has anyone compared the csi30 with the csi40? if so what were your findings? i am mainly interested in movie perfomance, music would be secondary.
thanks, vic

    This topic has been hashed out over the past few months, do a search for my posts to see the two side by side pics i posted.. and also do a search for csi30/40 and you will see a ton of threads about this debate.. the obvious is larger, better bass, louder.. matched better with 70's.. so on

    Its real easy, CSi40 :)

    The CSi30 is a great center channel, but the CSi40 is the better performance choice.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
