FEED FORWARD DISTORTION SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGY
This technology maximizes acoustic output as it reduces audible distortion. Feed Forward is a
zero latency system that maximizes dynamic output of the subwoofer system, without relying on
slow responding feedback techniques or broad band dynamic compression, which squeeze the
life out of the low end. What you hear is quick, precise bass output with minimal audible distor-
tion, even at ground shaking volume levels.
SURROUNDBAR360° SDA
SURROUND DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY
A tremendous evolution on the original SDA Surround
Technology, Polk SurroundBar Technology brings surround
sound-without the surround speakers into the next century.
Featured only in the exclusive SurroundBar 360° DVD Theater,
Polk Audio’s legendary SDA speaker systems revolutionized
speaker technology in the mid 1980’s and 1990’s and are still
prized today by audio enthusiast for their huge, totally
enveloping sound stage far beyond the capability of
conventional speakers. Original SDA is analog while SDA
Surround Digital uses the tremendous processing capability
of digital microchips to process the audio, a far more powerful
tool then the passive components of original SDA Technology.
A PATENTED TECHNOLOGICAL
BREAKTHROUGH
Polk Audio’s psychoacoustic research and technology have
produced a system capable of delivering a 360°degree surround
sound experience that stands above the rest. Unlike competing
products that attempt to eliminate the need for rear channel
speakers, the SurroundBar 360° DVD Theater is the only multi-
channel single-speaker surround system that works in any room
with easy setup, while eliminating the need for a subwoofer.
The enveloping sound from SDA Surround Digital is so realistic
in some cases it’s better than using 5 or more speakers!
