Safe Limits of Operation
Polk specifies the recommended amplification range for each of its passive (non-amplified) loudspeakers. Typically
that specification will be expressed
as a range of power such as 20-200 Watts (per channel). It is important to understand what those numbers mean
when choosing a receiver or amplifier for your Polk loudspeakers. The lower number indicates the lowest continuous
rated power that will yield acceptable performance in a typical listening environment. The higher number indicates
the highest per channel power that should be used with your Polk speakers. That number should not be confused
with a “Power Handling” specification, and it does not imply that the speaker will safely handle that full amount of
power on a long-term basis. We specify a wide range of power ratings because not all electronics manufacturers use
the same method for rating power. In fact, high quality lower-rated amplifiers sound better and play louder than low
quality units with higher power rating.
Similarly, we recommend using amplifiers and receivers with rated power above the Power Handling limits of our
speakers because having extra power available for short term peaks is conducive to better sound quality, maximum
dynamic range and effortless high volume output. But we strongly urge you not to use the full power of your amplifier
or receiver for daily listening.
Loudspeakers can be damaged when an amplifier, regardless of its wattage, is made to play at higher listening
levels than its power can clearly produce. Operation at this level can result in very high levels of audible distortion
originating in the amplifier, which can add a harsh, gritty sound to your listening material. If you hear distortion—turn
the volume down or risk damaging your speakers. You can damage just about any speaker, regardless of power
rating, if you drive an amplifier to or beyond the point of distortion.
