difficulties

DOLBY ATMOS

Dolby Atmos puts you at the center of your entertainment, delivering 360-degree sound that is spacious, enveloping, and stunningly lifelike. We offer a range of Dolby Atmos-certified sound systems, from compact sound bars to full component systems.


✔ Allows sound to move above and around listener

✔ Enhances clarity, depth, and realism

✔ Gives the feel of being inside the action

STEREO DIMENSIONAL ARRAY (SDA)

When you listen to two speakers, sound from the left mixes with the sound from the right, making music seem less realistic. Polk’s patented SDA technology adds a second set of drivers that cancel out the “mixed” sound, leaving true stereo sound that comes to life with extraordinary depth and spaciousness.


✔ Wider, more immersive soundstage

✔ Eliminates common crosstalk distortion

✔ Greater depth and precise imaging

HI-RES AUDIO CERTIFIED

Hi-Res Audio certification verifies a speaker's ability to accurately reproduce high-resolution digital audio, which offers more detail and depth than standard digital audio. With Polk’s Hi-Res Audio certified speakers, you can be confident that music, movies, and games will sound as close as possible to their original sound.


✔ Higher sampling rates and bit depths

✔ Ensures greater audio detail and clarity

✔ Full depth and nuance of high-quality recordings
