Polk Audio Blackstone TL1 Satellite Speaker (Single, Black) | PowerPort Technology | Hi-Gloss Blackstone Finish | Compact Size, Crisp Sound | Pair with TL Series for Complete Home Entertainment

Description:

  • Time Lens technology-The acoustic centers of the tweeter and mid-bass driver are located in the same plane for superior imaging, while the acoustic lens incorporated in the grille smoothes the tweeter's frequency response. The TL Series creates imaging and frequency balance previously impossible in small, high performance satellite speakers.
  • TL1 satellite aperiodic-tuned rear port enables better blending with a subwoofer. This design combines the bass extension of an acoustic suspension enclosure with the mid-bass boost of a ported enclosure by controlling airflow through the port for better extension without distortion.
  • Curved enclosure design employs non-parallel surfaces that not only lead to a stronger, more rigid and acoustically inert enclosure, but they also result in less audible coloration from internal surface resonances.
  • 1/2 silk dome tweeter for crisp, clear imaging and smooth response that's never tiring.
  • 2-1/2 long-throw driver with Dynamic Balance driver technology-Polk's patented transducer design process scientifically tunes materials to produce a flat frequency response, with sharp detail, transparency and the ability to play loud without strain.

  • The TL1 satellite speaker pair brings digital surround sound excitement to home entertainment in an ultra-compact design. The silk dome tweeter and mid-range driver coupled with Time Lens technology deliver smooth highs, superior audio detail and pinpoint imaging. Polk's proprietary, patented Dynamic Balance technology tunes out distortion-causing driver and system resonances. It also features an "aperiodic-tuned rear port" that is designed for better bass extension and a pleasing mid-bass boost, with the ability to deliver great sound even in the open or against a wall. The unit’s hi-Gloss "Blackstone" finish matches today's most stylish flat-panel TVs and furniture. Built-in keyhole slots and threaded inserts makes for easy mounting of the speaker.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Compact Audio Surprise

While I was pretty happy with the YHT-S401's "virtual" 7.1 capabilities, adding the TL 1's as satellite surround sound left/right speakers for true 5.1 sound to this sound bar system really created a superior sound stage experience.Good to know:-Excellent value-.5" Silk dome tweeter , 2.5" midrange driver and injection-molded diaphragm results in surprising well blended sound-Very good high frequency capabilities; less capable with low frequencies but was designed to be pared with a separate subwoofer-High quality, solid construction made of molded high-density resin-Beautiful piano-black resin = lots of fingerprints-Best for small to mid-sized rooms-I carefully compared the TL1s to the more expensive (larger speaker, tweeter & driver ) Polk Satellite TL2's in the same series and while the TL 2's sounded great too, I didn't hear any improvements in my setup and room size over the less expensive ( smaller speaker, tweeter, driver) TL1s.-For the best 5.1 surround sound experience try placing these or any other satellite ( surround Left/Right) speakers at ear level and to the left and right of where you normally sit--not behind you.Note for Yamaha YHT-S401 owners, when I first connected these speakers to the YHT-S401's receiver ( SR/SL) the volume from these speakers was very low. However, once I adjusted the Left/Center/Right speakers on the sound bar to -1 for Left/Right sound bar speakers and 0 for the center sound bar speaker the TL 1 performed as expected even loud ( I have the TL 1 set to +3/+4 ). Also don't forget to change the sound bar from 3Ch to 5 Ch when using the TL 1 satellite speakers.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing sound, great value

    D. · December 5, 2021

    Using 2 of these as rear surround speakers in my 5.1 system in my bedroom. They are simply fantastic... Crossed them over at 120Hz and they are handling everything perfectly,. Movies have really come to life. Especially great sound considering their compact size. Easy to install on wall with the keyhole mount. Quality construction. Movie sound effects are rocking with these. My bedroom is 11' X 15' and they are perform amazingly, paired with paradigm Monitor front, center and subwoofer and a Denon AVR-S540BT AVRHighly recommend these speakers,. Polk has done a great job

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great surround speaker

    J.A. · March 10, 2025

    I ordered two speakers. One speaker was great. The other one was defective. The seller sent replacement but took a week to get which is OK if you’re not in a hurry.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Sounds Fine

    R.D. · January 9, 2025

    My other speakers are all BOSE and very nice quality and I have an Onkyo THX reciever. This speaker provides rich depth that is needed to balance out with the other speakers.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Get Happy Ears!

    j. · June 3, 2015

    Got a pair from Bolo Warehouse for less than $100. Listed as slightly scratched, they came in pristine condition, if you ignore a couple fingerprints where they had been inspected. These are nice, efficient 2 ways. Polk lists them at 89db. They make great satellite/surrounds and have a broad dynamic range to them, considering the woofer size. I was able to kick down the crossover frequency of my surround channels from 240hz to 120hz and the TL1s sounded very clear. While they are fine for video surround playback, where I thought they really shined was in 5.1 audio playback. I have an extensive and eclectic music collection, and these ate up everything I threw at them...Jazz, Blues, Rock, R&B, Punk, Synth-Pop, Trance, Trip-hop, Dubstep, Classical. Upgrade those crappy old single speaker satellites that came with your 5.1 or 7.1 system with a pair of these. Your ears will be glad you did.

    1.0 out of 5 stars cross-over problem

    B.A. · April 15, 2025

    I bought 2 of these small sat. speakers and was very happy with clarity from a small speaker. After one year the crossover died on one of the speakers making it unusable. I contacted Bose and their reps were knowledgeable ,but even though there is a 5 year warranty, they would only send new parts to replace the problem. It is fairly easy to take the speaker apart, but so far they have only sent two cones one of which was damaged and the wrong part for this model. What broke was the cross over and still waiting to see if they can make this right for me, so far it has taken 2 months

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great 7.1 surround sound

    B.L.M. · May 15, 2023

    I bought 6 of these and TL SERIES subwoofer and center speaker connected to denon 7.2 receiver for small basement area it sounds good for the price. Without occupying any space on the floor provides similar quality sound with these wall mounted satellite speaker for 150 inch 4K projection on wall . I was able to setup a budget level 7.2 Dolby atmos home theater without compromising the quality

    Pequeñas pero de gran calidad

    J. · July 5, 2020

    I replaced my older Polk Audio satellite speakers with these, and the center speakers and the difference was amazing. It was really good before, now its stellar. These would not be good without a sub woofer, which i got the 10" sub to replace my old 8" sub.I highly recommend these, for the price, and sound quality, you cant beat it, but again for surround sound system, haven't tried them with just music yet, but I'm sure they are fine.
