RM8 WIDE-DISPERSION ARRAY

SATELLITE LOUDSPEAKER

The RM8 Wide-Dispersion Array Satellite Loudspeaker ensures more dispersion pattern options for the utmost inplacement flexibility. The satellite is offered with a center channel in 5-Pack Speaker Systems (subwoofer sold sepa-rately). (See chart on page 7.) RM8 Satellites can also be purchased individually (in black or white) to integrate with any RM700 Series configuration, so you can tailor the kind of surround sound you prefer.

WIDE-DISPERSION ARRAY

The RM8 front channel satellites feature two 2 1/2" midrange drivers, with one midrange driver and a 3/4" dome tweeter on one baffle and a single midrange on the adjacent baffle. This Wide-Dispersion Array design creates a more enveloping, less localizable soundfield for listeners throughout the room. Even off axis listeners hear perfectly balanced and articulate sound. The Wide-Dispersion Array affords more dispersion pattern options for the utmost in placement flexibility.

RM8 WIDE-DISPERSION ARRAY

DYNAMIC BALANCE®

Advanced laser imaging technology allowed Polk Audio engineers to see the entire vibrating surface of a driverand tweeter; they could actually see the resonance develop on the speaker cones—resonance that is the rootcause of loudspeaker distortion (A). Being able to see the resonance develop, they determined the “DynamicBalance” of high-tech materials, geometry and construction that effectively tune out the offending resonance (B).Exclusive Dynamic Balance Composite Material Technology delivers sound |that’s effortlessly clean and clear,even at lifelike volume.
