Product Description The Atrium 55 Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeaker is the ultimate in flexibility, reliability and high fidelity sound quality for the great outdoors. The Atrium 55 gives you the freedom to put speakers anywhere you want high performance sound. The kitchen, the den, the guestroom, the patio or pool, even the backyard BBQ pit. Sure, there are lots of "outdoor" speakers out there. But look at the fine print. Many of them are suitable only for placement in sheltered locations. The rugged Atrium 55 meets or exceeds stringent industry and military specifications for full exposure to the elements for years of reliable high performance sound anywhere in and around your home. Incredible sound? anywhere you want it, with the versatile Polk Audio Atrium Series of Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers.
Amazon.com Product Description Want to take great Polk Audio speaker sound outdoors? Check out the indoor/outdoor 100-watt Atrium 55s. The all stainless steel and brass hardware is completely rustproof, as are the aluminum brackets that allow multiple mounting options and full 90-degree rotation: aim them to deliver the best possible sound in a variety of locations. The rustproof aluminum grilles have 55 percent open area for superior sound quality. Most importantly, the Atrium 55s rugged, weatherproof, design meets or exceeds several military specifications for water, wind, salt, and corrosion. Plus, the white finish is paintable so it can be matched to its surroundings.
Inside the completely sealed enclosure is a 5.25-inch Dynamic Balance mineral-filled polymer driver with butyl rubber suspension for pumping out amazing bass, while its 1-inch soft dome tweeter with neodymium magnet broadly distributes high frequencies to cover a large area with high fidelity sound. Polk's Dynamic Balance technology produces flat frequency response, sharp detail, transparency and an ability to play program material with wide dynamic range at life-like volume levels without a hint of strain. The sound is always clean, clear, and effortless. The sculpted front baffle and rounded enclosure minimizes diffraction (sound reflecting off of hard edges) for more open and lifelike imaging.
Connect them to an amplifier or receiver using the set's gold-plated five-way speaker-level binding posts. The Atrium 55s are also voice-matched to Polk's RTi speakers, and therefore make great surrounds in a complete Polk home theater system with the ability to handle up to 100 watts per channel.
What's in the Box Pair, Atrium 55 speakers (white), mounting brackets, manual, 2-year parts and labor warranty.
Excellent productMay 10, 2010 P. Khurana The speakers are great for backyard/deck and pool patio. They were easy to install though the wall bracket had to be bought. Excellent sound quality. Great buy!
Awesome SpeakersApril 30, 2010 Rick(Burlington, VT USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased these for an outdoor "zone" for my sonos system, I couldn't be happier. The powered sonos amp puts out 50W per channel and that is enough for these polk atrium 55s. For being outside (or even inside) the bass is amazing. The overall sound outputted by these is impressive, so much that I just ordered another pair for my backyard.

Outside entertaining has never been better. After 2 years with the rock speakers, finally going bust, we had to come up with a better solution. We did our research and bought the Polk speakers. We were so impressed and so are our friends. Loud and clear. Love 'em!

Using the Polk Audio Atrium 55 outside by pool. Great sound, projection and bass. I have really cranked them up at times and they have had no problem handling the volume.
Oustanding Weather Proof SoundJuly 13, 2009 Jason E. Bailey(Nashvegas, TN) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've installed Polk speakers in every car I've owned and have always been pleased with their outstanding sound quality, but was a little doubtful that I'd get the same great sound in weatherproof speakers. After listening to these beauties on my deck over the last 2 months, I'm please to report that they sound outstanding. Fantastic bass, great detail and great stereo field no matter how loud, soft or distant. Also, these speakers sat unmounted on my deck railing thru showers and one horrific rain/thunderstorm and are no worse for the wear. If you're considering outdoor speakers, make sure you go with all weather or weather proof as opposed to weather resistant, and I highly recommend these Polk speakers in particular. (I bought them on Amazon for $150 for the pair, so check around the site for prices.)
