Polk V80 Vanishing V Series High-Performance In-Ceiling Speaker
The Polk V80 in-ceiling speaker is engineered for listeners who demand immersive sound without compromising interior design. Designed as part of Polk Audio’s Vanishing V Series, the V80 blends advanced acoustic technology with an ultra-discreet aesthetic, making it ideal for premium home cinema systems, Dolby Atmos setups, and high-quality stereo music installations.
Whether installed in a living room, dedicated home theatre, or multi-room audio system, the Polk V80 delivers powerful, room-filling performance while remaining virtually invisible once installed.
Precision-Engineered Sound at Any Volume
At the heart of the Polk V80 is Klippel Distortion Optimization, an advanced measurement and tuning process that ensures flawless motor structure, precise voice-coil alignment, and controlled suspension movement. The result is exceptionally clean, accurate sound reproduction with minimal distortion, even at higher listening levels.
This technology allows the speaker to maintain tonal balance, clarity, and dynamic impact across a wide frequency range, making it equally effective for cinematic effects and detailed music playback.
Dynamic Balance® Drivers for Clear, Impactful Audio
Polk’s Dynamic Balance® polypropylene cone technology is purpose-built to eliminate unwanted resonances that can colour sound. The lightweight yet rigid cone design enables:
. Clear and articulate midrange vocals
. Tight, responsive bass with impressive depth
. High efficiency for better output with less power
Combined with a dedicated tweeter, the V80 produces a well-balanced soundstage with crisp highs and controlled low-frequency performance.
Virtually Invisible Design with Sheer Grille™
The Polk V80 is designed to disappear into your ceiling. Its wafer-thin Sheer Grille™ sits nearly flush with the surface, reducing visual impact to an absolute minimum. Finished in white and paintable to match your décor, it delivers a clean, architectural look that complements modern interiors.
This makes the V80 an excellent choice for design-focused spaces where visible speakers are not desired.
Ideal for Home Cinema and Dolby Atmos Systems
With wide frequency response and high sensitivity, the Polk V80 is perfectly suited for advanced surround sound applications, including:
. Dolby Atmos height channels
. Surround and overhead effects
. Stereo ceiling-mounted music systems
Its open-back design allows it to integrate seamlessly into ceiling cavities while delivering expansive, enveloping audio.
