    Manufacturer's Description

    The Most Important Speaker in Your Home Theater

    The center channel is the most important speaker in a home theater set up and the R400 delivers crisp and easy to understand dialogue for all your favorite movies and shows. With dual 6.5" Turbine cones and 1" Pinnacle tweeter, the R400 offers serious home entertainment impact.

    High Definition Pinnacle Ring Radiator Tweeter

    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, it delivers ultra-clear, crisp highs without unwanted coloration or distortions. The Pinnacle tweeter features a finely tuned waveguide that dramatically improves the dispersion of high frequency energy ensuring a broad "sweet spot" while the critically damped rear-chamber helps defeat any unwanted resonances. Hi-Res certified, the Pinnacle Tweeter is designed for today's two-channel music listening as well as multi-channel 3D audio found in movies, sports, and video game soundtracks.

    6.5" Turbine Cone

    Polk developed the Turbine cone specifically for our 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 molded Turbine geometry which dramatically increases stiffness and damping, without adding mass. You will hear every detail and experience a smooth, detailed mid-range and effortless bass.

    Polk Newly Patented X-Port (ETF)

    Polk's newly patented X-Port incorporates an Eigentone Filter (ETF) offering distortion-free, effortless bass. Consisting of a set of closed-pipe absorbers that are specifically tuned to catch and eliminate traditional speaker distortions. X-Port ensures that the upper bass and mid-range are free of port and cabinet resonances for smooth, detailed audio.

    Sleek Modern Design

    The Reserve R400 center channel speaker is available in three classic vinyl finishes: Midnight Black, Satin White and Chestnut Brown. Satin White and Chestnut Brown coming late 2021.

    Cabinets Built for Better Performance

    Polk believes cabinets should be beautiful and add nothing to the playback. Polk Reserve 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 transducer array while it faithfully reproduces recordings.

      Product Description

      Enhance the dialogue of your movies and TV shows with the black Polk Audio Reserve Series R400 2-Way Center Channel Speaker. It can handle 20 to 200W of power from your amplifier and is equipped with two 6.5" polypropylene turbine woofers and a 1" Pinnacle Ring Radiator tweeter, plus two rear-firing X-Port bass ports. It has a frequency response of 48 Hz to 39 kHz for enhanced treble and midrange reproduction. Rubber feet help reduce unwanted resonance from your cabinet or TV stand.

      Why the Reserve Series

      Polk Reserve is a premium loudspeaker series that incorporates the custom transducers from Polk's flagship Legend series alongside new Polk innovations in cabinet and port design to deliver flagship music and movie sound without flagship prices. It is Dolby Atmos and DTS:X compatible and certified for Hi-Res Audio.

      Pinnacle Ring Radiator Tweeter

      Born of 50 years of speaker engineering, the Pinnacle Ring Radiator Tweeter features a finely tuned waveguide that dramatically improves the dispersion of high-frequency energy, ensuring a broad sweet spot and consistent sound in every listening position. Hi-Res certified, the Pinnacle Tweeter is designed for today's two-channel music listening as well as multichannel 3D audio found in movies, sports, and video game soundtracks.

      Turbine Cone

      The Polk-designed Turbine Cone is a foam-core, injection-molded cone made of polypropylene with turbine geometry that dramatically increases stiffness and damping without adding mass. This results in a smooth, detailed mid-range with three-dimensional imaging that brings music and movies to live.

      Polk Patented X-Ports

      Featuring an Eigentone Filter (ETF), Polk's newly patented X-Port consists of a set of closed-pipe absorbers specifically tuned to dramatically reduce traditional speaker distortions, creating deep, effortless bass. This ensures that the upper bass and mid-range are free of port and cabinet resonances for clear, smooth, and detailed sound.

      Hi-Res Audio Certified

      Hi-Res Audio files deliver sound with quality superior to that of CDs. For a loudspeaker to qualify for the Hi-Res certified badge, it must be able to play up to 40 kHz. Reserve speakers meet these requirements, ensuring all the high-resolution detail delivered from the amplifier is played back faithfully by the speaker.

      IMAX Enhanced Certified

      During the development of the Legend series, Polk helped the team at IMAX create the IMAX Enhanced loudspeaker specification, ensuring that only the highest-performance home theater speakers would qualify. The Reserve series' IMAX enhanced certification guarantees an unforgettably huge and dynamic home theater experience when enjoying IMAX Enhanced movies, TV shows, and music.

      Dolby Atmos and DTS:X Compatible

      The Polk Reserve series is compatible with both Dolby Atmos- and DTS:X-enabled A/V receivers and pre-amp processors as well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X virtualizers.

      Timbre-Matched Configurability

      Mix and match Reserve speakers to fit most rooms and configurations without concern. The Reserve series guarantees great, timbre-matched sound in any configuration.

      Detailed Imaging & Soundstage

      Driven by the Reserve's proprietary technologies, the series delivers exquisitely balanced, dynamic, and detailed sound every time.

      Traditional Home Theater

      Step up to dynamic, detailed home theater. Choose the Reserve series configuration that matches your room's needs, and add an optional HTS series subwoofer to provide even more bass.

      Atmos & IMAX

      The Reserve series is IMAX certified and compatible with Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Auro 3D home theater technologies. Adding the optional Reserve 900HT height modules to your Reserve home theater means your movie room is ready for anything, including the most dynamic 3D audio movie mixes available.
