    prob. not. The 245i has the trilam tweeter.

    Anyway, it all depends on what your L/R speakers are.

    fyi...I am selling a brand new, in the box, csi-5 speaker on Ebay for $250 if you are interested. I purchased it before finding this site and learning about timbre matching so i am selling it so i can buy the lsi-c.
