Polk Audio CS1 Monitor Series Center Channel Speaker
(Black)
The name "Monitor" is special to Polk Audio. The original
Polk Audio Monitor Series, produced in the mid-1970s, ushered in the modern
loudspeaker era by setting the standard for performance and value. The original
Monitor Series is the line that made Polk Audio famous with its simple, sturdy
construction, clear, accurate sound, powerful bass and superior imaging all at a
price that made great sound available to everyone.
The newly reborn Monitor Series is classic Polk: a quality-built, affordable
line of high performance loudspeakers for music and home theater. They are
highly efficient, so they can be driven easily by unpretentious receivers, and
they are voice matched for lifelike surround sound environments. The Monitor
Series boasts a stylish contemporary look, modern Titanium faces, and bold
stabilizer feet on the tower models. Built for speed, sound quality and value,
the Monitor Series is a great introduction to high performance sound.
The CS1 center speaker has been designed to be the perfect match for Monitor
Series speakers in multi-channel systems.
The CS1 features:
-High efficiency design allows the CS1 to reveal the classic Polk Audio sound
(open, spacious and clear) even when driven by modestly-powered amplifiers and
receivers.
-1" (25mm) Fabric/Polymer Composite Dynamic Balance Dome Tweeter
with powerful Neodymium magnet structure delivers clear and detailed high
frequency response for realistic reproduction of vocals and instruments.
-Bi-Laminate Composite Dynamic Balance Drivers are lightweight and stiff with
good damping for high efficiency, excellent bass and lower distortion.
-Non-resonant all-MDF enclosure construction with ¾"-thick baffles
ensures cleaner, clearer, more lifelike sound quality.
-Reversible-design cabinets can be turned upside down to aim "up" when
placed under a video monitor.
-Five-Way Binding Post Connectors for more secure hook-up options.
-Magnetic shieldeding for safe placement near TVs with no risk of video
distortion.
-Critically Tuned Flared Port minimizes port noise ("chuffing") for good
low frequency extension with low port noise, resulting in natural, full-bodied
sound with rich bass.
