- RMS Power: 70 watts (The maximum amount of continuous power the device is able to handle.)
- Peak Power Handling: 100 watts (The maximum amount of power an electronic device, like a speaker, can handle without damage. This refers to short bursts of power, while root mean square (RMS) power handling indicates the amount of continuous power a device can sustain. Higher levels of distortion can also occur at peak power levels when the device is powered beyond its recommended usage.)
- Impedance: 8 ohms (Describes the resistance of an electric signal throughout the system. Devices with low impedance require less power to deliver optimal signals but are more at risk for damage from overloading. Higher impedance requires more power but is more protected from overload damage.)
- Minimum Frequency Response: 33 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
- Maximum Frequency Response: 27 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The maximum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
- Sensitivity: 89 decibels
- High Resolution Audio: true (Hear music the way musicians and sound technicians intended it to be heard. Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)

A: I installed in a acoustical drop ceiling. They only weigh 3lbs
Q: Would this be a good option for a center channel speaker over a wall mounted television?
A: In my opinion, No. You would be much better off choosing a speaker with an aimable woofer if it is to be used as a left, center, right (L/C/R) speaker. This speaker has an adjustable tweeter only. An aimable woofer will you give you the best experience in a surround configuration because your front 3 speakers are the most important. I hope this helps!
Q: How do you mount speakers in the ceiling? What hardware comes with speaker?
A: You cut the circle and there are clamps that come out as you run the screws up and the clamp the drywall. You still have to get speaker wire to them
Q: Would the speaker's sound match up well with other brands?
A: I recommend you to look up directly on Polk site with the part number, if they are timbre matched. Usually all Polk released a couple years apart, do sound similar with the same volume setting. If your receiver has a audio level setting mic, then they auto adjust individual channel levels to sound appropriate. If you are using these for surround application, you will hardly notice any difference. If you are using them as your main Front L, C & R speakers, there could be differences in the mid's and high's in the sense that they may sound a little muffled or not sharp enough, when you mix & match different speaker models.
Q: Does this speaker require an additional mounting bracket or is everything included to mount it?
A: The mounting brackets are built into the speaker.
Q: Can this speaker be mounted in the wall instead of the ceiling?
A: Although I mounted them in my ceiling, they should be able to mount in the wall just fine. There are four clamps that attach the speaker to the drywall.
Q: Does this model require a 2 or 4 wire connection
A: I used a 2 wire cable.
Q: What size hole cutout is required for Polk Audio - 6.5" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speaker?
A: Hello, the cutout measurements for the Polk Audio VT60 are 8 3-16 inches in diameter and 3 3/4 inches in depth.
