About the Polk Audio MagniFi Mini

Steve Kindig

Big sound for smaller spaces

There's one TV in my house that I almost never watch. The picture looks fine, but the sound from its tiny built-in speakers is just pathetic. I've been looking to upgrade with a compact sound bar system, and Polk Audio's MagniFi Mini is a strong contender.

Big sound for smaller spaces

Polk Audio MagniFi Mini system in a bedroom

The compact MagniFi Mini system brings spacious sound and clear dialogue to smaller rooms, like a bedroom.

There's one TV in my house that I almost never watch. The picture looks fine, but the sound from its tiny built-in speakers is just pathetic. I've been looking to upgrade with a compact sound bar system, and Polk Audio's MagniFi Mini is a strong contender.

When Polk stopped by recently they demoed their new Signature series speakers and the MagniFi Mini system. They played the 5.1 speaker setup first, and I think we were all expecting a big letdown when they switched to the MagniFi sound bar and sub, but that didn't happen. The MagniFi duo sounded ridiculously big and full for a system of this size and price.

The biggest problem with most TV speakers is distorted, hard-to-hear dialogue. The MagniFi Mini sound bar tackles this issue with Polk's patent-pending VoiceAdjust™ technology. VoiceAdjust lifts the sound of speech so that it's easy to make out, regardless of what you're watching — or how loud. Even soft-spoken dialogue comes through crystal-clear whether you're sitting directly in front of the TV or off to the side. There's even a separate volume control just for voice.

Simple to hook up and use

Hooking up the MagniFi Mini is quick and easy. It connects to your TV with just a single audio cable. Using the included HDMI or optical digital cables lets you take advantage of the bar's built-in Dolby® Digital decoding. You can also choose between three listening modes — Movies, Music, and Sports — to help tailor the sound to what you're watching.

Speaking of connections, the MagniFi Mini also has built-in Bluetooth® and Google Cast (now called Chromecast built-in). You can wirelessly play tunes from your smartphone or tablet through the sound bar's powerful drivers.

A compact, convenient wireless subwoofer

Polk included a sub with a 6-1/2" woofer to deliver satisfying bass for high-energy action scenes and music. It connects to the sound bar wirelessly, which makes it super easy to place in your room — you just need to plug it into a wall outlet for power.

Roon-compatible for serious music lovers

The MagniFi Mini is also compatible with Roon, a subscription digital music player you download to your smartphone, tablet, or computer. It gives you multi-room audio playback for all your Chromecast-compatible devices and more. Roon accesses your digital music collection from your iTunes library or NAS drive. It also works with your TIDAL subscription. Roon lets you do deep dives into your music, showing artist bios, photos, reviews, and lyrics. Roon can also suggest other artists and songs based on your selections, making it easy to discover new music you'll enjoy.

Features

Ultra-Compact Soundbar: The Polk MagniFi Mini's soundbar features an ultra-compact design that fits tight spaces and still delivers big, room-filling sound. The soundbar speaker is equipped with a six speaker array which consists of two 0.5" tweeters and four 2.25" midrange drivers, all powered by a built-in amplifier.

Wireless Powered Sub: The included wireless powered subwoofer reproduces deep bass impact that you can feel from your movie and music soundtracks. It houses a down-firing 6.5" woofer, down-firing bass port, and a built-in amplifier. You can independently adjust the wireless powered sub's bass level from the rest of the system's overall volume level.

Proprietary Polk Technologies: Featuring Polk's patented SDA surround sound and Voice Adjust technologies, the MagniFi Mini soundbar speaker system produces an immersive listening experience.

  • SDA (Stereo Dimensional Array): Polk's patented Stereo Dimensional Array (SDA) surround technology is based on fundamental research into the way our ears process sound and perceive the direction of sounds. It uses a patented combination of signal processing and acoustical geometry that complements the spacing between our ears to produce a wide sound stage without the need for rear mounted speakers. Thanks to SDA surround technology, the Polk MagniFi Mini requires no special room characteristics and can deliver a room-filling surround experience in nearly any location in almost any type of room.
  • Voice Adjust: Voice Adjust technology dramatically increases vocal clarity and volume level for crystal clear dialog no matter what you're watching. You can customize the voice levels in the soundbar however you prefer to reproduce clear, crisp dialog and never miss a single word of your favorite movie, TV show, or sporting event.

Dolby Digital: The Polk MagniFi Mini soundbar and sub system will decode Dolby Digital 5.1ch audio through its HDMI and Optical digital. 2ch PCM audio is also supported through HDMI, Optical, and stereo minijack.

Optimized EQ Presets: One button preset EQ settings for Movies, Music, Sports, and Night optimize the soundbar and subwoofer to ensure you get the clearest dialog, big surround sound and deep bass for the best audio and home theater experience regardless of what you are watching or if you are watching late at night.

