The Pok MagniFi MAX AX SR delivers expansive Dolby Atmos sound with a powerful bar, sub, and surround speakers. (AC power required.)

The MagniFi MAX AX SR sound bar system offers big sound with support for detailed multichannel formats like Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. The bar packs an impressive 11 built-in speakers that direct sounds for greater immersion, including up-firing drivers for overhead effects.

A wireless subwoofer adds weight and impact to your movie and game soundtracks, helping you feel the action on-screen. And wireless surround speakers produce true wraparound effects so you can hear the action behind and around you.

If you want to chill and listen to music, this bar has you covered with built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Chromecast built-in, and Spotify Connect. With all these options, it's easy to wirelessly stream your favorite tunes from your phone directly to the sound bar. Need to decompress after a long day? You're just a couple swipes away from the Black Keys' "Just Got to Be" — and that always seems to make the evening feel a little smoother.

Apple fans are in good hands, too. AirPlay 2 lets you stream using an iPhone® or iPad® and connect the sound bar to the AirPlay ecosystem. If you're a subscriber to Apple Music®, you can even use Siri to control and play that service with your voice.

The included 10" subwoofer connects wirelessly to the sound bar for easy placement and setup. Just turn it on and hit "Connect" on the back of the sub. With a ported cabinet that delivers extended bass, this sub helps bring the rumble to your favorite movies and games.

Quiet conversations can sometimes get lost in the mix of a movie or game's soundtrack. We've all strained our ears at some point to catch important lines. The MagniFi MAX AX SR has a dedicated center channel to bring conversations front and center. And Polk's VoiceAdjust™ technology lets you further boost voice levels to make sure you're consistently getting clear, intelligible dialogue.

Wireless surround speakers are easy to set up and have a clean look that blends into the background of your room.

The sound bar includes a remote with simple, intuitive controls. But it's also pre-programmed to work with most TV remotes currently on the market. No scrambling for the right remote — you can just use the one already in your hands.

The MagniFi MAX AX SR's preset sound modes also help you make quick adjustments with the press of a button. There are presets for movies, music, and watching TV at night when the kids are down for the count.

This sound bar system includes a pair of surround speakers that deliver true, wraparound rear-channel effects for deeper immersion. The speakers also connect wirelessly to the sound bar, so you only need to plug in to an AC outlet instead of running speaker wire across your room.
