Our take on the Polk Audio RC65i In-Wall Speakers (Pair)

The RC65i is a pair of 6.5-inch in-wall/in-ceiling speakers from Polk's round-component line. Each speaker uses a Dynamic Balance woofer and an aimable swivel tweeter, so you can point the highs toward the listening seat. Installation is a three-step drop-in with rotating cams that clamp the speaker to the drywall, and the grilles can be painted to match the wall. They are timbre-matched to other Polk speakers, which makes them easy to mix into a surround or whole-house system. Owners rate them highly for the sound they deliver for the money and for how simple they are to fit.

About the Polk Audio RC65i In-Wall Speakers (Pair)

The Polk Audio RC65i is a pair of in-wall speakers with a slim profile. They can be used as main speakers, as surrounds in a home theater, or throughout a home for whole-house audio. They fit in-wall or in-ceiling positions, and they work for stereo music or the left and right front or surround channels of a home theater.

Each speaker has a 6-1/2" woofer and a 3/4" swivel-mount tweeter. Dynamic Balance drivers and aimable tweeters give accurate imaging, bass response and direct high-frequency control in any listening position. The speakers are timbre-matched with other Polk Audio speakers for blending in a home theater setup.

Installation takes 3 steps: cut a hole, feed the wires through, and drop the speaker in. Rotating cams secure each speaker and keep it vibration-free, with no extra assembly. The white matte grilles are paintable, so they can match the room's decor. Pair the speakers with an amp or a subwoofer.

Questions and answers

Do the RC65i speakers need an amplifier?
Yes. They are passive speakers, so they need an amp or AV receiver to drive them. A subwoofer is optional but helps fill in the low end.
Can I use them in the ceiling as well as the wall?
Yes. Polk designed the RC65i for both in-wall and in-ceiling mounting, and the rotating cams clamp to either surface.
What size hole do they need?
They are built around a 6.5-inch woofer, so the cutout matches that driver size. Measure the template against your stud or joist spacing before cutting.
Can the grilles be painted?
Yes. The grilles are paintable so they can match your wall or ceiling. Apply thin coats so the perforations stay open.
Will they match other Polk speakers in a surround system?
Polk timbre-matches the RC65i to its other speakers, so they blend well as surrounds alongside Polk fronts and a center.
What is included with the pair?
You get two speakers with their grilles and mounting hardware. Speaker wire and an amplifier are not included.
