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.

  2. It would turn movie night into something really special. Besides movies shows like the Vikings would rock on this system.

  3. This would be absolutely fantastic for all movies but especially the Star Wars and Star Trek movies. It would make it a true movie theatre quality experience right in my living room.

  6. This would be so great as we have zero in the way of sound equipment – just what came with the television and little computer speakers.

  7. I would love to have this polka soundbar. The size, the sound and the easy setup are all positives for me. Crossing my fingers!!!

  8. With Season 4 of The Expanse due this year, this would be perfect for hearing the sounds of space battle like I’m actually there.

  11. My mission is to get blown away by a movie like Fury Road with a compact audio system that fits nicely in our tiny home.

  13. I purchased a 4K RCA tv this summer and the volume doesn’t go loud enough. I have been looking for a quality sound bar with good base. Looking forward to seeing Bohemian Rhapsody and a Star is Born

  14. Polk Audio MagniFi MAX SR Sound Bar System would certainly be a huge asset for sound for great movies and shows such as Blacklist that has great music!. thanks for the chance

  15. I’m getting older and have a reverse hearing issue. High pitched sounds are amplified and I just LOVE base and have trouble hearing it. Would LOVE to win. Everything I watch would sound so good!!

  17. I like watching musicals, and they would all sound better with a nice sound bar! A favourite is “Singin’ in the Rain.”

  18. We’re movie addicts, when our daughter is watching Paw Patrol that is! Right now we’re using a small Sony soundbar from 6 years ago. It’s just not cutting it.

    Everyone focuses on picture but I truly believe sound is just as important – it immerses you in the movie experience. It adds depth, it builds suspense, it adds power that just “picture” alone cannot do.

    I’m looking for the brand and the system that can provide this kind of deep experience.

  22. This would be perfect to watch sports games, especially the Raptors. And of course, all the action movies.

  23. The sound on my TV has just gone, and I won’t be able to afford a new TV anytime soon but, with a new Polk Surround Sound System, ANY show, movie, concert, or sports event I choose to watch will benefit from awesome sound quality! (Likely far better than the sound my TV offered in the first place!)
    Thanks for such a perfectly-timed and awesome opportunity!

  24. Super Bowl Sunday! I can only imagine how great it would be to hear all that is going on, on and off the field!

  28. Super gift to win. It gets more and more difficult to hear the tv, especially since the speakers are located on the back. This sound system would make watching tv much more pleasant.

  29. Better sound for our at home yoga classes and work outs with family and friends in living room.

  30. I would be able to have my friends over and watch a movie as if we were in our own theater if I won the Polk MagniFi MAX SR true 5.1 home theatre sound bar system from Best Buy.

  31. My father recently passed away. He left me a collection of LP’s that I can remember listening to when I was a young girl – I am now almost 60 years old. I would love to have a Polk Sound Surround system to enhance the sound quality on these LP’s.

  32. Our granddaughter loves Shawn Mendez and it would be great to stream a live concert for her to watch and most importantly listen to with the Polk Surround sound System.

  33. I love watching music movies, I will bet that A Star is Born, and Bohemian Rhapsody would sound awesome through this system.

  34. I would like to have a better sound system to enhance our movie watching experience. Movies like Pirates of the Caribbean would sound much better on a good sound system.

  36. Our current set up does not have a sound bar or external speakers. Programs are difficult to listen to as the volume controls on the TV are not sufficient enough to produce decent sound. A MagniFi MAX surround sound bar and wireless speakers would certainly add to a better listening experience while watching the TV.

  37. I currently don’t have a system. It would be perfect for entertaining or doing at home cardio workouts. Some heavy metal, or some classical music are my fav’s. I like to play it loud without any distortion. My action movies would be even more realistic so I’d feel like I was in the middle of it all. I detest wires as it makes any set up look messy and less attractive.

  40. I’d be curious to see how these actually perform. I’ve tried speaker bars before and although they may sound sweet in-store, in-home performance is often disappointing.

  45. I’ve got two sets of speakers in my living room; one for the TV and one for the wireless stereo with the Polk MagniFI Max. I can minimize my collection and upgrade my music and video game sessions.

  46. My husband’s favourite sport is cycling. Being able to experience the sound from a Polk MagniFi MAX home theatre sound bar system while watching Tour De France would be amazing! I enjoy watching Netflix and the sound experience would make the movies even more enjoyable! Thanks for the opportunity!

  49. I think all movies and sport events would benefit from this system because 5.1 surround sound makes everything sound better

  50. Any of the Star Wars, Star Trek or Lord of the Rings movies would sound fantastic with the battle scenes through the Polk Magnavox sound system