  • Movie: Enhances audio reproduction in TV and movies.
  • Music: Enhances audio whenever you're listening to music, watching music videos, or enjoying a concert on TV.
  • Sports: Enhances audio whenever you are watching sporting events, news, and talk shows.
  • Night: Reduces bass and volume dynamic while improving voice intelligibility for low-volume listening.

HDMI ARC Out: The Polk MagniFi Mini is equipped with one HDMI ARC output to connect the soundbar to your TV's HDMI ARC input. The HDMI ARC output allows audio from your TV to be sent through the soundbar system. The HDMI ARC output supports Dolby Digital 5.1ch & 2ch PCM.

Note: Many televisions will only pass 2ch PCM through the ARC-enabled HDMI input from devices connected to the TV via HDMI or analog.

Digital & Analog Audio Inputs: In addition to HDMI connectivity, the Polk Audio MagniFi Mini soundbar system provides a digital (optical) input and analog minijack (3.5mm) input for connectivity to your TV our other source components. You should make sure to turn your TV speakers off or set to "0".

  • Optical Digital Input: The soundbar features a single optical (toslink) digital input to connect your flat-panel TV. The optical input can decode and reproduce Dolby Digital 5.1 program material. The soundbar's digital input also supports 2-channel PCM.
  • Stereo Minijack Input: The soundbar is equipped with an analog stereo minijack (3.5mm) input to connect your television (which may lack an optical digital output). If your TV is equipped with stereo RCA outputs, you will need a stereo minijack-to-RCA adapter cable (sold separately).
Note: The digital optical output terminals of many newer flat-panel TVs only send an audio signal in 5.1ch when receiving Dolby Digital/DTS surround sound from the TV's built-in tuner, network connection, or connected USB device; and will output only 2ch stereo from sources connected to the TV via HDMI, or RCA (like your Blu-ray/DVD player or satellite/cable box).

Bluetooth Audio Streaming: The Polk Audio MagniFi Mini soundbar system supports Bluetooth A2DP which allows you to wirelessly stream audio from your Bluetooth-enabled Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, Windows Phone/PC, Mac laptop/computer and more. You'll be able to stream stored music or music apps from your Bluetooth-enabled device to the soundbar speaker system. You will continue to use your Bluetooth-enable mobile device for music navigation and to view song/artist information.

Note: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the Polk Audio MagniFi Mini soundbar speaker system.

Network Connection: The Polk Audio MagniFi Mini offers built-in WiFi (802.11 b/g/n; 2.4GHz) and features a rear-panel Ethernet (RJ-45) jack for a wireless or wired connection to your home's network router. By connecting to your home's network, the MagniFi Mini will support Google Cast Audio, so you can wirelessly stream many of your favorite music apps from your Android smartphone/tablet, Apple iOS device, Mac computer, or Windows PC to the soundbar speaker system.

Chromecast Built-In: Chromecast built-in lets you cast many of your favorite music apps from your from your Android (OS 4.0+) or Apple iOS (8.0+) device, Mac computer, Windows PC, or Chromebook to the MagniFi Mini soundbar speaker system. Chromecast built-in certified apps include Tidal, Spotify, Pandora, TuneIn, YouTube Music, & iHeart Radio (click here for a complete list of compatible apps - subscription fees may apply). Chromecast built-in streams your music directly from the cloud instead of from your smartphone or tablet, so you don't lose any sound quality. Additional Chromecast built-in features include -

  • Simple-to-Use: Chromecast built-in allows you to search, browse, play, skip, and turn up the volume directly from the music apps you know and love on your compatible phone, tablet or laptop. While you cast your music, you can still use your smartphone to answer a phone call, play a game, send a text, and even leave the room, all without interrupting what's playing on the receiver's speaker system or draining your battery. Friends and family can even use their own Chromecast Built-in compatible phone or tablet to cast music to your system by connecting to your home's WiFi network.
  • Google Home: Multiple Chromecast built-in speakers can be added to the same WiFi network to form a multiroom audio system using the Google Home app. Using the Google Home app (for Apple iOS 9.1+ and Android OS 4.0.3+), you can sync multiple speakers with Chromecast built-in in multiple rooms of your home to play the same song throughout your house at the same time. Only Chromecast built-in compatible music apps are supported.
  • Voice Control (Optional): Purchase the Google Home Wireless Speaker (sold separately) or other Google Home Assistant compatible speaker (see Accessories tab) and gain voice control of compatible Chromecast built-in music apps. You'll be able to access a specific music app and then select a specific station or song using only your voice. You'll also have voice control over Play, Pause, Skip, & Volume. The MagniFi Mini & the Google Home Assistant device must be connected to the same wireless (WiFi) network.

