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’m a bit hard of hearing and have my tv on high volume but it had static and sounds muffled. I like horror movies and clear sound just makes them all the more intriguing. We also have a large family and like to watch movies together and a great sound system is something we could really use if someone decides to talk during the movie maybe it won’t distract everyone else. Also having less wire is not only going to prevent trip hazards but is also aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

  2. Not only is the Game of Thrones Season finale happening but the Captain Marvel moving is being released soon and I would LOVE to surprise my husband with the best sound possible to watch these with!

  3. Game of Thrones grand finale is coming up and the sound would be amazing through this amazing Polk sound system!!

  4. We often have my mother-in-law over for the weekend and as she is a bit hard of hearing we have the television up quite loud. It would be so very nice to have really good quality sound up loud so we all could enjoy the tv again!

  5. I think this would be great for TV shows like Game of Thrones. With an audio system like this, watching these amazing TV shows would be so much more immersive!

  6. I am a sound freak. Love playing music all day in my house. From what I read about this system, I am eager to give a try.

  7. I love watching movies at home and this system would bring the theatre experience to my living room.

  8. This wireless sound system would be heaven to own. I’m tired of all those wires everywhere interfering with my room layout. Besides that, enjoying the Fast and Furious 7 with all its driving scenes would be awesome to listen to on this sound system.

  9. Last year, I invested in a great TV from BestBuy and I’m very happy with the picture quality. However, when I’m watching blockbusters or other exciting home video entertainment, I want to have sound quality that matches the visuals. So, I think it would be great to make the leap to the Polk Audio MagniFi MAX SR Sound Bar System!

  10. I want better sound so I can hear all the details and nuances found in movie soundtracks. Sound is often times more important for creating that immersive experience for films like Star Wars

  11. As of this moment, I have a gorgeous Samsung Series 7 in my living room. The picture is beautiful. I love me TV! What I don’t love, is the audio output. The thinner TVs get, the lower quality the sound is.

    My wife and I are movie buffs and we always have a movie night on Saturdays. First, a great family movie with the kids and after they are in bed, the grown up movies come on.

    Our movie nights would greatly benefit from a quality product like the Polk MagniFi MAX! That is my mission, if you, Best Buy, choose to accept it!

  12. If I win this, I could watch movies and videos in my master bedroom with complete surround sound wireless so no wires. Please be me.

  13. It would be so much better to get a sound system like this for our living room to watch movies with and videos! Would love to win this Polk audio system.

  14. Just bought a 65″ Samsung NU8000 and Leafs games look amazing on it, I’d just love to have the sound too!

  15. Moved into a new house with a rec room setup thats totally different than our old one. The wireless capability opens up the options for speaker placement

  16. My gaming experience would benefit from the MagniFi MAX surround sound experience, because my current system is dated and isn’t as good.

  17. We are now over 70. We are challenged to enjoy almost every aspect of TV. We experience not only problems with dialogue but all audio, including sports, music and movies. Wow, would this Polk Audio MagniFi MAX SR add to our quality of life.

  18. Game of Thrones because my husband loves the show and he appreciates the best sound quality to maximize satisfaction in watching the show.

  19. I’d love to experience Seattle Seahawks games with MagniFi MAX surround sound, for a more immersive viewing experience.

  20. My audio mission would be able to hear the shows I am watching clearly and this sound bar package would do nicely!

  21. My tv speakers are very lacking in sound so I would love this. I would love to have the enhanced sound experience.

  22. I would use Polk Audio MagniFi MAX SR 400-Watt Sound Bar System with Wireless Subwoofer
    for watching movies.Because 8″ ported wireless subwoofer delivers heart-pounding bass to take movies to another level of realism
