Enjoy engaging sound from these carefully crafted bookshelf speakers
Crisp classical music — check. Complex and layered jazz — got it. High-energy rock, vibrant R&B, lifelike country — no problem! That's because the Polk LSi9s are a part of the critically acclaimed LSi series — a line of speakers that's surprised audio reviewers and audiophiles alike with superb design and powerful, true-to-life sound reproduction. The LSi9 bookshelf speakers are a marvelous way to enjoy incredibly open, beautifully full, and above all, natural sound from a compact cabinet. After all, not everyone who loves great audio has the space (or budget) needed to fill a room with tower speakers.
Clear highs and smooth mids
Polk's Ring Radiator tweeter produces crystal-clear highs.
From the 1" Ring Radiator tweeter you'll get the crystalline, transparent highs that give precision to music and home theater. Careful cabinet design and dual 5-1/4" drivers round out lower-end sound very nicely. Other innovations — an anti-diffraction grille for spacious, accurate imaging, ARC Ports for controlling cabinet resonances, and a Power Port for reinforcing bass — team up to bring you a deep, realistic soundstage. A Soundstage! review of April 2002 noted of the LSi9, "Both [its midrange and bass] were full — impressively full for such a small speaker — and smooth. . . . Not only is it an exceedingly refined, first-class performer, it has specific sound qualities that make it stand out in its price class."

Great for home theater or stereo music setups
With this extraordinary aptitude for rendering stereo music with stunning precision, the LSi9 will shine in a multichannel home theater setup as well. Use an LSi9 pair as front left and right speakers in a small setup, or surrounds in a large one. 2 pairs of 5-way, gold-plated binding post terminals let you biwire or biamp your speakers.
Recommended center channel speaker: Polk LSiC.
Recommended surround speakers: Polk LSi7, LSi9 or LSiFX.
