Specifications
Amplifier Power Requirements
Your speakers will work well with a variety of electronic components. As little as 20 watts
(RMS) per channel will deliver adequate listening levels in most cars. If you have a noisy
car or intend to play your system at loud listening levels, more power is necessary to achieve
the best performance. Consult your Polk Audio dealer for specific recommendations.
Safe Limits Of Operation
Your Polk loudspeakers are made with the highest quality materials for years of trouble-free
performance. However, damage to loudspeakers can occur when an amplifier, regardless of
its wattage, is made to play at higher listening levels than its power can cleanly produce
(usually beyond the “2 to 3 o’clock” position on the volume control).
This results in very high levels of audible distortion, originating in the amplifier, which
adds a harsh, gritty sound to the music. Contrary to popular belief, a speaker is more likely
to be damaged by trying to get too much volume from a low-powered amp or receiver than
from a high-powered one.
Technical Assistance Or Service
If, after following the hook-up directions, you experience difficulty, please double check
all wire connections. Make sure that your electronic equipment is operating correctly by
hooking up another speaker to the speaker output. For example, if you are not getting
sound from the left channel speaker, connect the right channel speaker to the left output.
If you still get no sound from that side, the problem is in your amp or source electronics.
Should you isolate the problem to the speaker, contact the authorized Polk Audio dealer
where you made your purchase. Authorized Polk Audio dealers are the best source for
advice and assistance.
Call Polk Audio’s Customer Service Department at 1-800-377-7655 from 9am to 6pm,
Eastern Time, Monday through Friday. Please do not hesitate to call us if you have
questions about your speaker system.
