    I have both and my vote goes to RTI A7. They sound much fuller. Some people prefer A5 and better subwoofer.

    I read a lot of reply's on this sight on a5 vs a7. I'm not an expert but to me the main reason the a7 are better is they have bass. The a5 are mid range and my choice was a5 with a desent sub. To each its own . There is a lot of thread on this sight about this topic.
