SAFE
LIMITS
OF
OPERATION
Polk
Audio
specifies
the
recommended
amplification
range
for
each
of
its passive
(non-amplified)
loudspeakers.
Typically
that
specification
will
be
expressed
as
a
range
of
power
such
as
20-200
Watts
(per
channel).
It
is
important
to
understand
what
those
numbers
mean
when
choosing
a
receiver
or
amplifier
for
your
Polk
Audio
loudspeakers.
The
lower
number
indicates
the
lowest
continuous
rated
power
that
will
yield
acceptable
performance
in a
typical
listening
environment.
The
higher
number
indicates
the
highest
per
channel
power
that
should
be
used
with
your
Polk
Audio
speakers.
That
number
should
not
be
confused
with
a
"Power
Handling"
specification
and
it
does
not
imply
that
the
speaker
will
safely
handle
that
full
amount
of
power
on
a
long-term
basis.
We
specify
a
wide
range
of
power
ratings
because
not
all
electronics
manufacturers
use
the
same
method
for
rating
power. In
fact,
high
quality
lower-rated
amplifiers
sound
better
and
play
louder
than
low
quality
units
with
higher
power
rating.
Automobile
horsepower
is
a
good
analogy.
Your
car
probably
has
far
more
horsepower
than
it
needs
for
your
daily
commute
and
is
likely
capable
of
going
well
over
120mph
(190km/hr).
Having
that
extra
power
is
good
for
on-ramp
acceleration
and
danger
avoidance
(like
getting
away
from
brain-
eating
zombies)
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
it
is
advisable
to
operate
your
car
on
North
American
highways
at
full
power
and
maximum
speed
for
an
extended
period
of
time.
Just
ask
your
local
state
trooper
if
you
are in
doubt.
Similarly,
we
recommend
using
amplifiers
and
receivers
with
rated
power
above
the
power
handling
limits
of
our
speakers
because
having
extra
power
available
for
short
term
peaks
is
conducive
to
better
sound
quality,
maximum
dynamic
range
and
effortless
high
volume
output.
But
we
strongly
urge
you
not
to
use
the
full
power
of
your
amplifier
or
receiver
for
daily
listening.
Loudspeakers
can
be
damaged
when
an
amplifier,
regardless
of
its
wattage,
is
made
to
play
at
higher
listening
levels
than
its
power
can
clearly
produce.
Operation
at
this
level
can
result
in
very
high
levels
of
audible
distortion
originating
in
the
amplifier,
which
can
add
a harsh,
gritty
sound
to
your
listening
material.
If
you
hear
distortion
-
turn
the
volume
down
or
risk
damaging
your
speakers. You
can
damage
just
about
any
speaker,
regardless
of
power
rating,
if
you
drive
an
amplifier
to
or
beyond
the
point
of
distortion.

GARDEN
PLACEMENT
You
may
locate
your
Atrium
SUBl00
anywhere
you
can
run
speaker
wire.
If
you
place
your

in a
garden
bed,
upon
soft
ground
or
mulch,
we
recommend
you
place
it
on
a
paver
or
other
hard
surface.
This
will
prevent
mulch
or
dirt
from
building
up
underneath
the
subwoofer,
which
must
remain
clear
for
optimum
performance
and
to
prevent
damage
to
driver.
The
included
grille
can
be
attached
to
prevent
wildlife
from
taking
residence
under
your
subwoofer
(Part#

should
be
made
with
the
provided
wire
nuts.
We
recommend
filling
each

nut
with
a
little
silicone
sealant
to
ensure a
weatherproof
connection.
Any
number
of
SAT300
loudspeakers
can
be
used in an
installation.
For
applications
requiring
more
than
two
SAT300
loudspeakers, use a
separate
amplifier
channel
for
each
additional
pair
of
SAT300
loudspeakers.
Do
not
use
the
A
and
B
channels
on
your
receiver
to
hook
up
two
pairs
of
SAT300
loudspeakers, as
this
may
overload
and
damage
your
receiver/

circuitry.
If
you
