Polk RTi A3 - Best in Class for Bookshelf Speakers Introduction

Polk Rti A3 - Look and Sound just like new. Big Sound from a small cabinet is what these RTi A3 were designed to do. If what you are looking for is a bookshelf speaker designed for the discriminating listener, for the person who can hear the details that others cannot, for those who want the quality and sound of a tower speaker, but, want the sound coming from something smaller, the RTi A3 were designed for someone like you. Best in class for under a $1000 per pair. The Polk RTi A3s feature Polk's exclusive Dynamic Balance® drivers for smooth accurate response. The woofers and tweeters undergo careful laser testing to help identify and eliminate unwanted resonances that can hinder a speaker's performance. Polk's patented PowerPort® technology improves bass response without introducing distortion. * These are a 5 star rated speaker. Astounding positive reviews from such a small speaker. * Design ~ 2-driver, 2-way bass reflex, with front firing port and rear firing power port with one of a kind, eye catching design, made with real oak veneer wood exteriors * Crossover ~ 2nd-order electro-acoustic * Frequency Response ~ 50Hz - 26kHz (not that many people can hear sounds above 20kHz) * Low Frequency Extension ~ 45 Hz (DIN) meaning in a test chamber the microphone measures the response down to 50Hz , but, put them towards the corners of the room and the low end gets better, the port takes advantage of corners and walls to reflect the low frequencies coming from the port * High Frequency Driver ~ (1) - 1 in Dynamic Balance® silk/polymer tweeter * Mid/Bass Frequency Driver ~ (1) - 6-1/2" Dynamic Balance polymer composite woofer. * Low Frequency Extension ~ 35 Hz (DIN) meaning in a test chamber the microphone measures the response down to 40Hz, but, put them on stands and towards the corners of the room and the low end gets better, the port takes advantage of corners and walls to reflect the low frequencies coming from the port * Sensitivity Room ~ 89 dB. * Impedance ~ 8 ohms * Suitable Amplifier Power Range ~ 20 - 150 watts * Maximum Input Power ~ 125 watts RMS * Weight ~ 20 lbs. * Dimensions ~ 8-3/8 in Wide x 14-13/16 in High x 14-3/16 in Deep * Original factory warranty was 5yrs, which should tell you something about the build quality * I will combine purchases to save you some money. * I have been servicing other peoples speakers and equipment for over 25yrs, I inspect and test all my own equipment and drivers before listing them, If they need service work I try to ensure everything is working the way it is supposed to before it is sold to anyone. * * It can be packed safely for shipping to just about anywhere as I have shipped gear as far away as BC in Canada and down as far as Florida and across as far as Ohio in the states. * I have been servicing speakers and equipment for over 25yrs, I inspect and test all equipment and drivers before listing them, If they need service work I try to ensure everything is working the way it is supposed to before it is sold to anyone. * If I replace surrounds, I warranty them for 36months - where else can you get warranty on repairs? * If the crossovers need new Capacitors, I replace them. * (1) - If the ad is not marked SOLD it is still available. * (2) - Messages come to a computer and not cel-phone, so extend a bit of patience if I dont' respond right away. * (3). - I don't hold things for people who say they are coming to get it based on their word, so, don't get all bent out of shape when I sell something that YOU claim you are coming for, but, are not willing to send me a small deposit to show me you are serious. There are too many 'Kijijites' out there who make offers and claim they are coming 'Right Out' ,then climb back into the woodwork and disappear. Put your money where your mouth is. If you are serious about something and want me to hold it for you for a week or less then send me a deposit. If it is not like I claim it to be when you come to see it then I will refund your deposit. * (4). - Please remember that some brand new or seldom used older gear that has been sitting may work for years without troubles, or, it also may develop small troubles simply from lack of use. There is no warranty that comes with my gear no matter the condition unless I state it clearly in the ad. That being said if a piece of gear develops some troubles, give me a call and let me see if I can help you out. I like to think that I am a reasonable person within reason. * (5).- There is no cure for misuse and abuse or just plainly being a 'Dumbass'. If you are unsure about how something wires up or works Ask Questions!! There is nothing more frustrating that talking with someone who was too proud to ask for assistance, but, instead wires up something wrong, burns or blows it up then attempts to blame their own mistakes on someone else.
