Review: Compact Audio Surprise - Compact Audio Surprise! I purchased two Polk Audio TL 1 speakers in an attempt to add true 5.1 Surround Sound for a Yamaha YHT-S401 sound bar. While I was pretty happy with the YHT-S401's "virtual" 7.1 capabilities, adding the TL 1's as satellite surround sound left/right speakers for true 5.1 sound to this sound bar system really created a superior sound stage experience. Good to know: -Excellent value -.5" Silk dome tweeter , 2.5" midrange driver and injection-molded diaphragm results in surprising well blended sound -Very good high frequency capabilities; less capable with low frequencies but was designed to be pared with a separate subwoofer -High quality, solid construction made of molded high-density resin -Beautiful piano-black resin = lots of fingerprints -Best for small to mid-sized rooms -I carefully compared the TL1s to the more expensive (larger speaker, tweeter & driver ) Polk Satellite TL2's in the same series and while the TL 2's sounded great too, I didn't hear any improvements in my setup and room size over the less expensive ( smaller speaker, tweeter, driver) TL1s. -For the best 5.1 surround sound experience try placing these or any other satellite ( surround Left/Right) speakers at ear level and to the left and right of where you normally sit--not behind you. Note for Yamaha YHT-S401 owners, when I first connected these speakers to the YHT-S401's receiver ( SR/SL) the volume from these speakers was very low. However, once I adjusted the Left/Center/Right speakers on the sound bar to -1 for Left/Right sound bar speakers and 0 for the center sound bar speaker the TL 1 performed as expected even loud ( I have the TL 1 set to +3/+4 ). Also don't forget to change the sound bar from 3Ch to 5 Ch when using the TL 1 satellite speakers.
Review: Nice Little Speakers - Needed little back speakers for my AV system, this fit the bill. These little guys are solidly made and setup for easy connection to a stand and the wires. And, they sound great. Perfect.

## Features

- Time Lens— Tweeter and mid‑bass centers share one plane for superior imaging, as the acoustic lens in the grille smoothes the tweeter's frequency response. TL Series creates imaging and frequency balance in a small, high‑performance satellite speaker
- TL1 satellite aperiodic-tuned rear port blends with a subwoofer by controlling airflow, combining acoustic suspension bass extension with ported enclosure mid-bass boost for better extension without distortion.
- The home audio speakers have a curved enclosure design that employs non-parallel surfaces that not only lead to a stronger, more rigid and acoustically inert enclosure, but they also result in less audible coloration from internal surface resonances.
- The stereo speakers feature a 1/2 silk dome tweeter for crisp, clear imaging and smooth response.
- The Polk Audio speakers feature a 2-1/2 long-throw driver with Dynamic Balance driver technology-Polk's patented transducer design process tunes materials to produce a flat frequency response, with sharp detail and transparency.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the differs btween these and the tl2s**
A: We'll, some differences are that  the tl1's are smaller, in dimension, and use smaller drivers, and possibly offer a different materials make-up in regards to the mid-range drivers.  The tl1 tweeter(high frequency driver) is 1/4in smaller, 1/2in compared with the 3/4in tweeter of the tl2 speaker.   The mid-range driver of the tl1 is in the 2 1/2in size class, and is listed as aerated polypropylene, and I believe it is a product of their laser imaging research, like their LSI, a past reference series, and the tl3.  These aerated polypropylene drivers are positioned below the super cell aerated polypropylene drivers in their current "reference" LSIM series offerings.  The tl2's woofer(mid-range driver) offering is a 3 1/4in in size class, and the material composition however is  listed only as an injection moulded composite, and I suspect and might be the "lower-end" regular polypropylene  of older technology, or the newer "higher-end" aerated polypropylene(like tl1 & tl3).  I doubt it would use super cell, and still be positioned below the tl3..  My bets on regular polypropylene, this could support a pricing mode difference in the tl line-up, between the tl2 and tl3 offerings..  I think the tl2 speaker supports a larger frequency range than the tl1 speakers, as well, this doesn't denote "higher-fidelity" however, within all frequencies.  I would likely think with the tl1, you might crossover your sub-woofer higher, because I'm guessing the tl1 system would be more sub-woofer dependant, for lower frequencies.  This tl1 product might place higher demands on a "sub-woofer" solution.  The tl1's likely also make higher demands of an amp, in order to produce the lower frequency range, as larger drives, afaik, in comparison, are typically more efficient for reaching lower frequencies, and the tl2 offers larger drivers.  This might affect performance, especially at higher volumes.  Conversely, the higher frequency driver damping might be easier with the tl1's, and perhaps they might be more effective there.  IMO, I've read subjective accounts of the tl1's sounding "better than" or "the same" as tl2's, and vice versa.

**Q: Do these speakers have a thread hole for mounting?**
A: Yes. They do.

**Q: My living room is 23'x25' do you think they would sound good with 4 of them on the walls, with the matching center speaker and 2 subwoofers ?**
A: I have a almost identical size room.  I replaced my older Optimus wall speakers and center speaker with 4 of these Polk Blackstone TL1 speakers, a TL1 Polk center speaker and used my existing Polk PSW-10 subwoofer, and the sound improvement was PHENOMAL!!!  I am not sure that you would need 2 subwoofers.  I highly recommend these speakers.  They are small but very powerful

**Q: Would these be ok sitting on their sides? We have a narrow shelf to put them on.**
A: They can be put on the sides they should work fine
