The beefy big 8" woofer of the RC80i makes a big beastly impact, with the maximum amount of bass you’re likely to encounter from an in-ceiling speaker. The RC80i is perfect for areas requiring big, rich sound with good coverage, but with no room for traditional speaker clutter. Designed for superior wide dispersion, you’ll hear great sound no matter where you are in the room.

Easy One-Cut, Drop-In Installation

Puts built-in audio within reach, with Perfect Fit templates, a precision flange, and (available) pre-construction brackets; achieve secure, vibration-free efficiency with a simple turn of the patented Rotating Cam system.

With Infinite Baffle Tuning

RCi speakers utilize the “virtual enclosure” of your in-wall and in-ceiling space to enhance their bass response and smooth low frequency blending with the midrange.

Lightweight And Stiff Blue Polymer Cones

Deliver excellent damping and bass response.

Durable, Computer-Modeled

Injection-molded butyl rubber surrounds suppress unwanted cone resonances for a lifetime of reliable sound.

Aimable Swivel Tweeters

For greater accuracy and more realistic imaging. (All models except RC6s.)

Polk’s Proprietary, Patented Dynamic Balance

Technology allows our engineers to design out distortion-causing driver and system resonances, so you only hear the good sounds.

Klippel Motor Optimization

Uses laser measurement technology to ensure a smooth excursion path at either end of the volume spectrum for uniform performance at both low and high volumes.

Rustproof Stainless Steel Hardware

Durable butyl rubber surrounds and powder coated aluminum (in-ceiling) & painted steel (in-wall) grilles make RCi Series speakers suitable for high moisture areas like bathrooms, transitional spaces or even under eaves or in the ceiling of an enclosed porch. (RCi series are not suitable for exposed outdoor use. For outdoor speaker fun, use our Atrium® Series.)

Paintable Grilles

Let you build them in, and then forget all about them; RCi Series speakers practically disappear into any room.

RCi Series Speakers

Are timbre-matched to other Polk speakers to insure utterly seamless blending from speaker to speaker in systems that combine traditional and built-in speakers.
