Cadel Evans and the BMC Racing Team turn their attention toward another hard day in the mountains Saturday after the stage hunters grabbed the spotlight and the overall contenders sought some recovery Friday at the Tour de France.
Not Much Nervousness
Thor Hushovd (Garmin-Cervélo) soloed out of the remnants of a shattered breakaway to win the 152.5-kilometer stage while Thomas Voeckler (Team Europcar) retained the overall lead. Evans finished 25th and kept his third place overall. "I think everyone finally raced without too much nervousness today," Evans said. "There was still the race for points and the stage win but it was more their thing today, than for us GC (general classification) guys. I think everyone is pretty tired from yesterday and tomorrow is a big day as well."
A Key Stage
Saturday's stage features seven categorized climbs over 168.5 km, including the mountain-top finish at Plateau de Beille. "It's a long climb," Evans said of the 16 km ascent that has hosted four finishes – all stages won by future Tour de France winners. "It's not as long of a day, but it is a hard day. It's going to be a pretty important day for sure. One of the key important days, as well as a couple of others in the Alps."

Laser Incident Numbers Climb as Enforcement Increases
Numbers released on May 15 by the FAA dramatize growing concerns over increasing numbers of people who continue to shine laser pointers at passing aircraft. While relatively harmless in initial appearance, laser beams from even handheld pointers have temporarily blinded pilots and forced crewmembers to take evasive action.
The FAA began tracking these incidents in 2005 when 283 were recorded. By 2008 the number had climbed to 913 and by 2010, 2,836 laser-pointer incidents were recorded. The data released last week showed 3,592 such events in 2011, a 26-percent increase over the previous year.
Department of Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood has directed the FAA, in cooperation with the Department of Justice, to step up enforcement action against anyone caught shining a laser at an airplane. "We will pursue the toughest penalties against anyone caught putting the safety of the flying public at risk," he said.
The FAA has already initiated enforcement action against 28 individuals since June 2011 and opened dozens more investigations. The current maximum penalty for a single laser incident is an $11,000 fine, although one individual was fined nearly $31,000 for repeated violations.
Anyone caught in a laser incident, who also carries an airmen's certificate, may also face revocation of his or her certificate, in addition to financial penalties.

Instead of making another crime with impossible enforcement, FAA should pursue the development of simple countermeasures to this non-existent "threat."
Passive, very sharp, bandstop filters that can be incorporated into eyewear are already in existence. At the moment, such lenses are fully effective against the 532 nM (and other) wavelength and have no deleterious effect except that they eliminate laser light.. The current obstacle is cost, which, if economies of scale apply, can be reduced to acceptable levels.
If the need is sufficient, there are more techniques than one that can eliminate the threat.
After all, fighter aircraft have built-in laser filtering to eliminate really dangerous high-powered IR lasers...and others...
Green lasers are used as pointers for astronomical observations. Sometimes it is difficult to tell whether a bright object in the sky is an airplane or a celestial object. Let's not turn legitimate students and sky observers into criminals. Eliminate the threat by eliminating the deleterious effect.
I agree with DJ, it is very easy to have available a pair of laser safety goggles which fit over your regular glasses. They are inexpensive (relatively) and very effective. I have used them in the lab and can hardly see a green laser (532 nm wavelength). If all pilots had them available, they could don them at the first sign of a laser incident. Once the degenerate public (those doing this sordid thing with lasers) figured that they were totally ineffective against pilots, they would stop doing it.
DJ, "Green lasers are used as pointers for astronomical observations. Sometimes it is difficult to tell whether a bright object in the sky is an airplane or a celestial object. "
Pray do tell, what astronomical observation can be made with a hand held laser?And, just in case, if you do not know what you are pointing at, DON"T POINT!
"Pray do tell, what astronomical observation can be made with a hand held laser?"
I agree, don't point if you don't know. But they work very well for star gazing and they don't call them 'star pointers' for nothing.
On another note, exactly how does a laser-to-aircraft bust go down? Would this be a new reality TV topic?
The best defense is a good offense. There are too many people with zero sense of respect and too much time on their hands. This problem will only continue, and cannot be entirely addressed by ground enforcement and penalties. I have to agree in principle with DJ. Would it not be possible to design aircraft glass (plexiglass) that is impervious to laser light?
I don't suppose that the laser industry and astronomical laser users would be willing to pay the hundreds of millions of dollars for general FAA certification of these laser-proof aircraft windows, and then individual FAA supplemental type certifications for each aircraft type that is currently in service? You just can't replace an aircraft windshield with whatever you want to – each windshield has to pass FAA requirements via a battery of tests, including bird strike tests. Also, aircraft windshields are heated in jets and many turboprops, which complicate certification even more. So while one could easily design a laser-proof aircraft windshield, getting it certified is both a timely and costly endeavour.
And I have to ask: why can't people just follow a federal law and not point a laser pointer at aircraft? That costs nothing more than some common sense…
I operate a laser welder, very powerful, and the cabinet has a see thru window that has a safety filter built in to protect passersby. This material is available to clad side windows of aircraft. Here is one site.
http://www.phillips-safety.com/ -click on 'Laser Window'-
I can only guess that the offending laser light came from a side window. Line of sight thru the windshield seems unlikely, coming from a ground source. -just guessing -
The size of fine is irrelevant. We can have a death penalty and still people would play with their lasers. However, $100 fine every time would have much better effect.
Having said that I think that big tag with "DO NOT POINT AT AIRCRAFT" warning could be added to all lasers that are sold. Some people are just too stupid to understand what they are doing.
