I got approval from my significant other for the go ahead in doing HT in our new home. Here is what i plan

front - rti10
center - csi5 (or csi3)
surrond - tc60i (no choice but to do in-ceiling)

My question is would the Denon 2805 be enough with this setup or would i need to go up to 3805. I have the psw505 but would i need to add it to the mix as the rti10 might produce enough window shattering bass while watching movies.

    I would get the CSi5

    And I would forget the PSW 505 and get the SVS PCi 25-31 (with the free 22hz tune)

    And I would get the 3805 or a used model, which goes for significantly less... 3802, 3803, etc etc

    Since you already have the PSW505, go ahead and use it. The RTi10's will provide a lot of low end, but the subwoofer will probably do a better job overall. If not, you could always donate it to the "SAVE THE OKIEPOLKIE HT FUND"

    With the RTi10's, if you can give them more power, then do it. Separates would be nice with those speakers and could probably be had used at the price of a new 3805.

    Get a nice, mid-range receiver and get a good Crown XLS402 amplifier for the RTi10s. They'll eat up 300-400 watts no problem. The Crown amp can be had for ~$250 new off Ebay. I have one and it's unreal.
