    CSI A6 sounds better with the RTI A series speakers, and S30 sounds better with the signature series. Any other speakers they are matched with they will sound mediocre, to acceptable at best.

    I have to s30 and the s20 I just want to make sure I got the right front stage set up. I love the way the set up sounds. But if it could be even better that's what I want.

    I tried the CSi5 and 3 with my S60, nope aint happening. S30 blends right in. CSI speakers stood out way to much for my liking.

    I have a TSX250C in my bedroom HT with S20 and does ok, at least is doesn't stand out.

    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.

    I had a CSI a6 that I compared to the s35 with my 60s. The a6 which sounds great did not blend or match with the 60s. Same series and timbre makes for a nice seamless sound stage.
