Polk Audio TSi Series Portable Speaker User Manual


 
TSi SERIES
The TSi Series raises the standard for great sounding
speakers that also offer incomparable value. Comprised
of three tower designs, two bookshelf and two matching
center channels, TSi features a contemporary look
that was inspired by our top-of-the-line audiophile LSi
Series and designed to work with today’s most stylish
televisions and electronic components. TSi offers
entry-level component speaker pricing combined with
renowned Polk Audio
®
performance. These are speakers
that produce sound that’s open, spacious and clear, even
when driven by modestly-powered amplifiers and receivers.
TSi 500
1" (25mm) bilaminate silk/polymer composite
Dynamic Balance
®
dome tweeter with powerful
neodymium magnet structure delivers clear and
detailed high frequency response for realistic
reproduction of vocals and instruments.
6 1/2" (165mm) Dynamic Balance bilaminate
organic fiber drivers are lightweight and stiff
with good damping for high efficiency, excellent
bass and lower distortion.
Multiple small-diameter driver design delivers
a more open, “box-less,” three-dimensional sound.
Critically-tuned floor-firing port minimizes port
noise (“chuffing”) for good low frequency extension,
resulting in natural, full-bodied sound with rich
bass, regardless of room placement.
High-gloss piano finish complements the latest
trends in flat screen TVs.
ANTI-RESONANT ENCLOSURE
Cabinet resonance can ruin the sound of an otherwise well-designed speaker. You don’t
want to hear your speaker cabinets humming along with the music, you want to hear the
uncolored sound launched by the drivers and tweeters. We take special pains to make sure
that Polk speaker cabinets are resonance-free. All wood cabinet Polk Audio loudspeakers
are constructed of low-resonance MDF instead of the cheaper and more resonant particle
board used by many competitive speaker brands. See more about Anti-Resonant Enclosure
