The Polk Audio Monitor 70 is a high-performance floor-standing loudspeaker designed for clear, accurate sound with robust bass and solid stereo imaging. It uses a bass-reflex MDF enclosure with a black oak vinyl finish and incorporates four 6.5-inch Bi-Laminate composite Dynamic Balance drivers plus a 1-inch Dynamic Balance dome tweeter. The cabinet is video/magnetically shielded for placement near TVs and other electronics without interference. It features a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, 90 dB sensitivity, a power handling range of 20-275 watts, and a frequency response of approximately 40-24,000 Hz (-3 dB), making it suitable for both home theater and hi-fi music systems. The slim tower measures about 8-7/8 inches wide, 43-1/4 inches high, and 15-3/4 inches deep, and includes dual 5-way binding post terminals that support bi-amping or bi-wiring.
