Owner’s Manual LCi SERIES LC60i LC80i LC65i LC265i High Performance In-Wall Speakers Haut-parleurs Haute Performance encastrables «In Wall»
LCi SERIES FEATURES: CARACTERISTIQUES DE LA SERIE LCi • Foamed Polypropylene Dynamic Balance Cones: ultra stiff and yet surprisingly lightweight—20% lighter than conventional polypropylene and 35% lighter than aluminum cones for spectacular midrange clarity, punchy bass and high efficiency. ® • 15° swivel Ring Radiator tweeters (the same tweeters used in the LSi Series) for smooth, extended highs with incredible accuracy and astonishing detail; excellent imaging even for off-axis listening positions.
PLACEMENT OPTIONS OPTIONS DE PLACEMENT Polk Audio LCi Series In-Wall Loudspeakers give you nearly endless placement options. But remember that placement choice for your in-wall speakers bears careful consideration, as installation requires that you cut a hole in your wall or ceiling! Les haut-parleurs encastrables de la Série LCi vous permettent des options de placement presqu’illimitées.
PERFORMANCE ENCLOSURES «CAISSONS PERFORMANCE» Are available for all models. These are engineered enclosures that mount in the wall or ceiling to maximize the bass and midrange performance of your LCi Speakers. They are typically installed prior to drywalling in new construction, but can be retrofitted if desired.
MAKING ADJUSTMENTS AJUSTEMENTS The LCi Series features technology that can tailor the sound for performance in difficult or unusual placement situtations. La Série LCi est dotée d’une technologie qui vous permet d’ajuster la configuration électro-acoustique des haut-parleurs lorsqu'ils sont installés dans des endroits particuliers ou difficiles.
LC80I & LC60I MODEL ADJUSTMENTS: Area Targeting Round LCi models feature a swiveling Ring Radiator Tweeter speaker for better directionality. The “sweet spot” is within a 30º cone of sound coming from the aimed speaker. The round model LCi Loudspeakers feature an innovative Area Targeting Switch. Engaging this function “expands” the area of high frequency response, improving off–axis imaging and filling the room with well-balanced, high performance sound.

INSTALLATION INSTALLATION Out of the box and into the wall, that’s how easy it is to install Polk LCi Series In-Wall Loudspeakers. L’installation des haut-parleurs Polk LCi Series «In-Wall» est très facile, littéralement «de la boîte au mur». If you intend to do the installation yourself we recommend that you possess some skill in the proper use of hand and power tools.
FOLLOW THESE EASY STEPS: SUIVEZ CES SIMPLES ETAPES: • Make sure the material into which you plan to mount the speakers (plaster, drywall, paneling, stone, etc.) can support the weight of the speakers (see specification page for the weight of your model). • Assurez-vous que le matériau dans lequel vous comptez installer vos haut-parleurs (plâtre, placoplâtre, lambris, pierre, etc.) peut supporter le poids des haut-parleurs (voir la fiche technique pour le poids du modèle de vos haut-parleurs).
• To install the speaker, first carefully remove the grille using a straightened paperclip or other pointed metal tool. Insert the point into one of the grille perforations near a corner and lift the grille free. Never use a knife or screwdriver to pry between the grille and the speaker frame. This will damage your speaker. • Pour installer le haut-parleur, retirez délicatement la grille à l’aide d’un trombone ou d’un outil pointu.
SAFETY FIRST SECURITE AVANT TOUT When installing your LCi Series In-Wall Loudspeakers, be aware of the weight of your particular model (see specification page for the weight of your model) and the sturdiness of the material into which you are installing the speaker. Also be aware of any concealed studs, electrical wiring or plumbing in the wall or ceiling into which you are installing the speakers.
