I am currently running 2 RTi 6s, a CSi 3, and 2 Monitor 50s and a PSW 111 on a Denon AVR 788.

I am trying to figure what to upgrade my Monitors to and I can't figure it out. I thought about a pair of RTI A1's I found online, but I could use some help.

Fronts: Monitor 50s
Center: CSi 3
Rears: RTi 6s
Receiver: Denon AVR-788

    Rti-6s are better Rti-A1s because they are the old Rti-A3s.

    Do you want to upgrade to another tower or stay bookshelf? The natural upgrade for you would be Rti-8s/A5s which are the entry tower that matches your center and bookshelves.

    You can get a pair right now on Polk's ebay site for 359 which is an absolutely fabulous price. Use the Rti-8s, Csi-3 upfront...move the Rti-6s to surround duty and you're definitely up a notch from what you had before for not much coin.

    Well I would prefer to shrink down a bit and go for the bookshelf if possible, but I suppose you will just tell me to just find another set of A3s or Rti 6s?
