Would like to upgrade my CSi30 to LsiC but a little concern on soundstage balance with RTi70, Fxi surrounds. Please advice. Thank you polks. My assumption that this should work w/o issue.
Godspeed,

    It would work but the LSiC is a superior speaker...

    Have you considered purchasing the used set of RTi38 for sale in the flea market and using those as center channels?

    Just put the tweeters together... that's less than 2 bills!

    I have a pair of RTi38 as surrounds, might have to try this out. What's the setting, // connect ? Will this be better than LsiC alone?

    Just run them in paralle (+ to +, - to -) Make sure your amp can handle a 4 ohm load

    Wouldn't that create a 2 omh load?

    The RTi38 is an 8 ohm speaker
