Iconic Design

Designed to Impress

Designed from the ground up to be the best sounding compact bookshelf loudspeaker Polk has ever created, the Legend L100, with its small size but pinnacle performance, lives up to our mission to deliver deliver great sound without compromise.

Flagship sonic performance

5.25" Turbine Cone

Polk developed the Turbine cone specifically for the Legend series to ensure the natural reproduction of the mid-range, the frequencies our ears are so sensitive to. The Turbine cone combines Polk’s proprietary foam core and the molded Turbine geometry which dramatically increases stiffness and damping, without adding mass, resulting in a smooth, detailed mid-range and effortless bass – hear every detail.

Better Bass by Design

For Legend Series we enhanced our patented Power Port® technology by fine-tuning the geometry of the port flare to smoothly transition air flow from the speaker into your listening area. The result? Louder, cleaner bass and more defined midrange by minimizing the turbulence, distortion, and port noise typically found in traditional ported speaker designs. Hear the difference in the Legend L100.

Pinnacle Ring Radiator Tweeter

40 plus years of tweeter innovation, design and prototyping has led to the development of the new 1” high definition Pinnacle ring radiator tweeter. Developed for the Legend Series, it delivers ultra-clear, crisp highs without unwanted coloration or distortions.

Crisp and Clear

Hi-Res Audio-Certified Performance

Your sound is only as good as your source. With High-Resolution certification, the Polk Legend L100 delivers clear and detailed high-end response. Female vocals are smooth and detailed without coloration. Plus, a minimum support of 40kHz perfectly reproduces the latest high resolution audio files with improved audio extension.

Legend L100

Every Detail

Legend L100

Every Detail

Comes with a grille to cover the front baffle and a second grille for the top to cover the optional height module when installed. Computer modeled for a precision fit and to minimize sonic interference. The acoustically inert magnetic grilles offer a clean aesthetic without sacrificing sound.

Polk believes cabinets should be beautiful but add nothing to the playback. Polk Legend cabinets, braces, and internal enclosures are carefully engineered to minimize unwanted internal standing waves and eliminate unwanted resonances. The result is a cabinet that rigidly holds the transducers while faithfully reproducing recordings.

Perfect for easy setup, they ensure the most direct, efficient, and loss-less connection possible. Dual binding posts support both bi-wire and bi-amping.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best speakers I've had in 55 years I got a super deal on a used pair and after some break in time these little puppies recreate music and soundstage like no other speakers I've owned. I've owned a lot - Magnepan x4 models, Thiel, Spica, KEF, Acoustat, and these are the best - bar none. I can't believe the bass/mid bass; for most of my listening I keep the sub off. I'm driving them with a Topping LA90 (excellent in its own right). I've placed them on spikes on spiked Target, sand filled, stands the weigh about 45lbs each. Bottom line it these suckers get my toes taping.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Polk Speaker series ever made! The smallest of the legend series is able to easily sound as good as any of its legend siblings. Highly resolving with a wide soundstage. These are forward sounding which makes them sound great with lively recordings. They are revealing so any bad recordings or mediocre equipment will sound as such. They will reward you handsomely with good recordings and decent power. I have a tube integrated amplifier (Rouge Audio Cronus Magnum 3) servicing them with excellent results.

Questions

Hi, What AV receiver do you recommend for this set-up: Fronts legend L100, center R350 and sub HTS 12? 

Asked by: Dan007
Hello, We typically find ourselves pairing these speakers with Denon or Marantz receivers. The majority of their selection will power these speakers well and you can focus on the features you want in the receiver knowing that it will mesh great in your system.

Can these speaker be ceiling mounted?

Asked by: Sascha
Due to their weight, mounting the L900 speakers to the ceiling is not recommended. Please consider one of our In-Ceiling speaker options. - https://www.polkaudio.com/en-us/category/built-in-speakers/in-ceiling/

What speaker stands are featured on the L100 webpage?

Asked by: Rickca
Hello Rickca, I am not 100% sure which stands are marketing team used, but they do look similar to the Monolith by Monoprice 28" speaker stands. Hope this helps. Happy listening.

Can you just hook up a turntable with a LP disc and listen to the music or you need a receiver?

Would the Cambridge AXR85 Receiver have enough power for the L100 speakers? Do you think these speakers are big enough for a room 20' x 30' or would you recommend towers instead?

Asked by: Dave222
For a room that large I recommend the L600 with a larger amplifier.
Answered by: ESavinon

Could I pair these and have enough power with the Sony STR DH590?
