Product Description You just bought a new flat panel, wide screen HDTV. All you need is some great sound to go with that beautiful picture. How do you feel about installing speakers all around your room and running wires everywhere to add surround sound to your new TV? Don't worry, there's an easier way. The SurroundBar 360° DVD Theater is the best performing single-speaker surround sound theater system on the market. Polk Audio's exclusive patented SDA Surround Digital Technology eliminates the need for rear speakers. Our patented PowerPort Bass Venting Technology, advanced Digital Signal Processing and Neodymium motor structures create "built-in subwoofer bass" eliminating the need for a separate subwoofer.
A technological breakthrough featuring a host of innovations including a multifunction CD/DVD player with Faroudja DCDi video upscaler, AM/FM tuner and high-performance digital amplifier, the SurroundBar 360° DVD Theater offers tremendous value for your entertainment system. It can play your DVDs, CDs, MP3 and JPEG and Kodak photo discs and has a USB input for memory stick readers. You can also connect any video game, satellite/cable TV box, MP3 player or other external source. With its sleek two piece design, the SurroundBar 360° DVD Theater can complement any TV.
SDA stands for Stereo Dimensional Array, a patented Polk Audio exclusive*. Matthew Polk describes SDA Surround Technology as "a mixture of acoustical engineering, psychoacoustic principles and a little magic." To understand how SDA Surround Technology creates 360 degree surround sound, we must understand how sound works and how you perceive sound. Our ears are positioned at the sides of our head so we can distinguish exactly what direction a sound is coming from. The tiny difference in intensity and arrival time from one ear to the other allows us to sense immediately from which direction sound is coming.

POLK SOUNDBAR March 8, 2010 Christopher Dusendschon (Hollywood, Ca) This device performed better than expected and I'm very pleased with all facets: the shipping - arrived early, the product was easy to set up and the DVD quality is eye-popping. All in all, it was everything I expected, and I'm pleased with the purchase.
Pleased with SurroundBar March 5, 2010 Charles Haseltine (Santa Rosa, CA, USA) The Polk SurroundBar speaker system is compact and easy to install. The sound it produces is better than the TV's internal speakers and not as good as a $$$ full-on multiple-$peaker $ystem. For me, it's an acceptable compromise.
Polk audio bar March 4, 2010 Terry Burke (Indiana) Installed easy.
Sound is ok but still need to hook up my bass. Also, need to read manual and tweak it for better sound with movies.
Sure beats monitor speakers.

Amazon- Thanks for this wonderful sound system at a great price. Only issue for me is that it's not real stable on anything other than floor or mounted on the wall, with risk of falling or other damage. Otherwise, I like the flexability of its use.
Great fit for us - updated Mar-10 February 11, 2010 A. Lewis 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Update!!! 3 weeks after using the surroundbar, we heard a couple of loud "pops" and the sound was gone...forever. The right side of the bar was warm too the touch with a burned smell inside. I called Polk's customer service line the next business day. The guy said he had heard of one other instance of this. 2 days later I had UPS shipping labels emailed to me to send the unit back. I had to scrounge up boxes & packing materials as we had not kept the original packaging -a pain. The next day, I dropped the boxes off at UPS. One day later, I received at shipping notification that a new unit was on the way. We received it in less than a week and it's up and working now. Hopefully, this one won't do the same thing. I'm keeping the boxes, though, just in case. I'm very impressed with Polk's customer service and speeding delivery of a new unit (less than 2 weeks in all). I would buy from them again.
We recently moved and were looking for a new stereo receiver, dvd player (so we could move our olde dvd/vhs combo unit to another room) and improved sound for our 42" lcd tv. The room is a keeping room/small den, very open to the kitchen, with a vaulted ceiling, and no room for the 5-7 speakers in a home theater system. The Polk Surrondbar360 fit the bill perfectly. Since the soundbar sits in front of the tv (which sits on a cabinet), we wanted a separate dvd/receiver. The height of some other soundbars would block the tv screen and would require us raise the tv too much. Note--We did opt to buy a monitor stand which elevates the tv about 4 1/2 inches, which is the height of the soundbar. Hookups were relatively straight forward and the sound is great. We may add a separate sub-woofer later. Very pleased with the purchase.
