La ubicación más común es encima de la pantalla del televisor.

Si nota que hay distorsión o descoloración de la imagen, aleje inmediatamente los altavoces de la fuente de video y comuníquese con el servicio al cliente de Polk Audio: 410-358-3600.

Disposition la plus courante, au-dessus de l’écran. Les enceintes de la série CSi sont blindées magnétiquement et peuvent être disposées à proximité d’une télé ou d’un moniteur vidéo. Si vous percevez de la distorsion ou de la décoloration vidéo, éloignez immédiatement les enceintes de l’écran et communiquez avec le service à la clientèle de Polk: 410-358-3600.

Häufigste Platzierung – über dem Fernsehbildschirm. CSi-Mittenlautsprecher sind für eine Platzierung in der Nähe von Fernsehgeräten oder Videomonitoren magnetisch abgeschirmt. Wenn Sie eine Verzerrung oder Verfärbung des Videobildes bemerken, sind die Lautsprecher umgehend von der Videoquelle

zu entfernen. Setzen Sie sich in diesem Fall mit dem Kundendienst von Polk Audio in Verbindung:

410-358-3600.

I diffusori acustici per canale centrale della linea CSi hanno altoparlanti con magneti schermati e si possono avvic- inare tranquillamente a televisori e monitor: la disposizione più diffusa è quella sopra al televisore. Se notate immagini distorte o alterazioni dei colori, allontanateli subito dal televisore e contattate il nostro Client Care Center: 410-358-3600 o polkcs@polkaudio.com.

CSi specifications

Polk Audio is a name synonymous with high-quality audio products, and the CSi series of speakers exemplifies this legacy. The CSi series, particularly the CSi A6 and CSi A4 models, has garnered attention for their outstanding sound quality, elegant design, and compelling price point. At the heart of the CSi series is a commitment to delivering immersive audio experiences, whether for music or home theater applications.

One of the primary features of the CSi speakers is their dynamic balance design. This technology is essential for minimizing distortion and maximizing clarity across a wide range of frequencies. The focused sound dispersion enables users to enjoy a rich listening experience from various angles, making them an excellent choice for large living rooms or home theater setups.

The CSi speakers also utilize high-performance drivers. Equipped with a 1-inch silk dome tweeter, these speakers provide smooth high-frequency response and detailed sound reproduction. The 5.25-inch bi-laminate composite driver ensures deep mid-bass response, delivering a fuller sound that can resonate even in larger spaces. This combination of drivers allows the CSi series to handle everything from subtle orchestral notes to powerful movie soundtracks with remarkable ease.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the Polk Audio CSi series is their robust build quality. The cabinets are constructed from high-quality MDF (medium-density fiberboard), which not only contributes to the aesthetic appeal but also enhances the speaker’s acoustic performance by minimizing cabinet resonance. The finish is often available in traditional wood veneer or sleek black, allowing homeowners to choose an option that best fits their décor.

Polk Audio also invests in advanced technologies to improve the listening experience. The CSi series employs their proprietary Power Port technology, which extends the low-frequency response and improves overall efficiency. This technology allows the speakers to produce deeper bass and enhances their overall performance even at lower volumes.

For ease of integration, the CSi speakers feature dual binding posts, compatible with a variety of speaker cables and setups. This allows users to connect to multiple amplifiers or even bi-wire for improved sound fidelity.

In summary, the Polk Audio CSi series stands out due to its innovative design, high-quality materials, and advanced audio technologies. Whether you’re an audiophile seeking pristine sound reproduction or a movie buff looking to enhance your home theater, the CSi series of speakers offers a versatile and high-performance solution that consistently delivers on audio excellence. With its combination of features and affordable pricing, the Polk Audio CSi series continues to be a popular choice for sound enthusiasts everywhere.