"But new pilot glasses … new windshields?? Give me a break. I'd support a ban on the draned things first."
even if you could get everyone in the united states to support a ban, flights to other countries wouldnt have that ban.
remember the issue here is the safety of the people in and below the aircraft.
a fine to citizens plus a requirement to airlines/pilots to have readily available laser filtering glasses is a combo of offence and defense that protects both in and out of our country.
your supported solution is to expand the nanny state and provide little to no actual protection for those in or below the aircraft. you are a perfect example of being unable to fix stupid.
Maybe the FAA should try educating people rather them bust them after the fact. Nobody thinks "Oh, it might cost me $11,000 if I point this laser at a airplane" They're thinking "how cool is my new laser, I wonder if it would go as far as the Airplane". All while not realizing the consequences. How about educational signs in the airports and advertising?
It was Ron White who said "You can't fix stupid."
There's a serious message there. It's a hell of a lot easier to prevent a problem than to outlaw a human contribution.
For a hint, consider "the war on...." fill in the blank.
Of course a laserproof canopy retrofit would be silly, but prophylactic glasses would be an easy fix. Let the FAA spend a few bucks developing something that can actually be useful.
Remember American ingenuity?
The military use green lasers to signal automobiles approaching armed checkpoints. Maybe the idea of a filter interferes with their procedures.
By the way, I'm a pilot, have advanced degrees in electrical engineering, and before retiring worked in the electronic countermeasures field.
I also own a green laser, and was a successful expert witness in a case where an innocent man would have been destroyed because some federal prosecutor chasing green lasers needed a win.
Think about something other than a knee-jerk "fry the &$@" reaction. It's a win-win.
The most dignified response that I can offer to the FAA's "alarm" over laser incidents is, "Nice Try"! This newest manufactured concern over this phenomenon is a new low even for the federal government! Their statistics are no doubt not worth the paper that they are laser-printed on. Here's an idea, restrain the ruby-red
laser pointers that equip the terrorist weapons carried by your now-ubiquitous fascist SWAT teams and that would save a lot more lives than criminalizing a phony threat to commericial aviation! Once Again, Nice Try!
The following is a copy of my Sept 2009 posting for the Buffalo NY News regarding a laser incident involving a police helicopter.
Give me a break.
"really a burning sensation in your eyes," Caffery, said. If the hand held laser in question was 5mW or less at 532 nm (green), all I have to say is "WHAT DRAMA". Point of reference, I have worked in the high energy laser field for ~20 years, safety trained per ANSI 135.1 and have built kilo watt class lasers for US military purposes. If what the pilot is reporting is true, then we also need to keep this pilot out of the sun and away from car high beams.
This fear of lasers has grown out of proportion as gross public ignorance has damage how people perceive the device. Given an aircraft altitude of 500 ft min. (FAA rule) not including any angular component for Line of Sight (LOS), a hand held laser could not be placed long enough to remain on target (pilots eyes) on a moving platform beyond a person's aversion respond time. The spot diameter of the beam along with the beam divergence, incident angle of the laser relative to aircraft windshield, to the amount of suspended aerosols in the air (scatter) would place the energy level per square cm extremely low and certainly no longer coherent.
Naturally the pilots noticed the light since your eyes at night are sensitive to the Oxygen line (green), but noticing the light does not in itself mean the light is dangerous. The typical auto driver has more to worry about oncoming car head lights on a dark highway then what any pilot would have from a 5mW hand held 532 nm laser given the variables involved. As for the safety studies, read them, they are weak at best. What we have here are prima donna pilots that feel they own the sky. Last, I use to fly a Cessna 152, 172 and L-29 jet.
Find someplace where there is a headlight beam reflector (which is not even moving) on a bridge abutment and stand a football field length (300 feet) away. Try to point accurately enough to get a reflection. If you still have time to waste, find a cat in a tree (at maybe 50 feet away) and try to get a reflection from the cat's eyes... go home, the cat is laughing at you.
Lasers are not a pending problem. New more $$$ pilot User Fees are all pilots worst danger!
Mr McGraw:
A 5 milliwatt laser is out of range of potential eye damage beyond a distance of 75 feet. For a 100 milliwatt laser, it's about 300 feet.
FAA has done extensive work using real lasers in cockpit simulations and concluded that in a small percentage of cases, 532 nM laser illumination can temporarily cause deleterious effects in some parts of landing procedure. It depends on the pilot.
By the way, FAA uses a one-watt three-color laser system to warn aircraft entering the Washington, DC prohibited zone. They deliberately decolumnate the beam to decrease the range at which eye damage occurs.
I would think the biggest hazard is pilot distraction rather than eye damage. Gusty crosswind approach at night, maybe a fault light on, and some yahoo shines a dazzling light into the cockpit and can't even keep it still...
The problem is technologies like lasers put a lot of power to harm in people's hands. Unlike firearms, there's no forensic evidence like ballistics / powder, or sound, so the psychological barrier to causing harm when a person is cranky is lower. At our local airport, ~2/3 of the noise complaints are from 2 households: I bet they feel tempted to retaliate.
I'd vote for filter goggles, can be had for way less than the typical headsets etc we blow money on. And maybe have the FAA look into an automatic laser-triangulation system (like gunfire detection) to install at airports?
I have been a law enforcement pilot for 20 years. The last decade has swelled with lasers being used as a tactic by criminals to defeat air units in the area. I have had 34 laser incidents during my career, the latest being April 2012. The 20mw green laser was used by a suspect to cause my aircraft to vacate the area that we were searching for an armed robbery crew. Without discussing the entire incident and the list of symptoms that I suffered (called mythical by some on this blog) I can assure that these new lasers are very capable of causing significant eye damage.
