Literature

Sound so big, you’ll wonder ‘where is the rest of the speaker?’ There’s no going back to traditional bookshelf speakers after you hear the L100’s. These Polk Legend bookshelf speakers deliver deep effortless bass, amazingly smooth and detailed mid-range (the hallmark of the Legend Series) and ultra-clear and precise imaging.

Crisp and clear

Pinnacle ring radiator tweeter

40 plus years of tweeter innovation, design and prototyping has led to the development of the new 1” high definition Pinnacle ring radiator tweeter. Developed for the Legend Series, it delivers ultra-clear, crisp highs without unwanted coloration or distortions.

5.25" turbine cone

Polk developed the new Turbine cone specifically for the Legend series to ensure the natural reproduction of the mid-range, the frequencies our ears are so sensitive to. The Turbine cone combines Polk’s proprietary foam core and the molded Turbine geometry which dramatically increases stiffness and damping, without adding mass, resulting in a smooth, detailed mid-range and effortless bass – hear every detail.

Enhanced Powerport

BETTER BASS BY DESIGN

Traditional bass ports make noise (chuff) and mask the low frequency bass notes you want to hear. The new enhanced Power Port® design smoothly transitions air flow from the speaker into your listening area for louder, cleaner bass while minimizing turbulence, distortion, and port noise. Polk refined their current Power Port technology specifically for the Legend series by fine-tuning the geometry of the port flare. Hear and feel the difference; Polk Enhanced Power Port® produces less port noise and more powerful clean bass than traditionally ported loudspeakers.

Hi resolution certified

Your sound is only as good as your source. With High-Resolution certification, the Polk Legend L100 delivers clear and detailed high-end response. Female vocals are smooth and detailed without coloration. Plus, a minimum support of 40kHz perfectly reproduces the latest high resolution audio files with improved audio extension.

Iconic design

Designed to impress

Completely redesigned from the ground up to deliver the best sounding Polk speakers ever created. this speaker is the pinnacle of the Polk promise of delivering ‘the best speaker in its’ class’.

 

Anti-Diffraction Magnetic Grille

Every detail

40 years of dedication to building best in class products doesn’t happen without every single details being scrutinized, tweaked, reassessed until all the details are perfect.

Anti-Diffraction Magnetic Grille

Comes with a grille to cover the front baffle and a second grille for the top to cover the optional height module when installed. Computer modeled for a precision fit and to minimize sonic interference. The acoustically inert magnetic grilles offer a clean aesthetic without sacrificing sound.

Cabinets Built For Better Performance

Polk believes cabinets should be beautiful but add nothing to the playback. Polk Legend cabinets, braces, and internal enclosures are carefully engineered to minimize unwanted internal standing waves and eliminate unwanted resonances. The result is a cabinet that rigidly holds the transducers while faithfully reproducing recordings.

Large Dual 5-Way Binding Posts

Perfect for easy setup, they ensure the most direct, efficient, and loss-less connection possible. Dual binding posts support both bi-wire and bi-amping.
