Polk FXi5 Surround Speakers

Polk’s FXi5 dipole/bipole speakers are the surround speakers for the home theater connoisseur. These cleverly designed speakers use 45° angled driver arrays for an ideal mix of direct and indirect sound — the resulting wraparound audio will fully immerse you in movie action. Taking advantage of the latest advances in Polk’s Dynamic Balance® drivers, the FXi5 features a 1″ silk/polymer dome tweeter and 6-1/2″ woofer mounted on one baffle, and a second matching tweeter on the other. You’ll hear every surround effect in vivid detail.

A dipole/bipole switch changes the phase relationship between driver arrays for lots of placement flexibility. Depending on your setup, you can have the separate tweeter firing in phase with the other drivers (bipole), or out of phase (dipole). The bipole setting is great for speakers placed behind your listening position, and provides clear, directional sound, while dipole usage is ideal for placement to the side of your listening position and results in a more diffuse soundfield. Also includes a keyhole slot for wall-mounting. Voice-matched to Polk’s RTi tower and bookshelf speakers and CSi center channel speakers.
