The Polk Audio RC55i is a pair of rectangular in-wall speakers built around a 5 1/4-inch driver, rated 67 Hz to 20 kHz with 90 dB sensitivity and an 8-ohm load. That sensitivity and impedance make them easy to drive from an ordinary AV receiver, and the shallow rectangular baffle fits standard stud bays. They suit surround and background channels in a living room or a whole-house audio setup where floor space is tight. Against pricier in-wall lines they give up some bass depth and output, but they are a simple, forgiving choice for filling a room with sound.
