About the Polk Audio Monitor 50
Get big, room-filling sound at an affordable price! The high-performance Monitor 50s feature Polk's famous Dynamic Balance® drivers — a 1" dome tweeter and dual 5-1/4" woofers dish out rich, vibrant sound all across the audio spectrum. Enjoy pristine reproduction of stereo music, or make these impressive tower speakers an integral part of a voice-matched Monitor home theater setup, either as front or a surround speakers.
The Monitor 50s are constructed with non-resonant MDF, and include front-to-back and side-to-side internal bracings for cleaner, clearer, more lifelike sound. Bold, fat stabilizer feet keep these tall, slender tower speakers steady on carpet or hardwood floors. And dual 5-way binding posts allow for bi-wiring or bi-amping.

Product Research
Features
Dynamic Balance: Dynamic Balance is a proprietary Polk Audio technology using laser imaging to determine what combination of speaker materials create the least amount of resonance. Eliminating resonance in speakers results in a wide, smooth response and low distortion.
Polymer Composite Woofers: Each speaker features two lightweight, yet stiff Bi-Laminate composite woofers with good damping, giving you high efficiency, excellent bass, and low distortion. For high performance durability, each woofer uses a butyl rubber surround.
Silk/Polymer Tweeters: Each speaker has a 1" fabric/polymer dome tweeter that provides clear, detailed highs. Each tweeter uses a heat sink on the Neodymium magnet for superior heat dissipation, power handling and reliability.
Acoustically Inert Cabinets: The speaker cabinets feature all-MDF construction with internal bracings that virtually eliminate sound-muddying resonance.
Ports: There is a single critically-tuned port opening on the front of each speaker that has low port noise for increased and extended bass response.
Stabilizer Feet: The large stabilizer feet ensure stability on carpet and hard floors for precise bass response and superior imaging.
Dual 5-Way Binding Posts: Each speaker has two sets of gold-plated 5-way binding posts connected by gold-plated jumpers. Using the dual 5-way binding posts, you can bi-amp or bi-wire the speakers.
Magnetically Shielded: Each speaker is magnetically shielded, allowing you to place them near your television without distorting the picture.
Note
Frequency Response Note: The overall frequency response is 42 Hz-25 kHz and the -3 dB frequency response is 57 Hz-24 kHz.
