The tweeters are about 16 gauge and the woofers are about 12-14. I can't be sure. The tweeter wire is also about 18" longer. They're amped on the same channels, with the speaker wires twisted...

I hope I don't derail this thread, but I wonder what people think of simple bi-wiring. I have a pair of RTi8s that I just bought and thought they sounded great in normal config. I just bi-wired...
Well, I kinda let this thread go cold--sorry about that. After dane's post I started bidding on some cherry RTi8s. I finally won a bid on 11/01 for $200 plus shipping. The $20 difference that...
Okay, I'm thinking about splurging a little dough on some floor-standers. I've asked for opinions already about other Polk comparisons, but now I'm trying to decide between the RTi A5 and the older...
Thanks for the suggestions. I like the WD TV idea. I was originally thinking of something like the Lacie Lacinema or maybe the Iomega Screenplay or something like the TVisto. I kind of like the...
I'm interested in getting a multimedia hard drive (now that I know such things exist), but don't know where to begin. I basically just want it for music at this point, and would like to not need a...
Hey! I have a Yamaha 2-channel receiver rated at 65W, though I feel it has more power than my old JVC 100W amp. Anyway, I currently use it for a pair of RTi 4s (smallest bookshelf in that line), and...
I just bought a new house, a Bungalow in NW Denver. The living room area is quite cozy, and I do not want to have a TV. However, I do want to have good audio. I'm thinking now that I might want to...
This makes me very happy. I am intrigued by all the buzz here about the SDAs. But I typically ldon't isten to music loud enough to get the full effect, I'm afraid. On top of that, I don't have the...
Do let us know!
Thanks jawhog. I really want Cherry, so I'll keep waiting. Thanks for the welcome danz.
So far I have a pair of Rti4s that I bought from another forum member. I am running them with a 2-channel Yamaha receiver that only has about 60wpc. I really like this setup for now, but as I think...
Thanks leroyjr1. I meant "below" when I said "sub". I'm still talking about main speakers for music.
Okay, wow! Already some interesting responses. Thanks for your input!
I don't know that I'll ever get my hands on some SDAs. As for LSis, I fear that they represent a level of expenditure (and...
I am wondering what people think is the best Polk speaker line for music. From what I understand, many here think the (discontinued) Monitor line sounds better than the RTiA line, when comparing...
David,
Thank you for letting me audition these beauties! (I had the privilege of hearing them a couple of weeks ago when I bought a pair of RTi4s from David--Thanks again for those, I love 'em). ...
As I mentioned in another post, I recently bought a pair of RTi4s (thanks David). When I pulled them out of the box, my finger accidentally pressed against the tweeter. I felt it go in slightly, as...
I'm interested in buying a pair of lightly used RTi A1s in cherry. I don't want to pay full price, and I haven't seen em come up on Polk's ebay site. Anyone have some you want to part with?
Okay, I'm curious about the 30s, but not curious enough I guess. I'm totally leaning toward the A1s now, after the feedback in this thread. Maybe others think they're "bright" but I definitely like...
Thanks Erik,
I had a 5.1 surround system once (all Paradigm), and didn't like it--I was always too fussy with it and never simply enjoyed it. I mainly listen to music and need some tunes upstairs. ...
Thanks so much for the advice, everyone. I am using a small Yamaha for the Rti4s (75 Watts, stereo only), plus a PSW111. That setup will eventually go in an 11 X 11 room for cozy entertaining. The...
I just bought a pair of Rti4s from a fellow Polkie on Craigslist. I love 'em. In fact, I like them so much I'd consider myself a Polk convert.
I'm thinking I'd like another pair of Polks for...
Maybe you should talk nicer to it!
Well, I just spent a couple of hours fiddling with it and got the back off. For the record, you only need to unscrew the 10 big screws and none of the smaller ones. I used a puddy knife to pop the...
Thanks bevo. I tried it with the CD player directly into the line in and I still heard the buzzing. I called Polk CS and the guy told me to take out the amplifier and send it to the factory for...
