Most popular placement, above the TV screen. CSi Series Center Speakers are magnetically shielded for safe placement near TV or video monitors. If you notice video distortion or discoloration, immediately move the speakers away from the video source and call Polk Audio Customer Service 800.377.7655 (US and Canada) or polkcs@polkaudio.com.

La ubicación más común es encima de la pantalla del televisor. Los altavoces centrales de la serie CSi tienen blindaje magnético para poder ubicarlos con seguridad cerca de monitores de televisión o de video. 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.

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.

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.

CSi25 specifications

The Polk Audio CSi25 is an impressive bookshelf speaker that is well-regarded among audio enthusiasts. Designed with an emphasis on performance, style, and versatility, the CSi25 packs a punch in sound quality while maintaining a sleek aesthetic that fits seamlessly into any room.

One of its standout features is the Dynamic Balance technology employed in the design of its driver. This innovation entails a specially formulated composite driver material that minimizes unwanted resonances, thereby producing a clearer and more accurate sound. The 5.25-inch driver provides robust midrange performance, ensuring that vocals and instruments are rendered with impressive detail.

An additional highlight of the CSi25 is its 1-inch silk dome tweeter, which significantly enhances high-frequency response. This component is engineered to deliver smooth, crisp treble tones without the harshness often associated with lesser tweeters. Together, these driver configurations allow the CSi25 to produce a balanced and immersive stereo experience, making it suitable for both music and home theater applications.

The CSi25 is also designed with efficiency in mind, featuring a nominal impedance of 8 ohms. This makes it compatible with a wide range of amplifiers and receivers, allowing users the flexibility to pair it with various audio components without compromising performance.

Another notable characteristic of the CSi25 is its aesthetic design. The speaker is available in a range of finishes, including cherry, black oak, and maple, allowing it to blend beautifully with any home decor. The sleek cabinet design minimizes distortion and enhances the overall sound quality, ensuring that it not only looks good but also performs well.

Polk Audio also incorporates a rear-firing bass port in the CSi25. This port design enhances the low-frequency response and provides deeper bass extension, improving overall sound dynamics. This means that whether you're listening to subtle acoustic tunes or action-packed movie soundtracks, the CSi25 manages to deliver a full-bodied sound that draws listeners into the experience.

Overall, the Polk Audio CSi25 is a speaker that combines advanced technology with elegant design. Its impressive sound quality, compatibility with a wide array of audio systems, and versatile design make it an exceptional choice for anyone looking to upgrade their audio setup.