All of our pilots have baseline eye/retinal mapping. This incident cased multiple retinal spot burns and a vitrious gel detachment to my eye....Please understand that this area in not a joke nor should you talk as though it is. Good men and women are being injured by this often.
I have tried a pair of laser-protective glasses designed for airline pilots in simulators and in flight. I've shown them to hundreds of airline pilots, instructors, and FAA check pilots. They are moderately tinted, reducing night visibility somewhat. The pilots will not wear them, not because they reduce their vision, but because if any incident happened they might be blamed for wearing these glasses that reduce vision. They would have to be wearing them for every night takeoff and landing for true protection.
Airline pilots work in an extremely dangerous legal environment. They are frequently fined, fired, or lose their license for the slightest deviation from rules, "standard practice", or common sense, which are frequently not the same. The FAA had a hand in developing these glasses, but gave no official approval, which would have made all the difference to the pilots, but the FAA didn't want the responsibility.

"It's going to be an opportunity for the public to learn about all the different programs and services we provide through the local county extension office, and that's going to cover the gambet of our 4-H youth development program to our agriculture and natural resources programs as well as our family and consumer science programs," Pugliese said. "We'll have booths set up where people can learn and experience some of the different services we provide such as soil testing, water testing, insect and disease diagnostics for home gardens, lawns, farm applications and we'll have videos people can watch that will be ongoing throughout the night on what we provide as far as services."
"We're the outreach arm of the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension program, so we provide the education on everything from how to grow your crops and food and vegetables, and we assist both farmers and homeowners with that process," Pugliese said. "We help folks with growing food all the way from the farm to the table, and so the table aspect of that would be the home-food preservation, canning, cooking, freezing and preserving that food, which gets into our family and consumer science side of things."
The open house also will provide an opportunity for visitors to learn about 4-H.
"The 4-H program is our youth outreach program, as far as getting kids to learn some of these life skills, whether it's growing your own food or learning how to protect the environment. A lot of the opportunities for kids to get involved are focused on environmental education, so the kids can actually learn about some of these things during the summer camps we provide during the summer, and there will be a table with information [on 4-H] at the open house."
Woodland Middle School eighth-grader Katie Poe recently spoke to The Daily Tribune News about her experiences in 4-H and the annual Georgia 4-H Junior Conference. Poe said she enjoyed the activities at the conference as well as the classes.
"What's important to me about 4-H is it's kind of like a company that helps make the world a better place," Poe said. "... Next year I hope to do more community service than I have done this year.
"I'd like to participate in the River's Alive program and just donate more to people in need, like the food drive and the coat drive we do every year."
Pugliese said it's important for the growing community to see the various opportunities available through its local agencies.
"I think a lot of younger generations are not aware of all the services and opportunities we provide in the community, and so the idea of having this open house is hopefully some folks will be able to get here after work who aren't able to stop by our office during the daytime and experience some of these things," Pugliese said.
The itinerary for the event includes:
• 4 p.m.: Light refreshments, tour, Ask a Master Gardener and 4-H information table
• 5:30 p.m.: 4-H performing arts variety show
• 6 p.m.: Seminar titled "Top 10 Tree and Landscape Mistakes"
• 6:45 p.m.: Kathy Floyd, retired Family and Consumer Science Extension agent, presents seminar titled "Home Food Preservation Tips"
• 7:30 p.m.: Door prizes

New Video on Chemical Engineering
Phil Kinnane | April 19, 2012
One project that has been really exciting to work with is a resource CD for our users and prospects. Called the Chemical Showcase, we will soon be offering this to engineers and scientists who are interested in modeling, and want to apply this to chemical engineering, battery, fuel cell, reactor and electrochemical applications. One of the fun things about producing the Showcase was recording this nifty chemical engineering video…
The Showcase will also include a multitude of model examples, user stories, white papers and articles from the conference. Look out for it in the next couple of weeks.

TRAINING: 5am - eat 5 raw eggs, run 5 miles. Then I wake up from my dream and drag myself out of my bed at 830 and sip some coffee with some banana bread. I drive half asleep to practice (12-2pm) and proceed to kick my own ass for 2 hours. Eat, sleep, and get back to training at 6pm for cardio, pad work and drilling. That's a wrap.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Polk Audio RTi A9 by Loren Barstow Floor-standing speakers still standing tall Sure, floor-standing tower speakers buck the industry trend toward smaller, visually inconspicuous speakers, but they're hard to beat if great sound is your primary goal. Tower speakers produce powerful sound with excellent bass, making them a great choice for serious music lovers and for folks who want high-impact home theater. Audiophile-quality sound from a great-looking tower speaker Meet the flagship speaker in Polk's newly redesigned RTi Series. The RTi A9 floor-standing tower speaker combines a handsome, real wood veneer finish with the kind of performance that pleases even critical listeners. A high-tech approach to accurate sound An inside view of this speaker's careful driver design. This speaker's carefully designed drivers undergo laser testing to help identify and eliminate resonance points, ensuring smooth, accurate response. Its asymmetric cabinet helps it deliver rich, clear sound by combating vibration and increasing rigidity. The A9 also includes Polk's exclusive PowerPort® technology that reduces noisy air turbulence and increases low-frequency output. You'll enjoy clear highs, rich bass, and open, natural-sounding midrange. Additional high-end features Two sets of gold-plated five-way binding posts let you biamp or biwire the RTi A9 for the best possible sound. An anti-diffraction grille helps it deliver a large, three-dimensional soundstage with pinpoint-accurate stereo imaging. Adjustable spikes provide stability on both carpeted and hardwood floors. Recommended center channel speaker: Polk CSi A6. Recommended surround speakers: Polk RTi A3 or FXi A6. The asymmetric cabinet fights vibration for clearer sound. Got wire?

