I am currently running the CsiA6 with Rti A3`s.
Can pickup a pair of S55`s for a good price.
Would I notice a big difference? I do not want to replace the CsiA6 either.
Any comments would be appreciated.

    Only your ears will tell you if you like the combined sound of the 55s and the CsiA6. Try it and see.

    I'm pretty sure you will like the Signature 55s, they aren't as bright as the CsiAs and do well with both music and movies. Or you can look for a deal on the 55s elsewhere. It seems like someone is always running a special on them.

    They will not be timbre matched, so yeah you will notice.

    Yes they are not timbre matched but it will blend very well.
    I have a CSi-A6 with my S60, it blends very nice. I've tried 3 different center speakers with my current setup. S30, TSX250c and CSi-A6. Out of the 3 I like the A6 the best. Dialog is very clear with a nice rich detail the other speakers missed, mostly the TSX250c.

    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.
