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.

Over 40 years of tweeter innovation, design and prototyping has led to the development of the new 1" high definition Pinnacle Ring Radiator tweeter. Developed by Polk Audio, this Hi-Res Audio certified tweeter delivers ultraclear, crisp highs without unwanted coloration or distortions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Turbine Cone Woofer

Polk's pioneering turbine 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, movies & TV shows.

Polk developed the Turbine Cone woofer specifically for their flagship products to ensure the natural reproduction of the mid-range, to which human ears are particularly sensitive. The Turbine Cone combines Polk's proprietary foam core and moulded Turbine geometry which dramatically increases stiffness and damping, without adding mass.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi-Res Audio Certified

Your sound is only as good as your source. With Hi-Res Audio certification, the Polk Reserve R400 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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.
