How do the RTi6's compare to the LSi7's sonically? I know my 7's are excellent speakers, but I know very little about the new RTi line. I bought a set RTi6's at CC new for $130 on clearance and am going to use one as a center channel. I'm driving everything with a Yamaha RX-V2092, which has dual center channel outputs.

Thanks for the help.

    The RTi6's are a nice speaker, but too different from the Lsi series in too many ways to justify their use as a center channel speaker. The differences in impedance may cause you a problem or two with regards to proper calibration and SPL levels. Timbre matching is just not happening. The tweeters are radically different from one another, so you're going to end up with a noticable difference as the sound moves across your front sound stage. Get the LsiC for a center speaker.
