I bought the csi5 off Rt1 when he had his huge sale just before PF. I was able to pick it up at DJ7 house early April. My parents drove it back for me and I just got it last week. I hooked it up gave it a good calibration. I have been testing it out with TV shows, and s3 games, movies will come this week. I have to say I am very impressed by this speaker, the csi3 was no wimp but this speaker just blows it out of the water. I find I hear much more detail, sounds are more crisp, clean. Voices seem more full (xover is set to large at 60, same as my rti8) not to mention the sound stage seem to get extremely wide. I am very please with this speaker, thanks again to Rt1 for the great deal and driving it to Steve's house and thanks to Steve for holding on to it for such a long time. I have to admit it does make my 42" Panny plasma look small now. I will not be upgrading the TV if anything a pj is in the future. My next step will now be to upgrade my Energy S10.2 sub. It sure took a long time but that saying goes, good things come to those who wait sure is true in my case. I never really understood others when they would compare the two, but now I know what everyone was talking about. I'll post more once I have time to play around with it. I'm off work this week as I had septoplasty done yesterday and I'm running on no sleep and pain killers right now.

    Thanks guys and gal. Well surgery went well but I developed and ear infection so it is making very difficult to calibrate the speakers cause I'm not sure if it is the speaker that is off of my right ear. :sad:
