Polk Audio Monitor 5 loudspeakers

Monitor Series Loudspeakers

The Polk Audio Monitors are sophisticated reference-quality loudspeaker systems. They were developed to meet design criteria calling for efficient, high-definition reproducers which would accurately recreate the sound field of the original performance.

An Integrated Design Concept

The exceptional performance which characterizes the Monitor Series loudspeakers is not the result of any single feature or facet of their design. Concepts such as our unique Fluid-Coupled Low Frequency System, as well as low-distortion components such as out soft-dome high-frequency unit, isophase crossover network, and high-definition plasticized bass-midrange drivers are all important. It iss, however, the elegant integration of concepts and components which results in the superior performance which sets the Monitor Series apart.
