Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Polk Audio RTi4 High Performance Bookshelf/On-Wall Speakers (Pair, Black)

Customer Review: Fantastic little speaker at a great price!
Summary: 5 Stars

Polk's RTi4 is a fantastic little bookshelf speaker. I now own 3 pair of these around my house, and I'm continually floored how wonderful they sound. I'm a bit of an audio snob, but I'm on a budget and simply can't afford the super-high-end audio equipment - and, frankly, these sound pretty darn close at a fraction of the price and size. I'm fairly picky with how my recorded music sounds, and these speakers (combined with a mid-range very clean Harman Kardon receiver/amp) sound fantastic.

One word of caution - if you have serious flaws in other audio equipment or your recordings, you won't see the WOW factor of these speakers (for example, I have my iPod set to "lossless compression", but my wife does not. When we're playing my iPod, I constantly say "wow!". My wife's (with standard compression) sounds good, but I don't say "wow".The same is true of another lower-end receiver I've hooked to these speakers - the lack of high end details due to this poorer quality receiver/amplifier come through loud and clear.

But - if you have even reasonable equipment, and you care about natural full range sound with very very clear highs, and not a hint of harshness, then these speakers will probably suite you well. They don't have quite the low-end punch that other larger speakers can pack. But, for my purposes, I think they sound absolutely fantastic.

(I usually listen to jazz, modern rock, classic rock).
