DYNAMIC BALANCE®

Advanced laser imaging technology allowed Polk Audio engineers to see the entire vibrating surface of a driver and tweeter; they could actually see the resonance develop on the speaker cones––resonance that is the root cause loudspeaker distortion (A). Being able to see the resonance develop, they determined the “Dynamic Balance” of high-tech materials, geometry and constrution that effectively tune out the offending resonance (B). Exclusive Dynamic Balance Composite Material Technology delivers sound that’s effortlessly clean and clear, even at lifelike volume.
