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. Would love to watch the avengers with this sound system. Would be a major upgrade from the stock tv speakers I’m using now!

  2. The Stanley Cup Playoffs would sound even better with the MagniFi MAX surround sound experience. It would add more excitement to the games

  3. Better audio to go with my projector. I setup a projector with a 100in screen about 5 years ago and don’t use it much because the audio setup is less than stellar.

  5. My husband is obsessed with sound quality, meaning our movie nights begin with ensuring the sound is pristine prior to pressing play. I must be a pretty awesome wife to 1) accept his investment (obsession) with sound quality, and 2) to tolerate being able to hear bass from three floors up while trying to sleep.

    Winning this would allow me to further secure my epic wife status.

  6. Without a doubt, live WWE events and live concerts would and could benefit from this amazing piece of home theatre technology!

  7. Better dialog quality would be a massive win for my wife and I. We’re constantly turning to each other and asking, “what did they say?”

  11. I just bought the 55″ Sony X900F last month. The TV is amazing, even the speakers aren’t too bad. But I do need a sound system to get the most out of my games. I own several hundred PlayStation 4 games. Currently playing Kingdom Hearts 3.

    If I win, I’ll redo a whole playthrough of the entire saga, all on proud difficulty, and enjoy the games unlike ever before.

  12. Watching the Daytona 500 with a quality home theater system would be amazing.Tv speakers just can’t capture the audio experience ,you need to pair a great tv with a great sound system.

  13. Polk sound good already setup for main home movie but another set in basement need a good sound too, for kids and friends.

  19. I can’t wait to watch Game of Thrones with the MagniFi MAX surround sound experience…just think how realistic those dragons & white walkers will become!

  20. We have just moved across the country and donated a lot of our previous belongings.

    As we establish ourselves in our new home it would be great to have a set like this Polk one to enjoy Family Movie Night with my 5 and 2 year old. They love Pixar and Dreamworks movies and I would love for them to be able to feel like they were at the theatre watching it with me.

    Thanks for the chance!

  22. For me, my “Audio Mission” is such that I want to provide a family fun area where we can watch movies, play video games, and enjoy music, and that area doesn’t need to be an actual home theater or sound room. Being able to simply listen to a sound bar of this nature would allow us to do such a thing in our open area family room, while still being able to enjoy the fact we aren’t in a closed room ideal for a home theater setup with so many speakers.

  23. This would be great for watching movies such as Blade Runner 2049, were the audio is just as important in creating the atmosphere as the visual is. More so in some cases.

  29. I would be able to play Little Big Planet on PS3 and it would sound amazing!!! Our TV doesn’t have very good speaker in it 🙁

  31. Hey Kevin,
    Great Article. MagniFi MAX would totally take The Resident to a new level. The pulse-pounding benefits of surround sound would make it feel like we are right there in the operating room with our favourite characters like the Raptor!
    Voice Adjust technology would also be great to ensure we can hear what the surgeons are saying with all the equipment going off in the background!
    Hope I can make this great audio system a part of my TV Time!

  32. Super Smash bros on the Switch with the kiddo in glorious full audio!
    Super Spouse acceptance factor with this swetup..so few wires, less dust collecting gear piled up

  38. I recently built a family/TV room in our basement. The Polk Audio MagniFi MAX SR Sound Bar System would certainly help complete what I am trying to achieve with a limited budget. I would dust off my copy of Once upon a Time in the West and watch it when no one is home. I can’t convince my family that it’s a great movie.

    • Any of the Star Wars movies would be awesome with a sound system like this. Anything with John Williams would be tremendous.

  40. It would be incredible to watch the Grammy Awards with the MagniFi MAX surround sound experience. So much great music would be even greater.

  41. I would love to watch A Star is Born with the MagniFi MAX surround sound experience. It would make the musical experience out of this world

  44. My audio missing is to create the “Wall of Sound” for my rec room! I am working a nice set up that will give us the best sound quality

  49. I would love to have this system in order to enhance my gaming sessions with my family! My 4 year old would love to have the odd dance party too! LOL
