Compact High-end POLK AUDIO RM7000 HT/Music Speakers with Sub Introduction

The RM7000 speaker system consists of two “RM Series II” satellites for the left and right channels (or surrounds), a matching center-channel, and a PSW100 powered bass module. This system was produced from 1994 to 1996 and sold for US$1400.00. It is physically a relatively compact system - but there is nothing compact about the performance. It has an overall frequency response of 22 to 22000 Hz. Recommended amplifier power is 25-150 watts. A review on the Audioholics forum stated “… Listening to the RM7000 system (with and without the surround speakers) confirmed its excellence. … It all adds up to a truly first-rate system for a very reasonable price. As with any good sub/sat speaker system, the sound gave no hint of its divided audio personality. And the RM7000 seemed adept at reproducing whatever material we fed to it, whether regular two-channel stereo or, with two more speakers added, full surround sound.” This system would be perfect for any situation where space is at a premium but high sound quality is required – for example a home theatre system or dedicated 2-channel music system in a smaller room, or a gaming system. The included original owner’s manual described a range of configuration options for 2-channel and home theatre systems. The PSW100 subwoofer uses a sophisticated “high-velocity compression-drive” design that incorporates two linked internal enclosures, one sealed and the other ported, to achieve bass down to 22 Hz from an 8-inch driver and 65 watt RMS amplifier ( +-3 dB limits are 31 to 150 Hz – impressive performance. The subwoofer has high and low-level (RCA) inputs, volume control, an adjustable low pass filter from 50 to 150 Hz, and phase selection of 0 or 180 degrees. Subwoofer dimensions: 14”H x 11”W x 20”D. The heavy compact 2-way “RM Series II” satellites and center speaker are magnetically shielded and sealed. Each has a 3-1/2” cone low-frequency driver and a ¾” dome tweeter. The drivers are “time aligned,” with the tweeter stepped back about 1-3/4 inches from the woofer. The enclosures are molded using attractive dense speckled gray polymer like that used on some Kenwood turntable bases. Satellite dimensions: 7”H x 3.5”W x 5.5”D.

The subwoofer was opened up to inspect the driver. It is in excellent condition. A great sounding attractive sound system.
