    • Brand: Polk Audio
    • Model Number: TL3 BLACK
  • Audio
    • Speaker Type: Bookshelf
    • Enclosure Type: Bass reflex
    • RMS Power: 75 watts (The maximum amount of continuous power the device is able to handle.)
    • Peak Power Handling: 150 watts (The maximum amount of power an electronic device, like a speaker, can handle without damage. This refers to short bursts of power, while root mean square (RMS) power handling indicates the amount of continuous power a device can sustain. Higher levels of distortion can also occur at peak power levels when the device is powered beyond its recommended usage.)
    • Impedance: 8 ohms (Describes the resistance of an electric signal throughout the system. Devices with low impedance require less power to deliver optimal signals but are more at risk for damage from overloading. Higher impedance requires more power but is more protected from overload damage.)
    • Minimum Frequency Response: 90 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
    • Maximum Frequency Response: 31 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The maximum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
    • Sensitivity: 88 decibels
    • High Resolution Audio: true (Hear music the way musicians and sound technicians intended it to be heard. Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)

Experience big-speaker performance from a compact design with this Polk Audio Blackstone TL Series TL3 BLACK compact speaker that uses Dynamic Balance technology to reveal the sharpest details and a lifelike transparency.

Speaker Buying Guide

  • 3-1/4" aerated polypropylene cone: With long linear excursion capabilities in a compact enclosure space for loud volume with less distortion.
  • 3/4" ring radiator tweeter: For incredible accuracy and detail.
  • Dynamic Balance technology: Produces a flat frequency response to reveal the sharpest details and a lifelike transparency. No strain even at high volume.
  • Time Lens technology: Aligns the acoustic centers of the tweeter and midbass driver on the same spatial plane for superior imaging. Acoustic lens incorporated in the grille provides a smooth frequency response.
  • PowerPort bass venting technology: Decreases port turbulence and helps eliminate port noise for a massive boost in bass response up to 3dB.
  • Optimized Linear Motion (OLM) motor structure: Reduces distortion and extends the dynamic range into big-speaker territory.
  • Gold-plated 5-way binding posts: For safe, efficient connections.
  • Steel-reinforced curved enclosure design: With rigid steel plates reduces internal resonances, even at high volumes.
  • Multiple mounting options: Including wall, shelf and stand mounting to suit a variety of needs. Built-in keyhole slots and inserts fit most brackets.
  • Easy system building: Can be combined with a subwoofer (not included) to create low-frequency effects or Blackstone TL3 speakers (not included) to expand your system into the realms of 6.1, 7.1 and beyond.
  • 90Hz - 31kHz: For faithful sound reproduction.
  • 8 ohms impedance: To conduct power through the speaker.

Q: How are they connected and what do I need to purchase to connect to my TV?

A: These are not meant to be interfaced directly with a television. You will need to purchase an amp/receiver for these speakers to be attached via speaker wire. At that point you will need to connect your amp/receiver to the TV via HDMI (cable) or RCA (cables).
