## Description

From the manufacturer Polk Audio RC60i Speaker RC80i In-Ceiling Speaker The RC80i isn’t just an in-ceiling speaker, it can be used in-wall as well. It is timbre-matched to the Polk Audio RTi Series but works well with a variety of speakers. User who have mixed and matched their home theater set up say they have not heard any major pairing issues. The RC80i is equipped with an 8-inch dynamic-balance, mineral filled polymer-composite cone and has a one 1-inch dynamic-balance, metalized soft dome tweeter with 15-degree-swivel mount. That means you can position the tweeter to the correct sweet spot in your listening room. Frequency With a frequency response of 35Hz – 20kHz the RC80i is sure to offer a fair amount of bass but you’ll still want a 12-inch or larger sub if you are looking for that rattling that will loosen your molars. The RC80i’s are constructed of moisture-resistant materials so they can be used in bathrooms, saunas, or out doors under some protection. Size and Fitting The speaker comes with template for cutting the correct size whole in your wall or ceiling. Everyone agrees these are very easy to install. But the grill is a little difficult to remove. User William C Belivins suggest this method instead of the paper clips that Polk Audio suggest. “There are four clamp-screws that need to be accessed from the front. Use these four screws to gently push the grill out from behind. Once you get the grill out a quarter-inch, you can peel it out the rest of the way from the front.” Sound Quality Smooth and clear mids. Clean, crisp, easy to listen to highs, and a good deep lower mid range. The RC80i’s appear to be very pleasing and easy to listen to. The RC80i will work well in medium to large rooms. If you are considering in-wall or in-ceiling speakers, with the RC80i overwhelming positive reviews, and their price. It will be hard to go wrong.

Review: Great sound - Easy to install, great sound with plenty of bass and clear sound
Review: Easy to fit and great bass response - These sound great! Very good bass response. Easy to fit. Also easy to pop back out to adjust if you need to.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these speakers have open backs?  Do they come with enclosures?**
A: This is actually a great question. As the others have said, the backs are open, which is typically not an issue when installing into a wall or ceiling. HOWEVER...if you install into a ceiling that has blown insulation above it (the loose cellulose kind, not the rolled fiberglass kind) then you WILL want to come up with your own way of keeping the loose insulation off the backs of the speaker. If you don't (as I didn't the first time I bought these) then over time the quality and volume of the sound will lessen because of the insulation working into and pressing against the cones. I had to replace one set because of this problem.

**Q: How many watts can these speakers handle?**
A: 20-100 watts RMS

**Q: How much sound is transferred to the room above?  I'm installing in a basement ceiling below a bedroom.**
A: Depends on the construction of the house. I would Place a bat of fiberglass insulation behind the speaker if there is no insulation in the ceiling. This will reduce the transmission of sound upstairs , and improve the sound of the speaker in the room it's installed.

**Q: what is the difference between the 6.5 inch vs the 8 inch versions?**
A: The tweeters are exactly the same between the two. The 8" model has a larger woofer and therefore will provide  better bass reproduction (i.e., deeper low end bass). The reason for the different sizes is sometimes the spacing distances between the ceiling joist and wall studs will dictate which one you can use . If your wall studs or ceiling joist are on 16" centers then get the 8"...  if they are on 12" centers you'll have to settle for the 6.5". Hands down... if you have the room get the 8". Just FYI: The 8" version outsells the 6" version 2 to 1.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They work fine ! Great price , good value !
*by J***N on 22 June 2023*

This is an under rated speaker , it has good sound and tone , not tinny and descent bass and mid range , it all depends on the area that it is mounted into , insulation and other surrounding materials with impact on the sound quality! Also the grill covers can be adjusted without glue or silicone if you carefully bend out the area slightly that slots into the speaker itself, bend it ever so slightly in four or five spots ( outward) and slowly work the grill into the slot that holds the grill working it into place , this process snug fits the grill with falling out , simple and it works !