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Driver Technology Enclosure Design Connections Mounting Options Dimensions Driver Technology Dynamic Balance: Dynamic Balance is a proprietary Polk Audio technology using laser imaging to determine what combination of speaker materials create the least amount of resonance. Eliminating resonance in speakers results in a wide, smooth response and low distortion. Polymer Composite Woofers: The speaker features three 7" polymer composite woofers. Three 7" woofers have the surface area of a single large woofer with the low mass and acceleration of small woofers, resulting in tighter, more accurate bass response. Each woofer uses a butyl rubber surround. Polymer Composite Midranges: The speaker has two 5-1/4" polymer composite midranges for smooth wide-range response with low distortion. For high performance durability, each midrange uses a butyl rubber surround. Silk/Polymer Tweeter: The speaker has a single 1" silk/polymer dome tweeter that provides clear, detailed highs. The tweeter features mylar bypass capacitors in the crossovers to extend high frequency response and improve detail and transparency. The tweeter also features low viscosity ferro-fluid cooling with a heat sink on the Neodymium magnet for superior heat dissipation, power handling and reliability. Magnetically Shielded: The speakers are magnetically shielded, allowing you to place them near your television without distorting the picture. Enclosure Design Damped Asymmetric Hex Laminate (DAHLI) Cabinet Design: All-MDF construction with massive asymmetric cabinet bracing ensures a resonance-free enclosure for accurate sound. The asymmetric design is made from a 6-layer laminate with 5 viscous layers to create the optimal shear damping (OSD) system. The elegant styling aside, curved cabinets not only result in a stronger, more rigid and acoustically inert enclosure, but the curved walls also produce less audible coloration from panel resonances. Power Port Venting System: The speaker has a rear-firing Power Port venting system built into its back plate for precise deep bass response from the floor-standing speaker's three 7" polymer composite woofers. This venting system allows air velocity to slow gradually, vastly reducing air turbulence, and delivering greater bass efficiency than conventional ports. Note: The two 5-1/4" midrange drivers feature a sealed cabinet. Anti-Diffraction Grilles: The floating anti-diffraction grilles minimize grille diffraction for spacious, 3-dimensional imaging. Connections Dual 5-Way Binding Posts: The speaker has two sets of gold-plated 5-way binding posts connected by gold-plated jumpers. Using the dual 5-way binding posts, you can bi-amp or bi-wire the speakers. Mounting Options Adjustable Leveling Spike Feet: The adjustable leveling spike feet that can be screwed onto the bottom of the speaker's attached base provide stability on any type of flooring. The spike feet adds approximately 0.875" to the speaker's overall height when screwed all the way in. Specifications & Dimensions Frequency Response: The overall frequency response is 18Hz-27kHz and the -3dB frequency response is 30-26kHz. Width: The main body of the speaker is 8.6875" wide but the speakers attached feet extend beyond each side of the speaker, giving the speaker and overall width of 10.6875". Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?) Quick impressions from the Lab Comment by James IT Programmer/Analyst 2, Almost Perfect Written by James, IT Programmer/Analyst 2, on 6/26/2012 10:18:00 AM Let me start by saying I love these loudspeakers, they sound GREAT! I've used the Polk RTi A9's as my main left and right for about a year, and after a short break-in period they really came out. Music sounds fantastic. The sound stage sets the musicians realistically. They're very clear and concise, I've heard more detail from my CDs than ever before. I use my A9's mostly for home theater and they shine with matched speakers. Mine are set up with the voice-matched CSI A6 center and FXI A6 surrounds. The effects seamlessly envelope me. I like my movie sound loud and detailed, so I'm in it. These do that job superbly. Did I say I loved these speakers yet? As many customer reviews have also stated, the A9's need power. A lot of power. They still sounded good when I drove them off of a 7.1 Onkyo receiver at 110 watts, but the lows suffered some. When I bi-amped them the lows came out and really started to hit. I think these speakers would gain even more from more power and a separate powerful amp (they can take 500 watts!). The cabinets are very nice and the cherry color blends in well in my living room. These speakers are big, they do have a dominating presence which I love but, unfortunately, my wife doesn't. They are also very heavy, so moving them around is kind of a pain, but it's a good sign of the quality of their build. Positives: Clear, detailed, loud. Not So Positives: Wife appreciation factor, need a whole lot of power to make them really shine.

