PLACEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR RTi 28 & RTi 38 BOOKSHELF LOUDSPEAKERS
The RTi Series Bookshelf Loudspeakers were designed to provide excellent performance on a bookshelf, in a wall unit or placed on a floor stand (available from your Polk Audio retailer, or http://shop.polkaudio.com/). 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]. If you must 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. If you are using your RTi Series Bookshelf Loudspeakers as rear channels in a home theater system, they should be placed on the rear or side walls, slightly above (and, on the side walls behind) the listening position [figures 2a & 2b].
PLACEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR RTi70 FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER
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]. 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 3]. You will achieve optimum performance when the speaker is level and stable in all directions.
