If you live in the Washington DC area, can I please come over with some of my favorite CDs to audition your RTi-100s. It will only be about 45 minutes. I would like to hear what they are like.

For those reading the post not in DC area, please post what speaker you think the RTi-100 resemble sonically.

Please e-mail me at ds22030@yahoo.com

Thanks,

Daniel:)

    The best RTi series I can offer you is the RTi38. It's timbre will definetly match.
    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.

    yes, am considering getting RTi 100 from another polkster out of the local area for my bedroom but I dont think I want to buy speakers without having heard them.

    Dorokusai, thanks for the offer but lets see what else pops up.

    JT, thanks for the offer. However, it is my understanding that the RTi70s sound quite different than the RTi100s, the consensus being that the 70's are better in the mids and go well with a separate sub.

    I guess noone that hangs around here has RTi100s in the metro DC area. what to do...what to do....