These are the best speaker ever seen and herd in my life! Very heavy. They go good with my Onkyo tx-rn 1010 a 140 watt receiver! They are worth more than what they cost! To me these are some of the best speakers Polk ever made. Flag Ship can't describe these speaker They are the heart of my system and then some!! 7 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 RTi A9 speakers Written By richard g, Lexington, ky on Saturday, May 24, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These speakers are bright & very lively. They can produce a huge volume of sound with depth and clarity. I am replacing RTA 15tl (1991) which had a smooth low end sound. These speakers are livelier and much more dynamic in the sound presentation. Great for a Theater system Pros: Nice fit & finish to the cabinets. Active dynamic sound. Narrow profile. Incredible volume Cons: May seem a little bright for the old Album crowd (I am a member) 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Big Bang Boom!!!!! Written By Big Bad Legs, Chicago on Saturday, April 26, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have been a music fanatic my whole life and I use different speakers for different types of listening. I have my Klipsch Cornwalls on my "Main" stereo. Thats for thumping my wife and kids out of bed on Sunday morning or when I want to get the most sound out of a recording without blistering the paint on the walls. I have a set of 901s in the basement for the drunks and the kids. I had a commercial Sony Surround sound / DVD player, you know the kind with the plastic speakers and Elmers glued on speaker covers and it was mainly for the kids and it served its purpose at the time. It was finally time to put it out in a garage sale and build again. Kids in school, funds kinda weak, I browsed the bargain bin and found these Polks for a reasonable price. The ad said scratched and banged up floor model. After reading reviews on this brand and model, I liked the spec's and I rolled the dice. When they got here, they were too big for my wife to move.Together we took them out of boxes that looked like crap, we were shocked. They are beautiful and if they say thats banged up, I will eat your hat. These looked brand new, like a piece of modern art. Not B and O modern but for us they were great. Plugged em in to the main stereo for an audition and what I got was "Big Bang Boom"! They sounded great, looked great and they will proudly anchor my new surround system. Keep it up Crutchfield! So far you have a customer for life! Pros: Sound great and I haven't even broken them in yet. Look like a piece of furniture. Too heavy for a burglar. Cons: Don't leave them for your wife to move by herself or you will get skip for dinner. 7 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 WOW! RTi-9 Written By MRI3T, USA/Maryland on Thursday, April 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Unbelievable sound, cabinet quality! These things are like a piece of art to look at!! Unlike me to spend this kind of money on a set of speakers, but I'm very satisfied that I did! Wish I were driving it with an amp with a little more punch (these babies can handle 500w continuous) I have them paired with a PA sub-woofer and it adds a great sound for movies as well. Separately these RTi9's are great, low-end thru high-end! I've never owned high quality speakers b4 & I would definitely recommend these! I also bought these, 1 as an open box, & the other as damaged, neither of them had any visually impairing prob. for me! The grill was messed up on the one, but I prefer them w/o the grill! Pros: Everything about them! Probably be the last pair I ever have to buy! Cons: Can't find anything yet... They seem to get better with time! 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 These speakers ROCK! Written By Brewmonkey, San Antonio, TX on Friday, April 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced a pair of Cerwin Vega CLS-215's with these. I was a bit worried when I ordered the A9's, that they wouldn't produce the type of bass I'm used to with the Vega's. These speakers produce PLENTY of tight, thumping bass! I listen to just about everything except country music, and I've put these speakers through a wide variety of music, and they are just awesome all around. Crystal clear, and very detailed they are. I use them for music only, and they are powered by a 500 wpc amp. They don't seem to be anymore power hungry than the Vega's were, so I would say as long as you have decent gear I think you will be fine powering these with a receiver rated 100-125 (true) RMS, and not the crappy peak ratings some companies use. Anyhow if you are considering these for music, have no fear, buy them! Pros: Very detailed, not bright or muddy at all. Plenty of bass when you want it. Very appealing, and in no way an eyesore.(Cherry finish) Cons: None. Some people list heavy as a con, but to me this is a pro. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 2.1 setup Written By VitaliyG, hampstead, MD on Sunday, March 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Let me first begin by letting you know my setup. I have a 2.1 setup with a Marantz 7701 Preamplifier and an Emotiva XPA-2 power amplifier. This amp is a beast and the clean power at 300 watts per channel is really opening these speakers up. I have not tried these speakers with only a receiver, but from other peoples reviews it seems that having an additional power amplifier gives you the true capabilities of these speakers. I am using a Polk audio DSW pro 440wi subwoofer. This 8" sub has plenty of power and works great in my living room. I am using good quality wires for all my connections as well. the sub cable is a Sub-X Auioquest, I am using King Cobra XLR cables to connect my Marantz 7701 preamp to the Emotiva XPA-2. And finally I got Audioquest Rocket 44 speaker wire that I am running from the Amplifier to speakers. Pros: Good looking and clean crisp sound Cons: None so far 1 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Love These Speakers Written By Wes, Durham, NC on Thursday, March 06, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are great speakers at their price point. I'm driving them with a Marantz SR7008 Receiver and using them as left and right front speakers in a 9.2 surround setup. I've set the system up to handle high-res audio files. These speakers are the anchor for the system (also using the Polk subwoofer Pro 660wi.) I could have spent more and gotten more but I am completely satisfied with the outcome with these speakers. Pros: There just so darn classy looking! ...as well as being great speakers. Crystal clear highs and lows. Cons: None 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Polk rti-a9 Written By Jim b., Erie,pa. on Friday, December 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Pollks are now 1 year old and sound so much better now after many tweaks. I started with nad 375 bee intergrated amp then bought another as I felt I wasn't pushing enough power to really hear them let alone feel them. Power was at 330 watts/channel, then added 2 Polk dsw 660 subs,the towers really do sound better with these subs, maybe a little overkill but I can adjust pretty easy with the subs volume and room optimizer. The speakers are a tad forward(midranges) but really excell on keyboards,voices, horns. I made a couple a changes at the speaker wire and clear day double shotguns(silver wire) with jumpers,made all the difference! The sound is super clear, no boom, sound stage very wide, this what I thought the polks would do with tweaks. If u have the time and money this was well worth the upgrade. These speakers have transformed so much, funny,I almost sent them back, but let them break in, then start tweaking interconnects and speakers wire as I think that a major part of what you may discover how those changes really do make all difference. I just recently changed to a emotiva xpr-2 amp(omg!!) Now this is getting serious, I LOVE MY POLKS!!! 5 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Awesome Speakers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Written By Paul, Woodbridge, Va. on Sunday, November 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I couldn't be happier with the purchase of these RTi A9's! I am hearing music in a brand new way. I can't believe the sound that comes out of these speakers! I'm hearing nuances in music I've been listening to for years out of an older pair of Bose 301's that I never knew were there thanks to these new RTi's! I love Pink Floyd, but OMG! it's like listening for the first time! I was a little nervous about spending that kind of money on 2 speakers, but I'm so glad I did it. Pros: Bi-ampable, fidelity is incredible, beautiful black finish, tall and relatively thin so they fit easier in tight areas, MADE IN USA! Cons: At 80lbs. each, you will need help to unbox and position them. This isn't really a "con" because I believe you would have the same trouble with any speaker in this category..... 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The performance of previous Polks made with stick with them so I went for a higher line for the house we're building. Love the quality, the look, and the sound.

