Appearance and Sound Quality:

The Polk audio CSiA6 speaker is perfectly suited for a large rooms and looks great with a big screen. It complements its grandeur and doesn’t look out of place. Its huge dual 6 1/2 –inch Dynamic Balance® midbass drivers and 1-inch Dynamic Balance dome tweeter will work their magic and deliver absolutely vibrant and coruscating sound. We strongly and vehemently urge you to pair Polk audio CSi A6 center channel with the larger tower or bookshelf speaker so that it is allowed to work at its full capacity and nothing holds it back.
The perceptive minds behind the design of this stunning speaker have taken into account all the conditions in which these speakers are to be placed, the unique angled top allows the CSiA6 to be inverted and placed beneath a TV.

These speakers come with an amazing kickstand assembly that provides rear support to numerous TV projections. The enclosure is highly elegant and robust, its proprietary curved 6-layer DAHLI design creates the optimal shear damping for a more unshakable, acoustically inert enclosure. This brilliantly designed setup also minimizes the cabinet resonances.

The spellbinding curved furniture-grade hardwood veneer cabinet finishes with sleek trim accents in black or cherry.
The computer-modeled anti-diffraction grilles further augment the beauty and also mitigate sonic interference to a remarkable extent. Everything is provided more for your amusement and entertainment, the dual binding posts allow and permit bi-amp or bi-wire connections for a most intoxicating and captivating high performance customized audio experience.

Performance and Polk audio’s patented features:

Klippel motor optimization in Polk audio CSiA6 center channel uses laser measurement technology to guarantee a smooth path while shifting the volume, this optimization is so much commendable that it provides a uniform performance at both the low and high volumes. You don’t need to be concerned while bumping up the volumes, in terms of hardware. The Polk audio CSiA6 center channel is stalwart and reliable although your own hardware i.e your ears might be damaged if you go to extremely high volumes. We’d therefore advise you to take precaution. Polk’s proprietary, patented Dynamic balance technology permits the engineers to completely get rid of distortion-inducing driver and system resonances, so that you only hear the pure and uninhibited sound. The RTiA Cascade Tapered crossover effaces the comb filtering and beaming which is prevalent to multi-driver speakers. PowerPort® bass venting is another one of our endearing features which smoothly transitions the air flow from the port into your listening area, eliminating the vexing turbulence and distortion, for more thrilling and invigorating deep bass. The CSiA6 provides you dual PowerPorts for augmenting the center channel realism. The designers of these fascinating speakers were well-aware of the problems which are commonly associated with them therefore they tried adamantly to solve them, the Patented Acoustic Resonance Control® (ARC) technology stifles cabinet resonance that would otherwise interfere with the extraordinary ,immaculate sound.
