Product Description

The TL1 satellite speaker pair brings digital surround sound excitement to home entertainment in an ultra-compact design. The silk dome tweeter and mid-range driver coupled with Time Lens technology deliver smooth highs, superior audio detail and pinpoint imaging. Polk's proprietary, patented Dynamic Balance technology tunes out distortion-causing driver and system resonances. It also features an "aperiodic-tuned rear port" that is designed for better bass extension and a pleasing mid-bass boost, with the ability to deliver great sound even in the open or against a wall. The unit’s hi-Gloss "Blackstone" finish matches today's most stylish flat-panel TVs and furniture. Built-in keyhole slots and threaded inserts makes for easy mounting of the speaker.

• Features a 2.5-inch driver and a 0.5-inch silk dome tweeter for more realistic audio detailing and a sound comparable to any large surround sound system • The aperiodic-tuned rear port delivers bass extension and boosts the audio on a shelf or against the wall • Designed to align the acoustic centers of the tweeter and mid-bass in the same plane, making it feel like you are in the movie instead of just watching it • Create an immersive surround sound system by installing four to eight of these TL1 satellite speakers, a TL1 center channel, and any subwoofer of your choice • No matter how you choose to set it up, front speakers, left-right surrounds, or rear surrounds for heightened effect, the speaker easily connects to a receiver

    Compact Audio Surprise! I purchased two Polk Audio TL 1 speakers in an attempt to add true 5.1 Surround Sound for a Yamaha YHT-S401 sound bar. While I was pretty happy with the YHT-S401's "virtual" 7.1 capabilities, adding the TL 1's as satellite surround sound left/right speakers for true 5.1 sound to this sound bar system really created a superior sound stage experience. Good to know: -Excellent value -.5" Silk dome tweeter , 2.5" midrange driver and injection-molded diaphragm results in surprising well blended sound -Very good high frequency capabilities; less capable with low frequencies but was designed to be pared with a separate subwoofer -High quality, solid construction made of molded high-density resin -Beautiful piano-black resin = lots of fingerprints -Best for small to mid-sized rooms -I carefully compared the TL1s to the more expensive (larger speaker, tweeter & driver ) Polk Satellite TL2's in the same series and while the TL 2's sounded great too, I didn't hear any improvements in my setup and room size over the less expensive ( smaller speaker, tweeter, driver) TL1s. -For the best 5.1 surround sound experience try placing these or any other satellite ( surround Left/Right) speakers at ear level and to the left and right of where you normally sit--not behind you. Note for Yamaha YHT-S401 owners, when I first connected these speakers to the YHT-S401's receiver ( SR/SL) the volume from these speakers was very low. However, once I adjusted the Left/Center/Right speakers on the sound bar to -1 for Left/Right sound bar speakers and 0 for the center sound bar speaker the TL 1 performed as expected even loud ( I have the TL 1 set to +3/+4 ). Also don't forget to change the sound bar from 3Ch to 5 Ch when using the TL 1 satellite speakers.

    My other speakers are all BOSE and very nice quality and I have an Onkyo THX reciever. This speaker provides rich depth that is needed to balance out with the other speakers.
