Polk Audio RM-2000 (c. 1993)
Not much is documented about the Polk Audio RM-2000. The only surviving record is a single dealer listing in HiFI-Stereo (July 1993, p.106). It advertised the RM-2000 as a three-piece subwoofer/satellite system with an MSRP of $750.
According to that listing, the two satellites each used a 3/4" dome tweeter and a 3-1/2" midrange. The subwoofer carried two 6-1/2" drivers plus a single 10" sub-bass radiator, which is essentially a passive-radiator arrangement. It reinforces the low end without needing a larger enclosure. The system was rated to handle 125 watts.
Beyond that listing, the RM-2000 left almost no trace. Production years, frequency response, cabinet dimensions, and where it sat in Polk's lineup are unrecorded in the usual period sources. It doesn't appear alongside the company's well-documented Monitor or SDA families, and no owner impressions have surfaced. It looks to have been a short-lived early-1990s entry in a crowded sub/sat market.
