THE ART OF MAKING SUPERIOR SOUND ACCESSIBLE
We’ve leveraged our proprietary development processes and advanced technologies to bring the premium
sound you deserve to a price you can afford.
BI-LAMINATED COMPOSITE WOOFER
Monitor XT features bi-laminated composite driver cones, precisely
tuned using Polk’s Dynamic Balance process to produce smooth, natural
sound. On floor-standing models, woofers work in combination with
passive radiators to produce the clean, open midrange and deep,
punchy, responsive bass that Polk is famous for.
ACOUSTICALLY OPTIMIZED CABINET
Monitor XT’s rigid, critically braced cabinet isolates the sound of the
woofer and tweeter, reducing unwanted resonances. You’ll never
inhearin the enclosure—just the pure, impactful sound of the music
and movies you love.
ELEVATE SURROUND SOUND WITH HEIGHT MODULES
Experience truly multidimensional Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Auro 3D
sound with MXT90, which bring a dramatic vertical dimension to the
soundstage when playing immersive movies, music, and games. Height
modules fit perfectly atop select speakers and can be wall-mounted for
maximum versatility.

MORE
THAN YOU
BARGAINED
FOR
When the original Polk Monitor Series debuted in the 1970s, it set
a new standard for loudspeaker performance and value—with clear,
accurate response, powerful bass, and lifelike imaging at a price
that made great sound available to everyone.
Monitor XT Series continues this tradition, leveraging Polk’s 50 years
of acoustic innovation. Refined transducers work with precisely
tuned crossovers to reproduce your audio in exquisite detail. And
they’re housed in rigid, strategically braced cabinets
for purer, more authentic reproduction.
When you experience Monitor XT’s power, warmth, and clarity, you’ll
get lost in the action of your favorite movies and games, and you’ll
fall in love with your favorite music all over again, whether you’re
spinning vinyl or streaming playlists. Hi-Res Audio and Dolby Atmos
certified, accessibly priced, and built to last, the Monitor XT Series
truly fulfills the Polk promise of Great Sound for All.
