When backyard "tunes" just aren't enough

Having a pair of Polks Atrium-series outdoor speakers installed in your backyard, on your deck, or around your pool is great. There's no doubt about it. You get to hear all your favorite tunes during get-togethers with friends. But sometimes you dream of something more. Something beyond ordinary "tunes" . . . You dream of an audio soundstage, outdoors. And the key to a full outdoor-audio experience? Bass audio from the Polk Atrium Sub10 outdoor subwoofer.

Massive bass

The deep, full texture of low-frequency audio adds a three-dimensional effect to any audio experience. Combining a 10" long-throw bass driver with dual 2" voice coils, the Atrium Sub10 serves up controlled, powerful bass audio with dramatically reduced distortion. Further, Dynamic Balance driver technology synthesizes materials, geometry, and construction to produce flat frequency response, sharp detail, and dynamic wide-range audio reproduction. You experience a high-realism soundstage like the one you expect in your home theater, on your deck or in your backyard.

Let it hail elephants

It's only natural to be a little concerned about installing high-performance speakers outside. In your backyard, speakers are no longer sheltered and protected — they're at the mercy of rain, snow, wind, dust, and hail. Ordinary speakers might wither on the vine, but not the Atrium Sub10 subwoofer from Polk. A marine-certified molded and sealed resin enclosure delivers the pinnacle of weather-resistance. It's just plain tough. How tough? The engineers at Polk say that an elephant can stand on the Sub10 (but they don't recommend trying this). Further, the Sub10's color-impregnated resin exterior will never lose its pure, vibrant terracotta color, but it is paintable, allowing you to custom fit its color to your backyard's look.

This sub does add a bottom sound to outdoor listening areas. It is placed in a corner of my patio, underneath my outdoor speakers. As suggested in the manual, I used a primer and spray paint oiled-bronze and the sub now matches my patio furniture and is barely noticeable wife requirement.

I am using the sub with a five year old pair Polk Audio Atrium 65 SDIs. These are playing through a Denon AVR-3312CI, using Zone 2 Due to wiring constraints from the receiver to the patio area, the Atrium 65s are not wired through the sub but these speakers and the sub are wired on separate runs from a speaker selector that is connected to the 3312. I can control the volume of the speakers and sub separately from the speaker selector. Therefore, I am not using the built in crossover on the sub so I do get some of the lower-mid range coming through the sub which can be annoying at lower volumes. However a decrease in the volume of the sub in concert with lowering the volume of the speaker connector, cures most of that problem.

All in all this sub does meet its purpose of adding bass to the outdoor area got to remember Im not in my mancave listening to high end speakers and sub...just on my patio area. I received a lot of compliments from friends and family and Im sure as I tweak the setup, Ill become even more happy with my sub.

Note the wiring instructions in the manual are incorrect. You need to go to the Polk Audio website and find the special update for connecting the sub. The instructions in the manual put the right channel out of phase.
