Polk Audio F/X Wireless Surround Speaker - SURROUNDFX

Polk Audio F/X Wireless Surround Speaker, Model SURROUNDFX

Eliminate the need for multiple rear speakers with the world’s first and only single surround speaker and it's wireless.
The incredible, category-defining F/X® Wireless Surround Speaker has arrived. Now one compact loudspeaker placed unobtrusively behind your seating creates a completely enveloping, realistic surround-sound performance. Gone are the traditional Surround speakers, the wire and the installation hassles. It’s engineered with patented “smart” technology to work perfectly in any size room, and to fit unobtrusively into your décor on the floor or on or under a sofa-back table or bench. The F/X Wireless Surround Speaker gives you the power to achieve astonishingly lifelike and dynamic surround-sound effects from one compact, wireless loudspeaker!

Familiar concept, unexpected location
You’re familiar with new single-speaker surround-sound systems, like the Polk Audio SurroundBar®. F/X Wireless Surround grew from the same concept, but behind you this time: a wireless single-speaker rear surround speaker. The F/X Wireless Surround Speaker incorporates exclusive new technologies, like Controlled Dispersion Array technology (to accurately simulate multiple channels from one source) and Polk Digital Logic® (to automatically optimize the sound design for your room setup), with the classic warmth and realism of the Polk Audio sound

Boost the surround-effect of your single-speaker surroundsound system, or just lose the clutter and installation hassle of two or more rear surround speakers attached to your walls, with their wires trailing across your floors. And you’ll never miss the exciting performance of real surround-sound.

Arthur C. Clarke said, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” We can’t think of a better proof of this axiom than the new F/X Wireless Surround Speaker.

Features:

• The innovative F/X Wireless Surround is yet another ingenious single-speaker solution from Polk Audio.
• A completely self-contained surround-channel sound system featuring four 2.5” full-range drivers & a 5.25” woofer, powered by a compact 120 Watt multichannel DSP amplifier.
• Easy connections: Just connect the compact transmitter to the rear-channel outputs of your processor. (High performance RCA connectors and speaker wire sets are included for your choice of easy transmitter-to-receiver connections.) This state-of-the-art 2.4GHz transmitter talks to the speaker’s onboard receiver, for instant, lossless signal response. No room-spanning wires!
• Convincingly discrete rear-channel response thanks to Polk’s patented Controlled Dispersion Array (CDA)technology. CDA Technology delivers realistic left, right, rear and surround staging for 5.1 (and beyond) systems, in any room environment and with virtually any placement.
• Ported, for unexpectedly big couch-rocking bass response.
• Customizable settings for easy optimization, with a 3-position DSP Controller. Set it for your placement needs (floor, sofaback table or shelf mounts) and it automatically delivers perfect imaging and sound.
