The RC6s gives you stereo imaging from a single speaker. The RC6s is a dual tweeter design combined with a dual voice coil driver, in a shallow fit speaker that's built for the ultimate "stealth" installs, even in places you'd never expect to get stereo sound. It's made to fit locations where a pair of speakers would be impractical, such as corners, hallways, or even shower stalls.

Great speaker with awesome bass response. Perfect for areas where you can't fit a pair of speakers to get stereo sound. Bathrooms,Saunas,Laundry rooms,etc. I use them often for whole house audio apllications and the sound fills a room very well and has a pretty decent stereo imaging sound for one speaker. Paintable,easy to install,affordable. Keep in mind during install it requires four speaker wires(positve/neg for driver and same for tweeter) so use a 4 conductor wire for an easy install.When installing in ceiling try to position toward center of the room to get more spacious sound coverage.

Polk Audio RC6s In-Ceiling Stereo Speaker (Single, White)
Just what the doctor ordered. Perfect for a small room such as a bathroom, or a walk in closet where 2 speakers just don't make sense.
Please note: this is a STEREO speaker (left & right channels in one housing).
The audio quality is great for what it is designed to do. It's hard to discern stereo sound from this as the the speakers are not spaced far enough apart. But in this application, the bathroom, is it really necessary? Is the work worth the reward? More important; the wife is very happy. She can hear the radio, CD player or the TV when she gets ready in the morning and is not all that concerned with left and right channels. Happy wife = Mission accomplished.
Installation of the speaker itself was easy, follow the advice of another review and have enough wire slack to reach the top of the step ladder. One of the nicer templates that I have used. I cut the hole with a sheetrock saw, and the speaker fit better than OJs glove. A nice, clean look to it when it's finished.

We recently moved to a new office and I bought 6 of these speakers to provide background music throughout the building. They were easy to install and I have each powered by a separate Pyle PTA2 Mini 2x40W Stereo Power Amplifier. (The amps have pre-amp level inputs and output so they can be daily chained back to a pre-amp or a single pre-amp level source such as an iPod or in my case, a Sirius radio receiver.) The sound quality is great and the combined cost for each amp-speaker unit was less than $125. Although they are usually played at low volume, they also sound great if I crank them up after hours. Would highly recommend these speakers for similar home or office applications.

I bought this to install in the basement we just finished. Mostly to play music during parties and also to hook into the tv if we have parties for the "big game" etc. so the sound can be broadcast though-out the entire basement. We pre-wired three speaker locations to cover the entire 1500 sq ft.
THE GOOD:
Very easy to install. Take the little card board template, draw your circle, drill a pilot hole, and cut it out. (I used a fine tooth saw-zaw blade by hand since we had already painted the ceiling and I didn't want it to chip/scuff the ceiling, but a jig saw would have probably done fine. Either way is ok, dry wall is easy to saw. On a ladder I used one hand to hold the speaker and the other to easily make the connections. The connecters are easy to work with one hand. I then just inserted into the ceiling, pulled the screw drive our of my pocket (don't forget to do this or you will be down the ladder with your speaker dangling from wire)... screwed in four screws that snap out and then down the little brackets that hold the speaker snug to the ceiling from inside the ceiling, and inserted the grill (which covers the speaker and the screws). Easy as can be.
Another point: circles are easier to install then rectangles. If you are considering buying rectangle speakers, consider how good you are and making things square, plumb, etc. And also consider that even if you are good at it, your drywall installers, even if they worked for a good builder, may not be. So you ceiling and/or wall may not be at right angles to each other. If you install in ceiling close to a wall, or in wall close to a ceiling, you may end up with a speaker that looks crooked one way or another. And even if the walls and ceiling are all straight, it's still hard to stand on a ladder, measure the how far each corner is to your nearest reference point, set the template etc. With circles, these problems go away.
Quick wiring tip:
1. When you do the initial wiring, make sure you leave enough slack so that the wire hangs and least three feet down lower then the ceiling. It make connecting the wire to the speaker much easier when standing on a ladder to not have to be making the connections over your head. You'd rather have it waist high. So leave enough slack, it easily tucks up into the ceiling when the speaker is installed.
THE BAD:
2. I mentioned that I wired for three speakers. I bought the "Polk Audio RC60i" Since they come in pairs, I wanted to buy a single 3rd speaker instead of buying a second pair and having one left over. So I made the mistake of buying this product, the very similar "Polk Audio RC6s" for my third speaker without reading enough of the description or reviews. Based on other descriptions, and the performance of the "Polk Audio RC60i" that I did get to work. this speaker probably works fine.
HOWEVER, it requires two sets of speaker wire, not one. I of course had one set of wire to each speaker location. I now know that this is both a left and right speaker all in one little package. So it didn't work for me. I ended up buying a second set of "Polk Audio RC60i", and it now works perfectly. So if you do the same, either run two sets of wire or just buy yourself a second set of "Polk Audio RC60i"... The set is not much more money then the single "Polk Audio RC6s" anyway.
I am rating this a five based upon looks, ease of installation, and the performance of the sister product "Polk Audio RC60i" that I have installed. I am not going to rate it down because I am a dope and didn't read enough of the description or reviews before buying.
