My buddy and I installed these speakers for my new home entertainment system with
the PSW111 sub. What a great combo. Hats off to Crutchfield, who not only
recommended the speakers but also included the handy speaker labels.
Action movies, TV and music sound great. What a great value! Thanks again,
Crutchfield. Almost forgot to mention, really simple to install. Great design.

Good Sound, Easy To Install

These in-ceiling speakers are a great deal -- you get Polk-quality sound for around the same price that some stores with big yellow tags charge for their house brand. Installation was a pain for me, but that was due to my attic and insulation issues -- no fault on Polk's behalf. Once I had everything ready to hook up, these speakers fit right into the holes I made using the included template, they fit snugly, and basic drywall can support the weight of these without issue. Their sound is pretty impressive (nothing that will knock your socks off, but comparable to bookshelf speakers priced in the same range), and work wonderfully as surround or surround back speakers in a full home theater set-up. Acheiving quality sound while taking up zero space in a room is worth the effort of the installation. Finally, the Crutchfield team answered all of my installation questions promptly, which was important to me given this was my first pair of in-ceiling speakers. Can't say enough about the amazing customer service you get here. Pool that with an excellent price on good speakers, and the value is unmatched.

Polk Audio RC60i

Purchased Polk RC60i in ceiling speakers to use as my rear, surround speakers for a SONY DAV-HDx275 surround system. The installation of the speakers utilizing the templates and the built-in locking system was the simplest system I have ever installed. Also, with the adjustable tweeters, I was able to postion them towards my listening area. The sound from these speakers are great.

Great Value, Great Sound

I recently purchased a new Samsung 50" plasma tv as an upgrade from our old 52" projection screen unit. I soon realized to get the whole HD experience, I would need a blu-ray player and a new HD receiver. I ended up buying new HT speakers as well. The new setup consists of Polk RC60i's for the rear surround, Polk Monitor 40's for the front and a Polk CSII for the center. I re-used our existing Polk 100 watt PSW 350 sub. This all runs through a Denon AVR 1909 receiver with 90 watts per channel. Our family room is 24x22 with 8' ceilings.
The RC60i's as a surround speaker sound awesome. Going from satellite surrounds to in-celing surrounds was night and day. I had already fished the wires (the hard part) so the rest of the install was super easy. They have good, tight bass response and the swivel tweeter lets you aim the highs to really tweak the imaging. The 6.5" size also blends well with our recessed light fixtures. I think they are a steal at this price per pair.
This all replaced a 5 year old Polk RM6600/PSW350 satellite system with a Kenwood 100 watt per channel (read over-rated) receiver. The difference in sound is incredible! The satellites were ok, but had trouble producing "full" sound. The larger drivers in the new speakers really deliver. Easily fills the room with a powerful sound. This is probably considered a budget HT system by most, but I am VERY pleased. Thank you Polk, Denon and Crutchfield.

The Polk Audio RC80i delivers even finer audio, thanks to a larger 8" woofer, a wider frequency response of 50-20,000 Hz, and increased sensitivity rated at 90 dB.
