ENGLISH

USING 5-WAY BINDING POSTS

To connect wire to the binding post, unscrew the plastic hex nut on the binding post and insert the bare wire into the hole near the base of the binding post. Do not insert the insulated part of the wire into the hole as this will not give you a good connection. Twist the hex nut back down the binding post until it firmly meets the wire. Do not over-tighten (Figure 2).

AC POWER

The RT powered loudspeakers have a built-in power amplifier and must be plugged into

a standard household AC power source in order to properly operate. RT powered loud- speakers sold within North America are designed to be connected to 110-120 volt AC outlets (Figure 3).

EL USO DE POSTES DE CONEXIÓN DE CINCO POSICIONES

Para conectar el cable al poste de conexión, desenrosque parcialmente la tuerca hexagonal de plástico e inserte el alambre pelado en el orificio cerca de la base del poste. No inserte la parte aislada del cable ya que no obtendrá una conexión adecuada. Enrosque la tuerca de nuevo hasta que asegure el cable firmemente, pero sin apretarla excesivamente (Figura 2).

FUENTE DE ENERGÍA ELÉCTRICA DE CORRIENTE ALTERNA

Las bocinas RT de potencia contienen su pro- pio amplificador de potencia y por ende es necesario conectarlas a una fuente de energía eléctrica (enchufe ordinario de corriente alterna de la casa), para su correcta operación. Las bocinas RT de potencia vendi- das en América del Norte están diseñadas para ser conectadas a enchufes de corriente alterna de 110-120 voltios (Figura 3).

FRANÇAIS

UTILISATION DES BORNIERS “CINQ FAÇONS”

Pour connecter le fil au bornier, dévissez l’écrou en plastique du bornier et insérez le fil nu dans le trou à la base du bornier.

N’insérez pas la partie isolée du câble dans le trou car le contact ne se ferait pas. Visser l’écrou du bornier jusqu’à ce qu’il serre fermement le fil. Ne serrez pas trop (figure 2).

ALIMENTATION CA

Les enceintes amplifiées RT contiennent un amplificateur intégré et doivent être branchées à une prise de courant standard CA pour fonctionner correctement. Les enceintes RT vendues en Amérique du Nord sont conçues pour être branchées à une alimentation 110-120 volts CA (figure 3).

DEUTSCH

GEBRAUCH VON FÜNFER-

VERBINDUNGSBOLZEN

Um den Draht mit der Anschlussklemme zu verbinden, schrauben Sie bitte die Sechskantmutter aus Plastik vom Pol ab and schieben den nackten Draht in das Loch, das sich fast ganz unten an der Klemme befindet. Schieben Sie bitte nicht die Isolierung des Drahtes in das Loch, da Ihre Verbindung sonst nicht sehr gut ist. Schrauben Sie

die Sechskantmutter wieder auf die Anschlussklemme bis sie fest, aber nicht zu fest, mit dem Draht zusammentrifft (s. Abbildung 2).

WECHSELSTROM-ANSCHLUSS

Die aktiven Lautsprecher der RT Serie verfü- gen über integrierte Verstärker und müssen daher an eine 220 V-Steckdose angeschlossen werden. Die auf dem amerikanischen Markt erhältlichen Modelle kommen mit 110-120 Volt aus (s. Abbildung 3).

1000i, RT2000i specifications

Polk Audio has long been recognized for producing high-quality audio equipment, and the Polk Audio 1000i and RT2000i speakers exemplify the brand's commitment to performance and innovation. These models have become popular among audiophiles and casual listeners alike, thanks to their advanced features, impressive technology, and distinctive characteristics.

The Polk Audio 1000i is a floor-standing speaker that boasts a sleek design and an impressive soundstage. It features a unique tapered design that helps reduce distortion while enhancing clarity. The 1000i includes a 1-inch silk dome tweeter that delivers smooth high frequencies, along with dual composite woofers that provide deep, rich bass. The speaker is engineered to handle a wide frequency range, providing a balanced audio experience that is ideal for music and home theater applications.

Another remarkable feature of the 1000i is its dynamic balance technology, which helps eliminate unwanted resonances and enhances overall sound quality. This technology is designed to deliver more natural sound reproduction, allowing listeners to hear each instrument and vocal with greater fidelity. The 1000i’s frequency response ranges from 30Hz to 25kHz, making it capable of producing a full spectrum of sound, from deep lows to crisp highs.

The RT2000i, on the other hand, is designed as a more versatile option with bi-amplification capabilities. This means that users can connect multiple amplifiers to achieve even greater sound quality and power output. The RT2000i features a built-in powered subwoofer that provides exceptional bass performance, making it a formidable choice for those who prioritize low-end frequencies in their audio experience.

Similar to the 1000i, the RT2000i also incorporates Polk’s dynamic balance technology. Its 1-inch silk dome tweeter and dual 6.5-inch woofers ensure a wide soundstage and highly detailed audio reproduction. The incorporation of a patented Power Port technology in the RT2000i allows for enhanced bass response and reduced turbulence, resulting in cleaner, more defined bass performance.

Both the 1000i and RT2000i are built with sturdy cabinet construction that reduces unwanted vibrations, ensuring that the sound remains uncolored and true to the original recording.
