Polk Omni App

  • Dec 06, 2014 Said that the C1000A router is not capable of completing the connection with the Polk Omni application. Either replace the C1000A, or put a second wifi router downstream with a separate subnet for the Polk Omni app to be able to 'see' the speaker.

Executive Overview

Let’s face it, some of us just don’t have rooms available fora dedicated home theater or the logistics to setup speakers around the room.This is one of the reasons that sound bars have become so popular. You pretty much plug them in and they’reready to go. With the addition of a wireless sub you can get even more lowend sound in a easy to use setup.

Polkaudio announced an upgrade to their Omni SB1 sound bar at CES 2016 in LasVegas with their Omni SB1 Plus. This ultra-low profile, dialogue enhancing, 3.1sound bar system is designed to create a broad, enveloping soundstage for TV,movies, music and sports. In addition, the SB1 Plus lets you expand to a true5.1 home theater surround system with its built-in wireless rear surround speakertechnology (requires a Spring 2016 software update).

The displays shows the low-profile of the Polk SB1 Plus compared to competing products.

One of our favorite features of the SB1 Plus was the slim design. On the floor of CES Polk Audio demonstratedthis by placing backdrops of competitor models behind the SB1 Plus showing justhow streamline it is compared to the competition. Its ultra-low profile will not block your TVsbottom edge or IR ports.

The SB1 Plus also features Dolby Digital surround sound, an 8”wireless subwoofer, and is compatible with most TVs, cable boxes and theirrespective remotes. For the music lover, wirelessly stream music from yoursmartphone, tablet or computer with the Wi-Fi enabled SB1 Plus via the PolkOmni app, or use the included Bluetooth adapter for Bluetooth streaming.
To expand to a 5.1 home theater system with the SB1 Plus you can add either twoPolk Omni S2s or S2Rs, or any DTS Play-Fi speakers, as discrete rear left and right channel wireless surroundspeakers, or one S6 for single rear speaker stereo surround sound. The systemeven comes with a Polk Omni app to connect the sound bar to the S2, S2R or S6wireless speakers.

One of the most needed upgrades on the SB1 was the Bluetoothsupport. The new SB1 Plus comes with a separate Bluetooth adapter so you canswitch between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to play audio from more online sources like yourphone, tablet or computer and re-stream it to any Play-Fi speaker on yournetwork.

With all these new features and the addition ofan Ethernet port for spotty wifi coverage, the Polk Audio SB1 Plus Sound barmight be a contender for best budget sound bar of the year. We’ll have to get one in our hands on one fora full review to know more.

With sound bars being so popular these days it's time to up the ante. Polk audio announced an upgrade to their Omni SB1 sound bar at the 2016 CES Show in Las Vegas with their Omni SB1 Plus. This ultra-low profile, dialogue enhancing, 3.1 sound bar system with wireless sub and optional wireless rears for 5.1 sound was a big hit for Polk.
Polk takes the ordinary soundbar performance up a notch by incorporating DTS Play-Fi to support discrete surround speakers making a compelling case for those that don't want box speakers all around. Be sure to watch our YouTube Video overview to get all the details.
