Will the csi-a6 work with my setup
I have a Denon AVRX 3100 W receiver. My front speakers are the Polk T 50s I have a kliptch sub 10, my side and rear speakers are Polk FX 1–a4’s, My question is will the CSIa6 center channel speaker complement my set up.

It's a fine center, but not a timbre match to your T50's.Political Correctness'.........defined

So should i look for a different center channel speaker? Or different front speakers? What would work, or match with my a4’s as i like the looks and sounds of them? Thank you for your comments

If you can find a pair of RTiA5, A7 or A9 I would go that route. Any of those would be a perfect match to the CSiA6 and a major step up from the T50.Political Correctness'.........defined

How about monitor 70 series 2, or rti10’s and would these all work well with my fx1-a4’s ???

I had the M70's SII for quite a while and sounded best with a ton of power behind them, IMO. The RTi10's are comparable to the A7s would also, IMO, be a step up from the M70's. I would think the CSiA6 and the RTi10's would be a great choice. Also, the FXiA4 is the bi/di pole speaker, right? And yes, all of the above would work well, I've used the FXiA6 with the M70's and the A9's.Source: BRP Panasonic UB9000, CDP Emotiva ERC3 - Display: LG OLED EVO 83 C3 - Pre/Pro: Marantz 8802A - Amplification: Emotiva XPA-DR3, XPA-2 x 2, XPA-6, Speakers, Mains/2ch-Focal Kanta No2's, C-LSiM706, S-702F/X, RS-RTiA9's, WS-RTiA9's, FH-RTiA3's, Subs - Epik Empire x 2

I found a pair of the RTI-A7 and those paired with the csi-A6 and the fx1-A4’s work fantastic together!!! Thanks for all the advice

My current setup is a pair of the RTI-A7 and those paired with the csi-A6 and the fx1-A4’s work fantastic together!!! I have two subs a polk 8 inch and a kliptch sub12, going to sell the polk 8 inch sub and look for another! My question is what other subs would pair well with my current setup?
Thanks for any advice -
I just told you, sell both subs and get a single SVS SB4000. It'll easily outperform your current subs.Political Correctness'.........defined

Not a great sub. Like I said, even a SVS PB1000 will be a big upgrade over both your subs combined…Living Room 2.2: Usher BE-718 "tiny dancers"; Dual DIY Dayton audio RSS210HF-4 Subs with Dayton SPA-250 amps; Arcam SA30; Musical Fidelity A308; Sony UBP-x1000es

Second that svs sb 4000. It is in a whole other level . I had 2 Polk 10 subs at one time and 2 Klipsch 12 inch subs another time and 1 svs sb 4000 blew them away by so much that Polk and Klipsch shouldn't be able to call them subs. -
If you know anything about SVS, all their Subs are damn good. You should buy the correct size sub or subs to match the size of your room.
The 4000 isn't better than the 1000, it has more output and IF needed works better in larger rooms. But if you have a small room, the 1000 series is the way to go. Followed by 2000 3000 etc.Dan
My personal quest is to save to world of bad audio, one thread at a time. -
Keep an eye on the SVS outlet store. Currently a SB1000 for $499 or a PB2000 for $599. I own the PB2000 and absolutely love it...

I have a 18x14.5 room and the svs was amazing and blended very well with my legacy signature bookselfs -
Among other things there are significant differences between the SVS drivers.
