Technology
Dynamic Balance® Woofer Design Polk perfected the method of
analyzing a speaker's microscopic behavior with laser
Interferometry. With that information in hand, Polk engineers
select the ideal combination of materials, geometry and
construction techniques to literally “tune out” unwanted
resonance. The result is a subwoofer that delivers pure,
distortion free deep bass.
Klippel Optimized Long Throw Woofer Using a state-of-the-art
Klippel Distortion Analyzer, Polk engineers optimized the
woofer's motor structure, voice coil alignment and suspension for
longer excursion and greater linearity bringing you the best
possible performance even at the most extreme listening levels.
Slot Load Venting improves bass response. The wide, long slotted
vent dramatically lessens turbulence, noise and distortion,
pouring out a tidal wave of precise, thunderous bass!
Rock-solid MDF construction (including a 1 inch thick front
baffle) suppresses enclosure panel resonance for distortion-free,
accurate response. Polk subs sound better because they're built
better.

you're not sure a dealer is "authorized," call Polk Audio at
