Standout Sound from a Narrow, Elegant Cabinet
Offering a balance of size and power, the Polk Audio R500 loudspeaker is perfect for hi-fi listening in a stereo pair or as part of a multi-channel surround system. With its twin 5.25" Turbine Cone woofers and 1" Pinnacle Ring Radiator tweeter, it delivers standout sound from a narrow, elegant cabinet that seamlessly fits into any room.
With a slim and attractive design, the R500 has a minimal elegance that will fit into any décor. Inheriting Polk’s flagship transducer array, it produces exceptional sound that rivals competitor speakers that sell for twice the price. Hi-Res Audio certified, the Reserve R500 is ideal for today’s two-channel music listening as well as multi-channel 3D audio found in movies, sports, and video game soundtracks.
The R500 and other speakers in the Polk Reserve series reveals what "better" sounds like, delivering flagship music and movie sound. Even though it uses many of the same transducers and technologies as the Legend Series, Reserve won’t break the bank. It offers flagship Polk sound at an approachable price.
Hi-Res Audio and iMAX Certified
Your sound is only as good as your source. With Hi-Res Audio certification, the Polk Reserve R500 delivers clear and detailed high-frequency response. Female vocals are particularly smooth, with exceptional clarity and without coloration. Plus, a minimum support of 40kHz perfectly reproduces the latest Hi-Res Audio files with improved audio extension.
The iMAX Enhanced certification guarantees an unforgettably huge and dynamic home theater experience when enjoying IMAX Enhanced movies, television shows and music.
Pinnacle Ring Radiator Tweeter
The Pinnacle Ring Radiator Tweeter’s distinctive pointed shape guides the dispersion of high frequency sounds around a room. This innovation widens the sweet spot and allows you freedom to enjoy your music and movies wherever you choose to sit.
Turbine Cone Woofer
Polk Audio's pioneering turbine cone woofer design delivers a significant increase in cone rigidity without increasing mass. This innovation means the woofer can move with increased accuracy and speed to deliver enhanced sound resolution, enabling you to experience a breathtaking level of detail in your music and movies.
Patented X-Port
Polk's proprietary X-Port eliminates unwanted noise created as air moves in and out of the speaker cabinet port at high-speeds. This ensures a rich and detailed listening experience with tight distortion-free bass and a clean midrange.
The X-Port is a set of closed-pipe absorbers that are tuned to the internal frequency of the cabinet. This cancels out traditional resonances and distortions that you may get in the speaker's construction.
Exceptional Cabinetry
Reserve’s sleek cabinetry hides a world of audio innovation. Cabinets are carefully cross-braced to best eliminate unwanted interior resonances. Rounded exterior corners help disperse sound broadly around the room with minimal diffraction, creating an open sound stage.
The Reserve Series
Modern styling combined with Polk’s premium Pinnacle tweeter and Turbine mid-range driver deliver high-resolution detail and imaging. With Polk Audio's detailed, deep effortless bass, you will enjoy a whole new listening experience. Pure and minimalist, the Polk Reserve Series is engineered and designed with your entertainment in mind.
Mix and match Reserve speakers to fit most rooms and AV configurations. From compact centers that fit in AV cabinets to wall mountable Left/Center/Right and height modules, Reserve guarantees great sound no matter the configuration.
