RTi-150 opinions

Audioquest

What is the consensus on this model? Sound....driver reliability etc. I have a line on a mint pair for a decent price. Going to use them for my rear surrounds.

I have owned the RTi-600 some years back and was pretty impressive at the time in a 2 channel rig with a Bryston amp.

Thanks for your input

I personally love the RTi-150's. Very dynamic speaker, especially with a good amp. By far, my fav speaker from that particular line. Might be overkill as surrounds but if the price is right, I say go for it.

Thanks for the input. 2.3's in the front and those in the rear all driven with a 175 w/ch Denon AV-R5800

Won't be a perfect a timbre match but it should work. Are you going to replace your Klipsch center too?

Probably, but I think I am going to first look for a receiver like the Onkyo or something like that which has Audyssey. A friend bought the 9.9 processor, and it really can do a pretty fine job of adjusting timbre due to speaker differences and room acoustics.

I was looking at some of those too, and would love to hear how they compared to the RT 3000's, 2000's and 1000's. Or even my RTi70's.

I'm not sure how they compare to the ones you listed, but they really do sound very good. Very full spectrum from top to bottom, and smooth yet detailed highs. Definitely no need for a sub while listening to music and not boxy sounding in the least.
