Polk Audio TL250 Black 5-Channel Home Theater System

Polk Audio TL250 Black 5-Channel Home Theater System

Add a compact speaker system to your TV room, den, bedroom or dorm room, and transform your listening space instantly into a true cinema experience. The TL250 is a 5-piece surround-sound system. Add a Polk Subwoofer (or use your existing subwoofer) and experience the TL250's superior speaker-subwoofer blending ability. We recommend the Polk PSW111 or PSWi225 to complete your TL250 System. Build a professional quality extended multi-channel sound system by adding additional, timbre-matched TL2 Speakers (go from 5.1 to 6.1, 7.1 and beyond!).

• Aerated Polypropylene Cone Material
• Ring Radiator Tweeter
• Extended Linear Motion Motor Structure

Description

Time Lens Technology
Time Lens technology aligns the acoustic centers of the tweeter and mid-bass driver on the same spatial plane for superior imaging, while an acoustic lens incorporated in the grille smoothes the tweeter`s frequency response. This alignment and grille lens technology creates imaging realism and frequency balance unheard of in small, high performance satellite speakers.

Curved Enclosure Design
Employs non-parallel surfaces that not only lead to a stronger, more rigid and acoustically inert enclosure, but they also result in less audible coloration from internal surface resonances. We`ve literally designed-out the usual limitations of small-enclosures. It`s a new category of compact loudspeaker: the kind that sounds amazing. (And looks great doing it.)

Dynamic Balance® Driver Technology
If you could tune out the bad sounds before they even happen, you`d do it, wouldn`t you? Polk Audio`s patented Dynamic Balance process allows us to design our drivers specifically for flatter frequency response, revealing the sharpest details and a more lifelike transparency, with absolutely no strain even at high volume. It`s a bold, rich, warm and lifelike sound.

Hi-Gloss "Blackstone" Finish
A durable, deep automotive-strength finish that matches today`s most stylish flat-panel TVs and the decor they live in: yours.

Multiple Mounting Options
Compact means go-anywhere for Blackstone TL: on shelves, on the wall, on stands. Built-in Keyhole Slots and threaded inserts (that fit virtually any brackets) give you multiple mounting options.

PowerPort®
Polk Audio`s patented bass venting technology, added to a compact loudspeaker, is like bringing the big bass drum to the party. PowerPort decreases port turbulence and virtually eliminates "port noise," for a massive 3dB boost in bass response. With wider dynamic range, Blackstone TL3 blends naturally with your Subwoofer, for more realistic bass impact in your theater.

Aerated Polypropylene Cone Material
Developed using our patented Dynamic Balance process and specially designed for a compact speaker, the Blackstone TL3 APP Cone is based on the innovative cone technology used in our flagship speakers. It`s lightweight, but stiffer and stronger, with longer linear excursion capabilities in a limited compact enclosure space, so it plays louder with less distortion. Its increased efficiency is the key to big speaker sound!

Extended Linear Motion Motor Structure
The goal of Extended Linear Motion Voice Coils (EXL) is to make BL (the motor force applied to the cone) consistentin both directions of travel to reduce distortion. EXL achievesthis by modifying gap geometry to use a short coil but still have a large range in which BL is consistent. EXL uses a tall gap and places a cut half-way between, which splits the gap effectively into two gaps. The short coil sits vertically at the center of this cut, and the ends of the coil are in the middle of the two gaps.

Ring Radiator Tweeter
The Ring Radiator Tweeter has never been used in a compact loudspeaker before! You will hear the kind of incredible accuracy and detail (beyond even 30kHz!) you expect from a full-sized loudspeaker. The Ring Radiator Tweeter is found only in the world`s highest of high-end loudspeakers, including our own award-winning flagship LSi and LCi Series speakers.
