Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Packaged singly to give listeners more flexibility when configuring a 6.1 or 7.1 surround sound speaker system, the RM30 satellite speaker looks and sounds great when paired with a plasma or flat screen TV. Mounting options are plentiful: listeners can use the swivel wall-mounting bracket (which includes a hidden wire channel) to install the speaker flat against the wall--a perfect compliment to a wall-mounted flat-panel monitor. They can also place the speaker on a bookshelf or desk using the custom-designed shelf stand (included), or use the threaded insert to mount the speaker on a fully articulating bracket (sold separately). All the options deliver the same results--rich, full-bodied sound that disperses broadly throughout the room regardless of where guests are sitting.

The RM30 comes in a stylishly sculpted anodized-aluminum enclosure with a curved silhouette. The unique shape breaks up internal standing wave resonance, helping create a pure, more lifelike sound, while the PowerPort venting extends and strengthens the lower midrange performance to ensure a seamless blend with the subwoofer output. The resulting midrange minimizes the "hole" between the satellite and sub frequencies, helping male vocals sound rich and full rather than thin and weak (as with most other sub/sat systems).

The RM30 is equipped with dual 4.5-inch polymer composite midrange drivers for clear, distortion-free midrange and a high-performance 1-inch silk/polymer composite dome tweeter for sweet, crisp highs. The drivers combine to produce a frequency response of 65 Hz to 26 kHz, and work with amps rated from 20 to 175 watts per channel. Additional features include magnetic shielding, which lets you locate the speakers near a state-of-the-art TV or video monitor without distorting the picture, and five-way binding post connections for the purest possible sound. The speaker measures 5.81 by 24 by 6.62 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a five-year warranty on parts and labor.

This review is from: Polk Audio RM30 Satellite Speaker with Stand (Single, Pewter) (Electronics)

Purchased as an upgrade to our current center channel the RM6900. This speaker is outstanding, the sound is deep and clear. It is a bit deep though, so check the measurements to make sure it doesn't look weird in your home.
