PLACEMENT OPTIONS

Polk Audio RCi Series In-Wall Loudspeakers give you nearly endless placement options. But remember that placement choice for your in-wall speakers bears careful consideration, as installa- tion requires that you cut a hole in your wall!

Fill a room with sound by installing in-wall speakers in nearly any wall or ceiling location [figure 1]. Polk RCi Series In-Wall Loudspeakers have a wide dispersion pattern and aimable tweeters that allow you to focus their sound.

ADJUSTING THE TWEETER

Aiming the tweeter toward your listening position im-proves imaging and detail. When using RCi Series In-Wall Loudspeakers as front/main home theater speakers [figure 2], aim the tweeter toward your listening position. For rear/surround speakers installed in walls or ceilings [figure 3], aim the tweeter toward the nearest reflecting surface (an adjacent wall or ceiling) for a more diffuse sound field (if you so desire; for more direct sound, aim the tweeters at your listening position).

OPTIONS D’INSTALLATION

Les haut-parleurs encastrables « In-Wall » RCi Series de Polk Audio s’installent à peu près n’importe où. Vous devrez cepen- dant choisir l’emplacement de vos haut-parleurs « In-Wall » avec soin puisque vous devrez pratiquer des embrasures dans le mur ou dans le plafond pour les installer [figure 1]. Grâce à leur grande dispersion et à leurs tweeters orientables, qui vous per- mettent de diriger les aigus selon l'acoustique de votre pièce, les hautparleurs RCi Series « In-Wall » empliront votre pièce de son de haute qualité.

AJUSTEMENT DE L’ORIENTATION DES TWEETERS

Pour améliorer l’imagerie et le détail, vous pouvez orienter les tweeters vers votre position d’écoute. Lorsque vous utilisez des haut-parleurs RCi Series « In-Wall » pour les canaux stéréo- phoniques ou avant de cinéma maison [figure 2], orientez les tweeters vers votre position d’écoute. Lorsque les haut-parleurs sont installés dans le mur ou dans le plafond pour les canaux arrières ou ambiophoniques, si vous désirez un son plus diffus orientez les tweeters vers la surface réfléchissante la plus proche (mur ou plafond adjacent) ; si vous désirez un son plus direction- nel, orientez les tweeters vers votre position d’écoute.