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Polk Rocks Written By Rob C, Chicago ridge ill on Tuesday, July 30, 2013 I have had these for about 2 years now. They are powerd by an Emotiva Xpa-5. I plan to purchase the xpr2 600 watts/ch. I have heard many systems and this one for the price equals them. The speakers absolutely kick a££ I do have a 1000 watt sub to add to the excitement. But really for the price of these speakers you can't go wrong. Pros: Price looks build quality sound crutchfield carries them Cons: None other then they are hard to move, but I think that's a small price to pay for such an awesome speaker 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I got these speakers two weeks ago and still breaking them in. They are heavy build and beautiful wood finish look like fine pieces of furniture. Sound was excellent but seem to be under power even though my receiver is a Yamaha RX-A2020 delivers 140 watt per channel and I have them bi-amp connection. I listen to them in low volume level in early morning or late at nigh and they sounds clear and warm, I though the bass was week but since I only use them to listen to music I am not in a hurry for a subwoofer. I read other people threats saying these speaker needs more power to sound at their best so I am in the process of looking for appropriate speaker preamp. I probably keep these speakers for a very long time. Pros: Sounds Great ! solid build look beautiful Cons: Need a lot of power 4 out of 15 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

They have taken all I've given them....beautifully. I also bought a subwoofer, which I have found to be necessary with these speakers. The sound quality and power handling are more than adequate for any house. I moved my A9s to my weekend home, and recently purchased the A7s for my apartment.....more than adequate.....dont forget: get a subwoofer! 3 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

These are my first home theater speakers, and they are very nice sounding. First thing I said when I opened the box was "wow" due to their size. I've heard complaints about them being to "bright" for music, although I don't have anything to compare them to they sound fine to me. I'm driving them with a Yamaha RX-A3020, once I get the surrounds installed, I will probably be upgrading to an external amp for these beasts. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Polk Audio RTi A9 Written By Anonymous, South Carolina on Sunday, August 05, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Spectacular speakers. I bought these scratch and dent from Crutchfield and the damage was cosmetic and minimal. Definitely worth the savings. Sound is excellent. Nice balance from deep lows to high highs, as well as at a range of volumes. The more I listen, the more I like them. I'm using the small powered Polk sub with them, since it was free from Crutchfield, but it's really not necessary. My 110 watt receiver seems to be fine with them, but I'd be curious to try something bigger since many reviewers seem to recommend more power. However, I've never heard them distort all the way up to uncomfortable volumes. Enjoying them for both music in stereo and 5.1 movies with other Polk speakers. Very happy with this purchase, especially having never heard them before buying. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 5 out of 5 A beautiful speaker (cherry) and sound great too. Written By blkyankee, Sabetha, Ks. on Thursday, May 24, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have had these speakers almost a month now and all I can say is wow!!! I was in the middle of finishing my HT when I traded horses mid-stream. I had and still do have, klipsch rf-82's when I decided to go with the Rti a9. They both are great speakers, but, I looked at the surrounds and wanted to go in the direction of the polks over klipsch. The polks sound is alot warmer to me, and they blow away the klipschs in the looks department. Very happy with my Rti a9's. Crutchfield was very easy and nice to order from. Great service. Pros: A great big beautiful looking and sounding speaker. Cons: None. 8 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great Speakers Written By Netman8762, Hollidaysburg, Pa on Friday, May 04, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great speakers! Very firm and true sounding. You do need to have some power to get the most out of them I am running an Onkyo TX-NR1009 with an M-282, the Receiver does the Low end and the 282 does the highs. It sound very nice but I still feel that it could stand more power. The range on these is really nice, I have spent some time listening to vinyl and am very pleased with the results. I should also note that these speakers are BIG! You need to have some room to move these around.. Very pleased and will keep for a while.. Pros: Great sound, true feeling. Look impressive, great sound. Great lows and strong mids. The highs seem very natural to me Cons: Huge, heavy and hard to move around.. 