Great speaker for the price! April 22, 2007

I purchased a set of Polk RTi4 to use with a Sonos ZP100 in my family room. I was looking for a speaker that would not be too large but still provide clean, accurate sound. So far I have been very impressed with the speakers, especially considering the sub-$300 price!
The RTi4 has handled everything I have thrown at them, rock, R&B, country, classical, etc. They only fall short on the very deepest notes. If you are a big rap fan (not me) or are using them in a home theater setting then I strongly recommend adding a subwoofer. However, if you aren't that concerned about really "feeling the bass" then you will probably be very satisfied with these speakers.
Great sound in a small package December 7, 2005

We just bought these speakers to replace a pair of ancient B&O S45s which had finally bought the farm. We went to Sound Advice and listened to 4 different speakers and found that the RTi4s had both the clearest sound and the best midrange differentiation of all 4 speakers in our price range. A bit weak on the bass side, but for $220 including tax, well worth the price
 Nice speakers, nice price! February 3, 2006

I put these together with a Harman Kardon HK 3480 receiver and got crisp sound quality with surprisingly punchy bass. I am going to add a Yamaha 8" subwoofer to give me a little extra oomph for rap music and movie sound effects, but that is more of an indulgence than a necessity. The wall mount brackets on the back made wall installation super easy as well. I am very pleased with these speakers, very good sound for the price.

I've been using a pair of these as my main sound system, driven from my computer and a Sonic Impact Super T-Amp, alternatively a turntable, and I'm very satisfied with the sound of this system. The sound is exceptionally clean; I didn't notice the muddy sound I had been living with until I tried these out. The clarity of listening to a clean vinyl record played through this system is remarkable, and sound output from the computer is very good as well, though noticeably less clean.
Sonically, this setup doesn't punch with much bass, but there's enough power otherwise to make the experience, especially when sitting at the computer (a subwoofer could probably be added easily enough). The level of detail you start to hear is astounding, though you'll start to dislike low-bitrate digital audio very quickly.
At any rate, this is a fine way to turn a computer into your main music center in a small space: a simple, inexpensive amplifier, and a pair of high-efficiency bookshelf speakers.
Excellent August 25, 2008
