Design and Build

The RTi A9 cabinets feature a curved, asymmetric shape that adds strength and avoids the typical boxy look of many home loudspeakers. The real wood finish complements your furniture and room décor, available in black or cherry. The DAHLI cabinet design uses a 6-layer laminate with five viscous layers to create optimal shear damping, reducing panel resonances for a more natural sound.

Performance

Polk’s Dynamic Balance technology uses laser analysis to reduce or eliminate sound-colouring artefacts, while Klippel Optimization ensures excellent performance at both low and high volume levels. The sealed midrange section delivers the clearest, most articulate midrange in the RTi A series, making the RTi A9 ideal for both high-octane action movies and intimate music listening.

Premium Connections

High-quality gold-plated 5-way binding post inputs provide secure and reliable connections. The RTi A9 supports bi-wire and bi-amplification setups, avoiding cheap spring clips or plastic terminals.
