Polk are on a mission to make amazing sound accessible to everyone. And after decades of innovative engineering and beautiful design, the home audio manufacturer has made great strides in reaching this goal. Take a look at their product offering on bestbuy.ca. 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. I am a huge Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons fan. They are my #1 feel-good musical group. Now with the addition of the Jersey Boys movie & broadway songs, I need the MagniFi MAX surround sound to experience both the classic & modern versions of my favorite tunes!

  2. My equipment is outdated and I would love to enjoy the Modern equipment to improve my listening, watching, etc..now that I have more time to do it!

  3. Watching Game of Thrones would be greatly improved with this system. It would also be good for listening to music using Chromecast.

  4. Currently working on putting a home theatre and playroom in our unfinished basement. We need the extra play space as we are expecting our third child in August. If I’m going to be hearing and watching Moana and Frozen on repeat for the next decade, be nice if was through a nice Polk sound system!

  5. I cannot wait to have my new system in place for the start of the F1 and Nascar seasons. The sound should be amazing! Thanks

  6. I want to have better audio than the built-in tv speakers for everything from movies to music. Thanks

  7. I would love to give this to my husband on our anniversary. He loves watching sports and I know he would appreciate better sound!

  8. As a scout scouter, I always like to organize and bring fun activities and enjoyment to my scout group at all times. Every year several campings will be organized and youths will enjoy indoor and outdoor activities without attaching to electronics devices. Showing movies is one of the activities that we usually organized. To boot the excitement of movie watching, a good sound system would be a important piece of device that comes to the play.

  9. My family and I love to watch scary movies so having a home theatre system would make them that much better!

  10. I have a really okd sound bar which I thought ok. I recently saved for a gaming headset and the sound on that compared to the sound bar makes it just seem so terrible. I’ve lost faith in sound bars after having a head set. I’d love to not have to use a head set to watch movies now. Given Polk audios amazing reputation for sound. I’d love to have a sound bar I’m proud to use.

  11. Just invested in a brand new shiny TV but I have discovered the sound is not what I thought it was going to be…it was quick pricey so I was surprised!…I think the addition of a Polk MagniFi MAX home theatre sound bar system would improve the sound when watching movies…my passion!

  12. Just purchased my first smart TV and subscribed to Netflix BUT I am still missing the movie theatre charged up sound effects that I was hoping for. Polk will make that happen!

  13. My mission is to listen to music clear and loud like I did before I got a wife and kids. Haha. My big stereo system is long gone. Now its just a small speaker bar…super lame.

  14. Avenger’s Infinity War would DEFINITELY benefit from the MagniFi MAX surround sound experience! It’s an actioned packed movie that would be that much more of an experience with the MagniFi MAX.

  15. My audio mission is to stop the kids from turning up the television volume over 40. I suspect the improved sound quality of the Polk Audio MagniFi MAX SR Sound Bar System would prevent them from maxing out the volume.

  16. We have an attached garage that has been finished with old barn board from a livestock corral we built in the 70’s and replaced with steel corrals in 2017. In this garage we have a motorized projection screen that comes down one wall and a projector mounted on the ceiling for movies. Monthly we house a group of kids from a bible college that come to our area to work with area youth while preparing for a summer camp that runs in July of every year. This setting would give these college kids, summer campers and other camp councilors a nice place to escape and enjoy music, movies and sports with beautiful Polk Audio wireless surround sound. Thank you Best Buy for providing this opportunity with this contest. Good Luck to all entrants.

  17. Movies and music would sound extra great with my own Polk MagniFi MAX home theatre sound bar system!. Quality sound effects when I watch movies and a fantastic sound to the music I play, which is every day! Thanks for this contest Best Buy!!

  18. My family’s audio mission is to have a sleek looking audio system, easy to install and great quality 🙂 We want better sound in our home to play music. I think that “Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse” would be an awesome movie to watch with family and the MagniFi surround sound system would add to the experience! I’d love to win this 🙂

  19. We love watching movies but our TV speakers are terrible. This sound bar would kick up the sound a notch!

  20. I’m all about minimalism. Whenever you can achieve a rich sound without unnecessary clutter, I’m all in. Just the other day I was watching Dream Theater’s cover concert of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon and thought, this would sound a whole lot better in surround. Bingo.