9 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Stop wasting your time and buy these... Written By Travis, Houston, TX on Sunday, July 24, 2011 A very musical speaker; could possibly be the last tower speakers you'll ever buy. The sound is very neutral and consistent from top to bottom. The bass is accurate and natural, but has the ability to take charge for more demanding audio tracks, and can go down to 20 hz quite comfortably. The Cherry Finish is beautiful and will blend well with other shades of wood. For the quality of product, the price is very reasonable. Also, they will sound very bright if under-powered. Moving them around can be awkward because of the shape and size of the cabinets, so save yourself the trouble and get someone to help you move them...use gloves. The RTi A9's are very capable speakers; however you should give just as much consideration to your other equipment. NO commercially-available receiver will do these towers justice because they have so many drivers. I originally bi-amped them with a TX-NR906 (~290 watts/channel.one of the most powerful ones out there), and while the sound was decent, it was obvious that my receiver could not fully control the entire range of the speaker in addition to the demands of the other speakers in my HT system. I highly recommend that you use quality amplifiers (such as XPA-1's) if you desire to use the RTi A9's as they were meant to be used. 54 out of 54 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Clear and Even Sound but Bass Needs Help Written By Dono from Ohio, West Chester, OH on Friday, June 17, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are really well made and high-quality speakers, and I like them. They seem to require significant power to maximize the bass and probably should be bi-amped. Their forte is mid-range and smooth high-end but not bass. I will have to connect my powered sub to augment the deficiency. This is pretty much par for the course for Polk. Recommended, but get a sub to be completely happy. 14 out of 20 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Jawdropping ! Written By Gene F, Binghamton, NY on Friday, May 20, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I got these bad boys because I like to play my music LOUD and let me tell you. My whole music collection sounds new again. I cranked up Joe Bonamassa when I hooked these up and my dear Lord !! I replaced 4 McIntosh ML-1C speakers I had since the 80's and was sad to see them go, but my expectations were more than met. They just come alive when you put the power to them. I have 2 NAD amps bridged to put out two mono sources of 300 watts and man alive, my friends sat there in utter disbelief. You aren't going to get the potential out of these if you have some wussy little receiver driving these. The crispness and spacial sound stage these things produce are stunning. If you got the space and the place, buy them now. You won't be sorry. Thanks Crutchfield, for a very pleasant experience. 18 out of 20 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 POLKS ROCK!!! Written By Gary, Ohio on Saturday, March 26, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Absolutely amazing!!! Cherry finish is spectacular. Speakers are huge and very impressive even without any sound coming from them. Crutchfield delivered on time and without any issues. I had these for a week now and am still breaking them in. I purchased these exclusively for 2 channel stereo, but since I have a polk surround system, I am breaking them in on that and they blend seamlessly. I couldn't resist putting a few cd's in my bluray palyer to hear some 2 channel stereo and I am absolutely blown away with the range of sound, I hear so much more off familiar cd's than I have ever before. I turned the tv on a jazz listening station (im a rock guy) an oh my goodness, they are awesome. the highs are there, the lows are there, and everything in between is there. I have been using these in surround mode with my sub turned off, so I can check the bass on these babies and its definately there, of course for movies you need a sub, but for music, I dont think I will. I haven't cranked these puppies up yet to some heavy Metallica yet, at least not loud, but I can already tell they have what it takes. Im so glad I went with Polks flagship model. Thank you Crutchfield, and thank all of you who post reviews to make this purchase much easier. I love my Polks. 16 out of 18 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 RTi A9s Rock House! Written By Tom K., Mission Viejo, CA on Sunday, March 20, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I never liked watching BR movies on my Sony LCD with the dinky sound. Some great floor standing speakers were in order. After a lot of research, I decided to take the plunge on a pair of speakers that would do justice to the home theater setup. The RTi A9's do the job extremely well and the double set of wire ports in the back tells you these were built for bi-amping (http://community.crutchfield.com/blogs/av_tips/archive/2008/04/23/are-you-sitting-on-a-wealth-of-untapped-power.aspx). It's something you should take full advantage of along with a good receiver to handle all that power. All you have to do now is put in "Apocalypse Now" on BR, cue up to the "Ride of the Valkyries" helicopter scene and experience nirvana. :) 10 out of 13 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

GREAT SPEAKERS, BUT MUST HAVE A POWERFUL AMP ,PRE AMP TO REALLY APPRECATE, I KNOW I HAVE A DENON 2311 REC., THAT I AM HAPPY WITH, FOR HOME THEATER,BUT NOT FOR THESE BABY'S.

