| Without a proper centre channel, movie dialogue and special effects tend to sound flat. Polk's Blackstone TL1 centre channel speaker will "wow" your with it's dramatic, engaging movie theatre sound reproduction. It uses some pretty advanced driver technology, so you experience effortlessly clear dialogue and dynamic special effects from a speaker that takes up very little space. And if you've got a new flat-panel TV, this speaker's high-gloss finish will match it perfectly.
Advanced driver technology for astonishingly realistic sound
Polk's "Time Lens" technology aligns the drivers in such a way that all the sounds reach your ears at the same time. It improves the speaker's staging and imaging, so that you'll start to forget you're watching a movie and really feel like you're there. An "acoustic lens" in the speaker grille prevents unwanted diffraction, while simultaneously dispersing sound waves in a way that makes your movie and music soundtracks sound larger and more open. The "aperiodic-tuned rear port" controls air flow in and out of the enclosure, much like a breathable membrane. It gives the TL1C the acoustic benefits of both a sealed and a ported enclosure, including better bass extension and a mid-bass boost. It also means you can place this speaker on your TV cabinet or against the wall, and still expect great sound.
Easy speaker placement
The TL1 has keyhole slots in the back for easy mounting to your wall straight from the box. You can also use the discrete threaded inserts to fit it to an optional speaker bracket. Create your own home theatre system by adding anywhere from five to seven TL1 satellite speakers to this centre channel. |
