Polk Audio

Why choose bookshelf speakers?

Bookshelf speakers may be small in size, but they can deliver surprisingly big sound. Some ultra-compact models even fit on a desktop. Most are right at home in tight spaces like shelves, so they're usually good choices for your home theater's rear channels. For the best performance, try placing bookshelf speakers on solid speaker stands to help the sound really "open up." If you want full bass impact, add a powered subwoofer and enjoy punchy sound that's as deeply satisfying as that of floor-standing speakers.

      Driver Technology

      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.

      Drivers: The drivers used in the RM7 speaker are as follows:

      Midrange: The satellite speaker features one 2-1/2" dynamic balance composite cone driver, which is lightweight and efficient, resulting in clear, distortion-free midrange.
      Tweeter:
      The RM7 has a high-performance 1/2" dynamic balance composite semi-dome tweeter for sweet highs and more lifelike imaging.

      Enclosure Design

      Enclosure: The RM7 features an acoustic suspension, non-resonant composite enclosure with a high-gloss finish (white or black) for great looks and natural sound. The three-sided cabinet design minimizes the visual impact on walls and shelves while the integrated baffle and anti-diffraction grille design allows maximum sound dispersion with minimum diffraction for superior imaging and room-filling sound.

      Connections

      Speaker Terminals: The spring clip terminals located on the rear of the speaker will accept pin connectors and bare wire.

      Mounting Options

      Video Shielded: The RM7 is magnetically (or video) shielded for safe placement near your TV or computer monitor without causing picture interference.

      Mounting Options: The RM7 can be placed on a shelf or table top without a stand due to its flat base. The satellite speaker can also be wall mounted using the supplied wall mount bracket which allows the speaker to swivel horizontally. In addition, the RM7 is compatible with Polk's SA-3 floor stands.

      Back Surround Sound Speakers

      Written By Ben, Poquoson, VA on Sunday, September 19, 2010
      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      I really, really like these speakers - once I got them tuned with the receiver, the front speakers and the room the sound they produce is great. I have four of them across the back wall of my study that I use for back surround sound speakers. They are the perfect size for my study - a small room. Another benefit is these speakers come with wall mounts - nothing to write home about but they do the job just fine..

      I have 6 of these, 4 as my rear surrounds, 2 as my fronts w/RM7C center speaker. They rock. Sound is incredibley clear, master HD tracks rock, you hear everything as it was meant to be heard. For their size they are amazing.

      Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
       
      I own Polk car tweeters which provide excellent sound. The highs are ridiculously clear and accurate. This is my first experience with Polk home speakers and I am thoroughly impressed. I purchased these speakers to replace surround (rear) speakers for a 5.1 Dolby Surround System that still sounds phenominal. I was using a pair of Mini Advents that I had for about 15 years. The Mini Advents did sound good, but they were a little bulky for the surround sound speaker stands that I had, and they provided more power than what I was using them for. I decided to try the Polk RM7 and I am not at all disappointed. Great sound for a small speaker. Very clear and accurate. I highly recommend these for a surround sound set up.

      I buy two of this small but very powerfull speakers to complete a 7.1 home theater system with the RM 75 Polk Audio System. Very well matched with the other five beacause they are identic. Heartly recommended. Thanks to my Crutchfield by phone advisor. They are installed with the Sony Receiver STR-DG920 and the 32" Bravia TV. My friend, what a experience in High Defiition TV Sports!. This is another world!!! For me, no more standard TV.