Remote Control: The included IR remote control provides wireless operation of the system. You can also program the MagniFi Mini soundbar speaker system to respond to your TV's IR remote (basic functions only - Power/Input/Volume/Mute). In addition, there are controls on the top-panel of the soundbar speaker.

Note: Many newer TVs are coming with RF remotes and don't offer IR functionality. In this case, you would not be able to program the soundbar and TV remote to work together.

Mounting Options: The soundbar speaker should be centered under or above your flat-panel TV screen. The lightweight easy-to-mount single speaker can simply be placed on a tabletop, stand, or shelf. It can sit on a flat surface because of its integrated rubber feet that enable it to rest securely. The powered subwoofer receives its signal from the soundbar wirelessly, so it can be placed virtually anywhere in the room (up to 30' from soundbar). It only requires plugging into an AC outlet.

Note: The soundbar speaker is not wall-mountable.

Power Requirements: Both the soundbar speaker and wireless powered sub will require an AC power outlet.

Q
Can you connect a Bluetooth turntable?
brian  Mar 16, 2023
1 answer
A
I do not see why not, Brian. The Polk Audio MagniFi Mini does have onboard Bluetooth to connect to a wide variety of source devices. Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the Polk Audio MagniFi Mini soundbar speaker system, just something to keep in mind. Most Bluetooth devices connect easily, and the Polk would be a great way to get great sound wirelessly from your turntable deck!

How do you connect with a FIOS box? Seems like the HDMI ARC is specifically for the speaker.
john  Jan 16, 2022

A
Use the HDMI arc connection from TV to the Polk. Fios box connects from TV to any other HDMI connection to TV. Then make sure your TV settings are set to HDMI ARC for sound out.

Q
Every time I turn the TV on, or change the channel, the dialog is out of sync. I've adjusted the audio delay on the TV and I've toggled the source button on the speaker bar and the dialog will sync up. It only lasts until the TV is turned off or the channel changed. I get my TV signal through a Contour II cable box and the sound bar is connected to the TV via HDMI. Any ideas?
jack  Oct 20, 2021

As I continued to search through the settings menu, I set the audio signal to PCM. This solved the problem.
jack  Nov 12, 2021

Unfortunately, l don't have a solution to the problem, just wanted to say I have had no issues and I am streaming and have a Roku Ultra. I think possibly you should focus on the cable box.

I'm not sure that it will control this device, but it does have Bluetooth and pairs easily. It is a great small system with great clarity. I bought one for my son at college. He loves it. It's not exactly room filling, but I would definitely purchase again.

yes,but no tone controls only power and volume.

Can this subwoofer be placed on side need it for a Motorcoach and space is limited. It would be on carpet?
dawn  Aug 02, 2021
3 answers
A
Back side of sub needs ventilation so I imagine you could but not sure what that would do to your sound. If I had to lay it on its side I would keep it elevated with rubber mounts on all four corners or a means to keep a space between the floor and the speaker
troy a  Aug 11, 2021
A
I'm not sure it would work properly on its side. It's very sensitive to begin with. I had to move it a few times to get the best sound and I still get feedback sometimes.
susan  Aug 05, 2021
A
Yes, by all means it can, but i would make sure that you place it so that the subwoofer fires in to an open area-remember the subwoofer fires into the floor with and 2 inch space from woofer to floor, firing into an open area will give you the lo sounds. Good luck

It would not be my first choice.
patrick c.  Jun 06, 2020
A
I don't see why not. As long as your computer has an hdmi output or optical audio output you could plug in. Or simply link using blue tooth. I only use a laptop and it would not have the proper outputs. I would definitely call a Crutchfield tech advisor and give them your computer setup info to be sure. By the way, It sounds great in my home gym! I have it hooked to my tv via hdmi and also use my phone to link it via Bluetooth to play Pandora and Apple Music.

I assume you are using this with a tv. I'm no expert, but I don't see how. Look to whether your television will allow more than one audio-out hookup. Maybe look at whether your receiver or your cable box or other audio output device will allow more than one hookup.
janice  Jan 05, 2020
A
I've owned this systems for a year and I don't believe that adding speakers outside of the MagniFi surround products is possible. And to be clear, this is really not a full-range systems as-is. Limited bass extension. Works okay for a 2nd system or bedroom but def not a "main" system unless you are okay with basics. Personally, i find the vocals often very tinny on TV but streaming Bluetooth music sounds quite good so I'm assuming it's the TV's audio signal and not the product. Hope this helps...
patrick  Jan 05, 2020
A
Hello Mick, unfortunately you can not. If you are thinking about multiple speakers, maybe you should consider a receiver with sub woofer, center channel and surround speakers. If you are new to home audio try starting small (affordable) with a 5.1 surround. Crutchfield advisers are the best...I'm certain they will point you in the right direction.
toby d  Jan 03, 2020

I don't run any extra speakers on my set up. It sounds great with the multi speaker sound bar and subwoofer. I don't believe the unit is set up for extra speakers wireless.

