Polk AM5575-A RTi A5 Floorstanding Speaker - Black

Product Description

Innovative design the RTI A5 features the latest generation of dynamic balance polymer composite drivers for smooth wide–range response with low distortion. The RTI A5 uses two long–throw mid–woofers combined with power port to deliver deep, high–impacdsxat bass with speed and accuracy. All–mdf construction all–mdf construction and asymmetric cabinet design cabinet resonance can ruin the sound of an otherwise well–designed speaker. You don't want to hear your speaker cabinets humming along with the music, you want to hear the uncolored sound launched by the drivers and tweeters. We take special pains to make sure that Polk speaker cabinets are resonance–free. Our new RTI a Series loudspeakers employ an asymmetric design composed of a six–layer laminate, the process for which was specifically developed for Polk, and which controls resonance and increases cabinet rigidty. At a glance 1" Silk/polymer dome tweeter delivers smooth response and better detail. Power port bass Venting for superior clean, low distortion bass that you can really feel.Power port vastly reduces chuffing or port Noise and provides deeper, more powerful, lower distortion bass than could be realized with conventional ported or sealed designs of comparable size. Magnetic shielding for safe placement near video sources. Mylar bypass capacitors in the crossovers extend high frequency response and improve detail and transparency. Neodymium magnet, low–viscosity ferro–fluid cooling, and a heat sink on the back of the magnet, create better power handling and reliability. Butyl rubber Surrounds for high performance durability acoustically Inert stamped driver baskets.

Manufacturer's Description

Can't quite fit the RTi A9? The RTi A5 is the most compact tower speaker in the RTi A series. It still packs a punch with two 6.5" midbass drivers and costs much less than the larger siblings.

The cabinets are specially made for both great looks and sound. The real wood finish is available in black or cherry, matching your furniture and room décor. A curved, teardrop, asymmetric shape adds strength as it avoids the typical "box" look of many other home loudspeakers. The process was specifically developed for Polk. Their elegant styling aside, creating curved cabinets not only results in a stronger, more rigid and acoustically inert enclosure, but the curved walls also produce less audible coloration from panel resonances.

High-quality, Gold plated 5-way Binding Post Inputs ensure snug connections every time. Tower and bookshelf models feature bi-wire and bi-amplification capability. We don't use cheap spring clips or plastic terminals with RTi A series speakers!

RTi A speakers have Damped Asymmetric Hex Laminate Isolation (DAHLI) cabinet design for clean, accurate sound. The asymmetric design is made from a 6-layer laminate with 5 viscous layers to create the optimal shear damping (OSD) system and one real wood top layer for a beautiful finish.

Like all high quality Polk speakers, the silk dome tweeters and bicarbonate drivers in all RTi A series speakers are both Dynamic Balance and Klippel Optimized. Klippel Optimization ensures the speaker will perform well at both low and high volumes levels.

RTi A series you can piece together your matching set, whether it's a basic 2 channel system to a full blown 7.1 configuration. Choose your own components, work with your dealer, or pick one of our prepackaged systems.
