    Yes the LSI7 and the LSi9. The RTiA3 is also a fantastic performer and much better then the RT25i's.

    I have not heard the rti a series so I cannot comment on them. I will say that i like my rt25is far bettwr than i liked my rti4 or rti6. However, my lsi7s blow both the rt25i and the rt7s away (and this is coming from someonw who loves both those speakers). However, cost and equiptment taken into account i do say its a tough choice depending on ones situation.
    Peace,
    Paul

    Yes, the lsi7, is awesome, much advanced tweeter, but, as far as the rtia3, goes, it has a larger woofer, and not the same tweeter, given the right amount of power the rt25i, smokes it, imageing, and tightness, far better tweeter, Tri-lam,
