MAKE YOUR ENTIRE HOME THEATER THE SWEET SPOT
You’ll experience a seamless, lifelike soundstage no matter where you’re seated thanks to Signature Elite ES55’s Dynamic Balance mica-fortified, polypropylene woofers and 2.5-way cascaded crossover array.
EFFORTLESS BASS
Power Port is a Polk-patented design that smoothly transitions the airflow from the speaker’s port into the listening area to eliminate turbulence and distortion for louder, deeper, more musical bass and a more open and transparent midrange. When paired with the ES55’s dual 6.5” woofers, that means effortless bass you can feel.
FROM VINTAGE HI-FI TO DOLBY ATMOS & DTS:X
ES55 Towers deliver spacious, clear, enveloping and realistic sound reproduction from nearly any amplifier or receiver—whether 4 or 8-ohm, vintage audiophile or the latest Dolby Atmos or DTS:X surround sound AVRs.
BUILT FOR PURE SOUND
ES55 is designed for you to hear pure sound the way the director, producer or artist intended.
QUIET CABINET
A strong, rigid and acoustically inert enclosure built with critically damped Medite MDF and laser optimized bracing reduces internal standing waves and resonances for less coloration and distortion of your sound.
LOW-INTERFERENCE GRILLE
The ES55’s anti-diffraction, magnetic grille minimizes sonic interference and can be easily removed to provide a striking look.
DIRECT CONNECTION
Dual gold-plated five-way binding posts ensure the most direct, efficient, and lossless connection possible.
