PLACEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR RTi SERIES FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKERS
To get the most realistic stereo image and lifelike sound, place the speakers so that an equilateral
triangle is created between the speakers and your favorite listening position [figure 1]. Your RTi
Series Loudspeakers are magnetically shielded for safe placement near your TV or video monitor.
If you notice video distortion or discoloration, immediately move the speakers away from the TV
and call Polk Audio Customer Service 800-377-7655 (US and Canada) or [email protected].
If your room arrangement forces you to place the speakers farther apart than the distance from
which you are listening, angle the speakers toward the middle in order to support a more solid
center image. Rubber feet and adjustable carpet spikes are included to provide stability on any
type of floor. To install them, lay the speaker carefully on its side and screw in the spikes as far as
they will go into the threaded inserts in the base of the speaker. For wood or tile floors, slip a
rubber foot over each spike. For carpeted floors, use bare spikes [figure 2]. You will achieve
optimum performance when the speaker is level and stable in all directions.
POLK AUDIO—A PASSION FOR SOUND
Thank you for purchasing this Polk Audio loudspeaker. Since its start in 1972, Polk Audio has been dedicated to audio
products that emphasize superior sound and build quality, as well as an ever-evolving standard for performance. It’s our
mission to provide these great products at a reasonable price for the enjoyment of people like you, who love good sound.
Our thirty years of R&D, resulting in over 45 worldwide patents for loudspeaker technology and innovation, has solidi-
fied our reputation as “The Speaker Specialists,” and demonstrated that for the people here at Polk Audio, building
speakers is not just a job; it’s a passion. Welcome to the Polk Audio family!
CONNECTION OPTIONS FOR
RTi SERIES FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKERS
Follow the hookup directions included with your receiver. Strip 1/2 inch (12.7mm) of insulation
from each of the two conductors of the speaker wire to expose the bare metal and twist each of the
individual conductors into single unfrayed strands. Note that one of the terminals on the rear of
each speaker is red (+) and the other is black (-). Make certain that you connect the wire from the
red (+) terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the red (+) terminal on your speaker and the wire
from the black (-) terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the black (-) terminal on your speaker.
Most wire has some indicator (such as color-coding, ribbing or writing) on one of the two
conductors to help you maintain consistency.
To connect wire to the binding post [figure 3], unscrew the hex nut 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.
To Use Banana Plugs (US Only): Unscrew the binding post lug nuts completely to expose the
binding post plugs (plastic plugs inserted into the binding posts). Carefully pry out the binding post
plugs to expose banana plug holes. Screw the lug nuts back on the binding posts and insert banana
plugs. (This is for US owners only.)
HOOK UP OPTION 1 [figure 4] is recommended for most systems. Make sure the flat metal
jumper strips are tightly secured to both sets of binding posts.
HOOK UP OPTION 2 [figure 5] is recommend for use with a receivers or preamp/processors
with L & R preamp outputs. For this connection, remove the flat metal jumper strips. Connect
the top set of binding posts to the speaker outputs of your amp or receiver, If your pre-amp,
processor, amplifier or receiver has a spare set of front left and right pre-outputs, connect them
to the subwoofer inputs on the back of the speakers. If your electronics has a single set of pre-
outputs and they are being used to deliver signal to an amplifier, use “Y” cables.
HOOK UP OPTION 3 [figure 6] is recommended for systems with receivers or preamp/pro-
cessors with unfiltered
subwoofer (LFE) outputs only. (To find out if your subwoofer output jack is
unfiltered, please see your receiver/preamp/processor’s owner’s manual.) For this connection,
remove the flat metal jumper strips. Connect the line level inputs on the back of the loudspeaker to
the subwoofer output(s) of your pre-amp, processor, amplifier or receiver. If you only have one
subwoofer output jack, run a cable to the subwoofer line level input of one speaker and another
cable from the line level output of that speaker to the line level input of the other speaker.
If you are not sure about the nature of your subwoofer output jack, use either hookup option 1 or
hookup option 2.

SETTING THE VOLUME
Volume level for the built-in subwoofer is adjusted using the volume control knob located on the
rear plate of the amplifier [figure 7]. Set this control by ear using a wide variety of music and
movie sources.
SAFE LIMITS OF OPERATION
Your Polk loudspeakers are made with the highest quality materials for years of trouble-free
performance. However, damage to loudspeakers can occur when an amplifier, regardless of its
wattage, is made to play at higher listening levels than its power can clearly produce (usually
beyond the “1 to 2 o'clock” position on the volume control). This results in very high levels of
audible distortion, originating in the amplifier, that can add a harsh, gritty sound to music.
Contrary to popular belief, a speaker is more likely to be damaged by trying to get too much
volume from a low-powered amp or receiver than from a high powered one.
AC POWER
This RTi powered loudspeaker has a built-in power amplifier and must be plugged into a
standard household AC power source in order to operate properly.
The power switch on the rear amp plate [figure 7] has two positions, “Off” and “Auto,” and a
small LED light. The LED will glow green at all times that the powered loudspeaker is plugged
in (even if the speaker is set to “Off”). We meant it that way.
To play, set the switch in the “Auto” position. Set to the “Auto” position, the amplifier will auto-
matically turn on as soon as the speaker senses a signal coming from your pre-amp, integrated
amp or receiver. It will automatically turn off several minutes after signals cease to be sent
by your pre-amp, integrated amp or receiver. The LED will glow green at all times.
TAKING CARE OF YOUR
RTi SERIES FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKERS
Avoid harsh detergents and cleaning fluids [figure 8]. Clean and dust the veneer with a damp
cloth only. Do not use furniture polish on the veneer. Carefully vacuum the grilles to remove dust.
