An annoying, familiar crackle/chirp from surround speakers.

Update. It's been months and Polk still hasn't gotten permission for the hundreds of people crackling/chirping. I was told it would be fixed with a firmware update. So. I've been waiting and now I'm stuck with this crappy soundbar just like so many other people! Original: I see a lot of feedback and comments all over the internet and here about the same problem I'm having. There is an annoying popping/chirping sound coming from the rear surround speakers. I didn't send the system back because…

Outstanding customer service

This is the third Polk product I have purchased. confuse but problems with the product. I first contacted tech support through their Facebook page. I explained my problem and without hesitation they said they would send me a replacement. Two days later today, the FedEx truck stopped. access road and introduced a complete replacement of the system. I am shocked. I didn't have to beg and go out on a full moon and howl at the moon to get attention. Today they made me a regular customer. And now…

Terrible - do not buy

This device is terrible. Among the more expensive soundbars, this one should be at the bottom of the ranking. Back when I was into stereos, Polk was a manufacturer of high quality stereos. This name attracted me to this device. How disappointed I am. From day one this device was inefficient, but I kept using it, hoping the problem was in the setting and not the device. I was wrong but at that point I finally realized that it was the design of the device itself, all warranties and return…

Pros
  • GOOGLE CHROMECAST WIRELESS MUSIC STREAMING from your smartphone, tablet or other compatible Android device for a multi-room system. Now you can stream your favorite music tracks to the soundbar and enjoy unlimited playback with services like Pandora, Spotify and more.

Polk Audio MagniFi Max SR Home Theater Surround Soundbar

If you like deep, clean bass like me then this is for you. My advice: first go to a Best Buy or electronics store and test out some of the soundbars. Because of the good reviews, I made the mistake of buying the first one. I ordered a Bose Solo 5 without even opening it. I went to Best Buy to see if the Bose was worth it. It was clear, but it didn't have the deep, clean bass that Bose typically delivers. I think I expected too much from a soundbar without a subwoofer. Bose's high-end soundbar…

Pros
  • ENDLESS CONNECTIONS - 3 HDMI inputs (HDCP 2.2 compatible), 1 HDMI ARC output, optical connection for Blu-ray players and set-top boxes, analog aux Input (3.5mm) for any non-digital device plus Bluetooth, USB and Internet connectivity
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

Too many problems for one soundbar. And the sound quality when listening to music is much lower than expected (everything is ok with the movie). Another strange moment: When the sound comes from the computer through the TV to the soundbar, dolby does not work. When playing through a TV through hdvideobox - too. But if you also transfer the same file with the movie to a USB flash drive and plug it in and the TV set - the treasured white light on the soundbar will report that dolby is working.

Pros
  • Good sound in normal mode, design. If you listen to dolby digital - the difference with the usual sound is strongly felt for the better.
Cons
  • The crunch of the rear speakers in normal listening mode. Disappears in dolby mode. Firmware ates didn't help. Didn't start out of the box. At first, I didn’t connect to google home, I didn’t cling to bluetooth. Tried 10 times - zero result. The next day I got hooked on a blue-tooth, after another 2 days I found it in google home. What it was - I do not understand.
