Product Description
The RC6s gives you stereo imaging from a single speaker. The RC6s is a dual tweeter design combined with a dual voice coil driver, in a shallow fit speaker that's built for the ultimate "stealth" installs, even in places you'd never expect to get stereo sound. It's made to fit locations where a pair of speakers would be impractical, such as corners, hallways, or even shower stalls.

Polk Audio speakers are the real deal... July 22, 2008

So I have need for in wall speakers in 4 rooms...I go out and buy an inferior brand of speakers for cost savings for 1 room. The room sounded like total crap. I then go and invest in 2 pairs of the RCi60 and 1 pair of the RCi6S and they brought the rooms to life. These speakers have spectacular sound and depth. Specifically, the RCi6s surprised me with the quality of sound out of one speaker. I the RCi6s in my kitchen, which also has 10 foot ceilings and the speakers still ROCK the house!
They are also very discrete in the wall when you paint them.
All round 5/5...do not hesitate.
Great value for the $ April 9, 2008

I was looking for speakers to put in my suspended ceiling (basement). The finished area is about 48' long by 15' wide. I wanted the stereo sound in one unit to make the sound more uniform (also easier to run a single 4-wire cable). I installed 3 of these evenly spaced (right down the middle of the room) and it fills the area with sound. I don't think any ceiling speaker will knock your socks off with huge volume. But if you are looking for casual listening, these are great speakers. If going into a suspended ceiling you should get a "tile bridge" to help support them. I also used some inexpensive fiberglass insulation on the joists to help with bass, and keep sound from coming upstairs.
Very Satisfied February 5, 2008

I bought this without paying attention to the description (Single). I didn't realize this took a left and right signal. I am still very happy with the purchase and think it sounds great. I also tried bi-wiring it, which worked fine too. I didn't leave it this way, but wanted to see how it sounded.

This speaker is designed specifically for a situation where stereo sound is not optimal; for example, in the kitchen or dining room. By placing a left and right channel tweater, the sound is mixed in a single speaker. This does mean you have to run both the left and right channel wire to the speaker. The best use of this speaker is to have non-directional sound in each room rather than to blast your one stereo in order to hear it from every room.
The size of the woofer is, of course, going to limit the bass response. Heavy bass listeners should add a dedicated sub or at least consider in-wall speakers with larger woofers. The speaker does not come with on-speaker eq's. I recommend using an eq at the stereo base to balance the speaker in order to obtain full statisfaction of the sound. It initially was heavy in the highs (as expected when using two tweeters and only one small sub). Don't get me wrong, it's not hard to have a nice, balanced sound from the RC6's.
Over all I'm very happy with the quality and sound. It works great for parties, gatherings, and general listening when I don't feel like being tied down to a seat. The price vs. quality compares to that of many more expensive models. Of course, for serious listening (audiophile and/or home theater), just about every model by every company of in-ceiling/wall speakers obviously won't do.
