Hi all,

Im new to the forum here and I usually do more reading than posting but I thought i'd just add a little comparison between the CSIA4 vs the CSIA6 if anyone is interested.

I originally started off with the A4, but after doing some reading and some more research I decided to jump on the A6 for boxing day. Picked it up for 349$ CDN @ futuresho*p

Anyways I hooked up both speakers side by side and compared them. (Running the ONKYO NR609)

My conclusion was to keep the A6 as it sounded much fuller and had a wider image if that makes sense.

here are some quick pics I took while i was at it.

    The CSiA6 is a beast. I use an outlaw monoblock to power mine, that too makes a big difference.
