LC65F/X

Bipole/Dipole In-Wall Surround

A built-in surround speaker gives you more flexibility to plan your theater’s seating by removing the limitations of traditional loudspeakers. The LC65F/X is an in-wall surround speaker that performs exactly like a traditional speaker custom designed for surround sound work. Dual ring radiator tweeters in a selectable bipole/dipole array give you the option of clearly focused surround information, or a more ambient, enveloping soundscape. Build a stealth home theater system in a small to mid-sized room using the LC65F/X in conjunction with a front stage of LC65i speakers, and experience a completely seamless, utterly realistic sound system with big impact and wide dynamic range.

LC65F/X Features:

Surround-specific solid/diffuse modes: In "Solid" mode, all drivers and tweeters are in-phase, producing a solid, discrete sound-stage. In the "Diffuse" setting, the rear facing tweeter array is out of phase with the front facing array for a more diffuse, less localizable, surround-sound image. Use the setting that sounds best for your placement and application (and if you can’t decide, we can help!).

Paintable grilles let you build them in, and then forget all about them; LCi Series practically disappear into any room.

Enhanced, reengineered ring radiator tweeters extend top-end response for incredible details, with a 15° swivel housing for direct high frequency control and excellent imaging even in off-axis listening positions.

Our aerated polypropylene cone is the ideal balance of lightweight stiffness (for more efficient action with less distortion-causing flex) and superior damping properties, for spectacular midrange clarity and punchy bass.

Polk Audio’s proprietary, patented Dynamic Balance^® technology allows our engineers to design out distortion-causing driver and system resonances, so you only hear the good sounds.

Lightweight, rigid driver baskets constructed of specially engineered composite materials keep moving parts in rigid alignment and damp performance-robbing resonances for better performance in shallow space installs.

Easily accessible custom audio controls allow you to tweak your sound for optimum performance in any installation: Use the reflective room (tweeter) compensation switch to digitally compensate for harsh reflective surfaces, and the wall distance setting toggle to compensate for proximity to corners or adjacent walls.

PowerPort^® bass venting is Polk Audio’s patented design for smoothly transitioning the air flow from the port into your listening area, eliminating turbulence and distortion, for bigger, more efficient, deep bass impact.

Rustproof stainless steel hardware and powder coated aluminum grilles make LCi Series speakers suitable for high moisture areas like bathrooms, transitional spaces or even under eaves or in the ceiling of an enclosed porch. (LCi Series are not suitable for exposed outdoor use. For outdoor speaker fun, use our Atrium^® Series.)

LCi Series speakers are timbre-matched to Polk Audio LSi speakers to insure utterly seamless blending from speaker to speaker in systems that combine traditional and built-in speakers.

LCi Series speakers are packaged one-per-box, so you can use singles as front or rear center channels, or as additional-zone speakers anywhere.

Easy one-cut, drop-in installation puts built-in audio within reach, with Perfect Fit templates, a precision flange, and (available) pre-construction brackets; achieve secure, vibration-free efficiency with a simple turn of the patented Rotating Cam system.

All Polk Audio products are made using the best materials and the most advanced manufacturing techniques. They pass the industry’s most exhaustive quality tests, including drop testing, extreme signal response and UV & salt exposure testing. Polk Audio loudspeakers are built to perform for a lifetime.
