You’ll see that sound is their single focus. And they know what people want in their speaker systems: Simple setup, sleek looks, and, above all, rich and immersive sound quality. Read on to learn more about how the Polk MagniFi MAX SR true 5.1 home theatre sound bar system makes the perfect companion for your home theatre, and then enter this contest for a chance of winning one of your very own.

Polk make it look easy

If you’ve been avoiding installing a surround sound system because you don’t want to deal with the tedious installation, or you just don’t see the benefit of adding more speakers to your current TV setup, Polk have just the system to change your mind.

Installing a surround sound system in your living room used to be such a pain. You needed to be handy with a hammer and few other tools to tackle the job. You see, speaker wires for rear surround speakers (the speakers you place to the left and right of your listening position on the sofa or armchair) would usually run across an open floor space and present a tripping hazard, not to mention how they would diminish the carefully planned aesthetic of the room. And concealing speaker wire was no simple feat. It involved snaking cables through the walls, installing raceways, applying adhesive speaker wire, covering them up with rugs, tucking them between your carpet and baseboard, and even painting them. Now might be a good time to mention you’re allergic to DIY.

The sound bar boasts a unique mounting system to keep it level and centered under your TV

MagniFi MAX SR eliminates the need for all that backbreaking labour. This system includes a MAX sound bar that fits nicely under almost any TV, wireless subwoofer that can be placed almost anywhere in the room, and two SR1 wireless rear surround speakers. The operative word, “wireless”, could be the game changer some of you were waiting for. It renders speaker wire obsolete and instantly offers a cleaner look and less complicated setup.

Included HDMI and optical cables make installation quick and easy (no fumbling around with daunting receivers), while a clever mounting system makes it easy to attach your sound bar and rear speakers to the wall. The rear surround speakers can also be placed on two side tables on either end of your sofa. Plug the rear speakers and subwoofer in, and they’ll automatically sync with the sound bar. It’s that easy. Wi-Fi, Chromecast, and Bluetooth support make streaming music from your favorite apps a cinch too, and you can even connect your Google Home speaker, so you can control what you’re listening to with your voice.

Place your wireless rear speakers on side tables or mount them to the wall

Expect an amazing soundscape

Once set up, put MagniFi MAX SR to the test with something that really shows off its potential, like an opera, symphony orchestra, or live rock concert performance. The sound bar’s 7-driver array is complemented perfectly by the booming bass of the powerful 8” ported subwoofer, while two rear speakers help deliver a truly dynamic surround sound experience. Besides music, this advanced 400-watt, 5.1 channel system is optimized for movies, TV, and sports, and packs multiple technologies that work together to deliver sheer delight to your ears.

Patented SDA digital surround technology creates an expansive, multi-dimensional audio experience to place you and your family at the epicenter of whatever’s happening on-screen, whether you’re watching a blazing car chase in a modern-day crime caper, the latest Attenborough-narrated wildlife documentary, or dying minutes of Sunday night football.

Or, if you’re craving a courtroom drama or other dialogue-driven story, Voice Adjust technology lets you customize the voice levels so you can hear every word of what’s happening. No more double takes of scenes with conversations you didn’t catch the first time around or annoying your partner with questions like, “what did she just say?”.

In conclusion, the MagniFi MAX SR is a powerful surround sound system that’s a cinch to install while delivering mind-blowing sound for all kinds of entertainment. If, like Polk, you’re ready to make amazing sound your mission, the MagniFi MAX SR will make it a simple mission to accomplish.

  1. My husband loves to watch sports, especially hockey. He would absolutely love this to have a better viewing experience.

  2. The current speaker we have is just from the TV. It would be great to have a system like Polk MagniFi MAX SR true 5.1 home theatre sound bar system for thriller dramas on netflix and to listen to concerts!

  3. The Polk MagniFi MAX home theatre sound bar system would be great to listen to my Digital Stingray Music to bring all the depth of crisp highs with mid-range and lows to my ears day after day in my household!!!

  4. My home theater speaker setup is very old and my subwoofer frankly sucks. I would like to experience movies the way they were meant to be heard.

  5. I’ve always avoided surround sound because I wasn’t sure how to cope with cables across the floor and hanging speakers on the walls. This sounds amazing! My son is studying film production at college so this will make watching movies at our house a much better experience!

  6. the only speakers in my house are on the tv lol i would love to blast some tunes from it and these would help a lot!

  7. Polk makes great speakers, love that there are no wires. This system deserves a Load of the Rings marathon.

  8. Music sweet music…just all of it..just imagine, a concert in my livingroom….sweet..
    Time to say “so long” to that hard working but weak built in tv sound I would be so thrilled to stop saying “WHAT DID THEY SAY???” So yes please!!

  9. This system would enhance any TV but for me to hear even the whispers when I am watching a movie would be amazing. Good luck everyone

  10. I AM 71 AND WOULD LIKE TO ENHANCE THE SOUND QUALITY OD MOVIES WE RENT. I FIND THAT I MISS SOME OF THE BACKGROUND CONVERSATIONS.

  11. This would be so nice to have, to experience movies, and what ever else you like with a complete excellent audio sound.

  12. I like the idea that it is wireless & voice operated. I would set it up using my voice only, since my husband ALWAYS has control of the remote now I can have control of the volume. It’s a win, win situation.

  13. This audio system would make Game of Thrones upcoming final season phenomenal. Hearing the swoosh of the dragons wings, feeling the rumble of walls falling and white walkers marching would be awesome! For two years, I have been counting the days until the return of my favorite show and winning this system would give GOT the big screen feel it deserves.

  14. We have a cottage that we love to entertain from in the warm spring, summer, and fall times. I’d love to have this sound system to be able to provide great music, or great sound on those football games that everyone loves to watch

  15. I’m a Game of Thrones fanboy and think it would be amazing to watch the final season with this audio setup!

  16. As we age, now 64, sound becomes more difficult to hear. Movies with all the background sound are particularly hard to pick up voices clearly. A sound bar would help immensely in solving this problem. Thank you

  17. I would love to win this machine to play the Andre Bocelli Vivere CD.He has such a powerful voice with an amazing range.The other performer that affects me in this way is Celine Dion.They make the chills run up my spine!!There is one song on this album performed by both. It is called The prayer Duet. It has always been a dream of mine to be able to see each of these performers live .I think this machine would be the closest to this experience that I can imagine…The movie I would choose would be the time favored classic “Grease”. A friend of mine and I saw a live production of this in Brisbane Australia in 1992.We sang and danced in the aisles to most of the songs.I would think this machine could bring that experience back in a very real way! I would have a big party and invite people who loved the great music and amazing choreography of this time favored classic .It would be a very special event,even invite local TV and newspapers to come to see this unique celebration, sing and dance and enjoy this fun filled extravaganza of all the senses that I am sure this machine could create magnificently!!!It would be like the drive in theaters I use to go to as a teenager;maybe even arrange it so it could be set up under the stars on a warm summer evening. The possibilities are endless…
