Product Description:
The SurroundBar 50 is 51" wide to offer an enveloping surround sound experience to anyone who wants better sound from their TV but does not want to install rear-mounted speakers. The Polk Audio SurroundBar delivers surround sound from a single, multi-driver loudspeaker located under or over the TV screen using SDA Surround technology. SDA Surround technology uses a patented combination of signal processing and acoustical geometry that complements the spacing between your ears to produce surround sound without the need for rear mounted speakers. It can deliver a room-filling surround experience in nearly any location in almost any type of room with no special room characteristics required. The SurroundBar 50 is sized to match the width of 50" Plasma and LCD TVs. In addition to using SDA Surround technology on the surround channels, the SurroundBar 50 adds SDA Surround image enhancing technology on the front Left & Right channels to further enhance the surround experience as well as produce a huge stereo sound field from a two-channel source. New drivers and crossover design along with a larger enclosure produce far better bass performance than the original SurroundBar. Aluminum enclosure housing nine mid/bass drivers with Neodymium magnets, three dome tweeters and a four-PC board crossover with over 60 components.

- Attractive, well priced, and a little more enveloping than regular speakers
I've got this SurroundBar 50 hooked up to a Sony mid-range receiver, a Polk PSW111 sub, and a Sharp 52" LCD in a cathedral ceiling, trapezoidal room. Basically this was the only thing that would work. The overall effect is very good and I'm happy with the piece. It's not insignificant to me that this is a very attractive piece of A/V equipment, with easy hookup and three mounting options out of the box. I've got it on very small feet and it looks great.

- Little or no surround sound
The Surround 50 bar by Polk provides little or no surround sound.I installed it with my Pioneer Elite Receiver and a Polk sub-woofer.All sound seemed to come from the sound bar.I then played the same movie with individual Polk surround speakers.They provided true 5.1 sound.I am returning the bar to Electronic Expo as a result.
Rating: - Best single speaker surround option I've heard for under a grand.
Never thought I would like a single speaker surround solution.Unfortunately the wife's opinions on interior design made finding one a necessity.Not surprising, Polk Audio delivers once again.What a great speaker company!
Rating: - Polk Surroundbar 50
Easy installation.Nice sound. I haven't tried it on many DVD's yet but so far I am satisfied with the quality of the sound.It is not true surround but probably as good as you can get without rear speakers.
Rating: - Great solution for people that don't have room for a full 5.1 setup
I got this for a killer price compared to the rest of the internet. Even though it is silver, it still blends in pretty well with my black TV. The wires that come with this speaker are extremely thin and I had problems with them cutting out on my receiver until I installed banana plugs. The sound is pretty good as well. Not quite as good as a full 5.1 system, but a lot better than I expected one speaker to be.