Nope, it has it's own power and doesn't need the TV to play music
justin  Mar 14, 2018
A
Of course not, it can connect by bluetooth. I have connected my phone to the soundbar and it will play music. There was a slight issue in that sometimes the music would drop for a second. But i cannot figure or remember what i did to correct it. But I think it was with my phone and not being right. If you get this problem I will say return it right away. IN any event I basically use it for my TV . LET me tell you the more you turn up the volume the better it sounds. IT does take a few days or hours to break in the speakers. It is a good value for the money. Since price has come down at other vendors. Would I buy again maybe. Only saying since there seems to be different options out there now! The sub woofer is not the loudest my only disappoint. But since I live in a apt. I have to keep the volume low. AGAIN it is a very nice system. Its up to the customer to keep or not. I do like it.
francis  Mar 14, 2018
A
Hi Josh. The TV would have to be "on" for the Polk system to work if you are streaming with the TV. It would probably go into sleep mode, but it would still be on. I normaly stream music via Bluetooth using my desktop computer or cell phone.
efrain  Mar 14, 2018
A
No, unless you're streaming from an app on the TV.
justin  Mar 13, 2018

No. Music can be streamed directly to the sound bar from a mobile phone, tablet, or computer.

I love mine I would like to answer your question but I don't know if your tv will have the port for the wiring my tv is a new Sony
larry  Jun 20, 2017
A
It should. It has an hdmi input, optical input, or aux input. Pros, sounds fantastics. Negatives: Always freaking on when the tv is on. Turn it off, it turns back on in 10 secs. I don't always need it on, so I unplug it. The remote sucks past 5ft and the minimal design on the display is hard to tell what is what. If you need it on all the time then great. Otherwise I would not buy this. (I wished I had returned it to be honest.)
justin  Jun 20, 2017

Does this TV have an optical digital audio port? If so, Yes, this sound bar will work with this TV. I currently have this hooked up using an optical digital audio cable that was included with the package.

It's a down firing sub. It can be laid down, but not sure what that would do to the frequency response.
samuel  Apr 03, 2017
A
Yes it can be and does not cause a problem. At least my did not. I know this product gets high praise. It takes awhile for the sound or speaker to get broken in mine did this. I had slight problem at first with blue tooth seems to go away. IF you are looking for deeper sub or base sound. I say pick a different unit. Like theJBL 450 for around $350 to $500. I still LIKE mine for cost, sizing, sound. It works. Hope this is helpful.
francis  Apr 02, 2017
A
No - the sides are curved and the subwoofer would not lay flat on either side.
craig  Apr 02, 2017

We checked in with Polk on this one - and the remote pictured on the website is the correct remote, and the only remote that has come with the MagniFi Mini. If you received a different remote with your unit, then I would recommend reaching out to Polk about getting the correct one.

Mario. I'm not aware of any hardware changes to this product since launch. It's possible our pictures are from a pre-production model. I'm checking with our web team now.

Bluetooth and ARC are 2 totally different functions. I have my TV connected to the ARC port of the Polk and it works very good! BUT it depends on your TV.

I do not have a 4k TV. But I believe it will work with a 4K TV. Since on the back it does have hdmi connection and it does say ARC. So it should work. You should know which is better that this unit is not big on Bass sounding. The subwoofer is lofi. Meaning its working but not loud. If you need a louder sub woofer than find different unit. It does make TV sound better. I have it hooked up to optical cable. OOO ya I went out an bought a after market optical cable that was thicker. My issue was I could have returned it, since when first using it. I found out that cable that came with it was loose. Thus went out and got after market thicker cable and it worked! It did not I would have returned it. Other people complain about different systems. But it works for me. If I read about something better. Then I will sell this on craigs list LOL. But believe the more you read about any system. People find fault with all of them. It's just the way it is. Once I get a 4k TV then maybe a different system. Your other option get a amp, recver, and speakers that will work with bluetooth and 4k. ALSO blue tooth works fine. Hope this helps. I know I went off subject. But! LOL

If you want to use HDMI, you only need to make sure that your TV's HDMI ports support ARC (Audio Return Channel). My TV is 2014 and one of the ports is explicitly labeled "HDMI ARC", but I don't know if all TV's make explicit labeling. Read the specs of your TV. If it doesn't have HDMI ARC, then you can still use other cables (example. the optical cable). With this system, using Optical or HDMI is the same in terms of sound quality. In any case, you can always return the system if you buy it with Crutchfield.
