he compact Polk Assist is one versatile wireless speaker. It delivers clear, detailed sound — but it's not just for music. The speaker has Google Assistant built-in, so you can just tell it to play a song, give you a weather or news update, and more. Plus you'll have voice control over compatible smart home devices from Wemo, Philips Hue and others. You can also stream music from your portable device via Bluetooth. Oh — and it can also be part of a multi-room audio system, too.
Chromecast for high-quality audio streaming
The Polk Assist uses Google's Chromecast built-in wireless audio platform. Stream music over your Wi-Fi® network from your favorite apps on your smartphone or tablet, such as Spotify®, TIDAL, Pandora®, Google Play Music, TuneIn, and iHeartRadio. Chromecast also plays music directly from the cloud, including great-sounding high-resolution audio files up to 24-bit/96kHz.
Simple multi-room audio
You can also make the Polk Assist part of a wireless whole-house audio system using your Wi-Fi network and Polk MagniFi sound bar or other components and speakers with Chromecast built-in. Have a Polk Assist speaker in the kitchen play a Pandora station, while the Magnifi MAX in the family room plays a Spotify playlist. Or have multiple networked Polk speakers play the same song. And you can control it all just by saying "OK, Google."
Roon-compatible for serious music lovers
The Polk Assist is also compatible with Roon, a subscription digital music player you download to your smartphone, tablet, or computer. It gives you multi-room audio playback for all your Chromecast-compatible devices and more. Roon accesses your digital music collection from your iTunes library or NAS drive. It also works with your TIDAL subscription. Roon lets you do deep dives into your music, showing artist bios, photos, reviews, and lyrics. Roon can also suggest other artists and songs based on your selections, making it easy to discover new music you'll enjoy.