Written By MarkF, Crossville, TN on Wednesday, January 19, 2011 I've recently bought the Marantz SR7005 receiver to push these. I've bi-amped 125 Watts into these speakers, running a total of 500 watts. I've gotta tell you, words cannot describe the sound quality that is produced. I'm hearing stuff that I've never heard in my music. They are built very solid and aesthetically gorgeous. There is now way you can get this quality of sound out of compact speakers. These might seem pricey, but like most everything in life, you get what you pay for. Be sure to at least push these with some power. Highly Recommended. 16 out of 18 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Big Speakers Rock! Written By Bob, Montgomery, Al on Monday, December 20, 2010 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I did a lot of web research on these speakers due to the price. Almost all reviews were excellent. After having mine for several weeks I totally agree. I upgraded from my Def Tech's BP-8's. The A9's are awesome speakers and fill the room with music. What I like most about these is how good they sound at low volume. I'm mostly a two channel music guy and my cd and lp collection has never sounded better. I also got a sub but these have plenty of bass. I'm using a Yamaha RS-700 100 watt receiver and the pairing is great. They are big 70lbs each and require special shipping but Crutchfield called me within 2 minutes to fill me in on details. Great service and great speakers. Sound great with rock, jazz. blues. 15 out of 16 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great Speakers! Excellent Service! Written By Mike, West TN. on Wednesday, August 05, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Ordered 2 of these from the scratch and dent outlet. One was near perfect and the other was damaged in shipping. One call and the damaged speaker was picked up and the replacement exceeded my expectations. If you look up customer service in the dictionary, the definition should read CRUTCHFIELD! Oh yeah, these polks rock, excellent bass, detailed midrange, and clear smooth highs. Could not be more pleased with my purchase. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Polk RTi A9 Written By Christopher, Chicagoland, Il on Tuesday, May 12, 2009 I replaced an older Bose system with the A9's. I took Crutchfields recommendation on these speakers, while the price was a bit daunting I really wanted better sound out of music and movies. I REALLY got it! My receiver is the Denon AVR-3808CI. Movies and especially music have really come to life out of these speakers. My cd collection has never had the workout it is getting since I installed the A9's. There is an extra dimension to everything that comes out of the speakers that was NOT there before. All of the sound is clear and crisp. Highs are high but not ice pick high. Mid's are.......beautiful and the lows are bassy but not muddy. The cabinets are a thing of beauty. They certainly added to the decor of my family room. They are pricey but worth it in my opinion. If you are in the market for a set of forever speakers and have the extra $, these may just be the ones for you. They certainly are for me. 26 out of 27 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Polk Rti9 Written By Noel, Matthews. NC on Saturday, November 15, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Loved these speakers. I bought two scratch and dent and they are perfect. My amp pushes out 300w so these are perfect as front speakers. By far the best looking without the front grill and the sound is near perfect. Delivery and Cruthfield were great. I even bought another for a back speaker and am saving for another. Thanks 8 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I have had these speakers for about 2 months now and I am very pleased. Mids and highs are crystal clear even at extreme volume levels. Bass response is great at all but the highest of volume levels. I have'em Bi-amped with an Onkyo 805 which puts out 260 watts to each speaker. They truely a joy to listen to and I have to fight to keep from cranking the volume up constantly....even at 5 in the morining...with housemates. Money well spent. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Outstanding! Written By m58villa, Tinley Park, IL on Sunday, October 05, 2008 I couldn't be more happy with my purchase. I have these speakers connected to my aged, but ever powerful, 500 watt power amp along with a matching tuner and pre-amp. These speakers are well balanced, warm and the cabinet is something out of Fine Woodworking. Imaging couldn't be more distinct and let me tell you, they will take all that my amp can deliver without a speck of distortion. You will love these speakers as I do!

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Prime Time Towers Written By jmarch, Chattanooga, TN on Sunday, February 10, 2008 This will be the first review of these beauties, Polks web site has 3 reviews otherwise this is it, I googled everywhere couldn't find anyone with a review. Anyway...I bought these by the picture and info here never heard them before, but I had a good idea this was a good choice, I have Polk momo car speakers in ALL 4 of my cars and bang for the buck NOTHING matches the preformance of Polk. These monsters are heavy and extremely well built, 4 feet tall, the cabinets taper slightly, towards the back. I almost needed a dolly to move these around, I couldn't get my arms around them, unbelievable mass and build quality. Stunning to look at, hard to take my eyes off of them, I have yet to put the grills on (doubt I ever will) they are beauiful and tastefully crafted and would blend into any upscale home decore they just scream power and preformance. I have the black / silver accent model. Onkyo TX-SR875 140 Watts a channel is driving these babies every octive, highs,mids,bass preforms flawlessly. Understand speakers of this caliber take a few weeks to break in same as Polks car speakers. Other than the Odessay calibration of the Onkyo I have added 2db to the base for tweaking the lows the tweaters are very brilliant and clean no adjustment needed overall performance is stunning. Your home or ears cannot handle the top end sound and power these speakers can produce. At lower volumes they still sound full, deep, brilliant and powerful. You will be hard pressed to find any speaker at this price range and build quality that comes close to these amazing speakers. These are a bargain at 749.00 ea that preform at the 2-4K price range. Don't skimp on a receiver a 1,500 set of speakers needs a 1,500 receiver These need good clean power. Would you put cheap tires on a new Corvette? The public and magazine critics have yet to catch on to these masterpieces they are so new and undiscovered. I'm loving these speakers, by far the BEST value Crutchfield has in tower speakers. Anyone who chooses these...YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! 192 out of 217 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked I noticed that the reviewer said the speakers sounded better "bi-amped" do to power needs to drive the speakers. What is a bi-amp, and if I don't use a bi-amp, how big of a receiver will I need to drive these? Thank you. Brad [ brad Dec 27, 2013 ] 1 answer Thanks for your question.

BMC riders Julien Absalon and Lukas Flückiger are top favourites for the fourth round of the BMC Racing Cup 2013 on Sunday. In Gränichen Moritz Milatz will also try to latch onto the strong performance that he was able to show early in spring this year.
According to Lukas Flückiger, his teammate "Julien has to be the clear favourite." But after the World Cup races in Albstadt and in Nove Mesto Flückiger himself must be classified as a true contender.
In preparation for the World Cup in Val di Sole and for the European Championships in Bern, Lukas Flückiger plans to participate in the professional road race GP Aargau on Thursday. "Perhaps this will not be optimal preparation for Gränichen, but I have never really had any problems with it in the past. The terrain, the topography in Gränichen, it all suits me," said Flückiger.
His teammates Moritz Milatz and Ralph Naef have done a training session in Tuscany. German biker Milatz hopes that he has overcome the aftermath of his infection. After his hand surgery, Ralph Naef has contested his first cross-country race last Sunday in Italy, and he plans to continue on his way back to the top in Gränichen. Meanwhile Martin Fanger would like to perpetuate his recent series of strong results.
