I need a center to put with my rt55s. I have been running a pair of RT7s but they are going to go to the rear in a 7.1 set up. (Also considering repalcing side surrounds with another pair of RT7s I have) I assume the cs400 is the one but I have wondered how it would compare to another single RT55? It would probably have to go on its side. Should I just try to find a CS400?

Thanks!

Brad

    Before I upgraded my RT55s to RTi10s I used a CS 300 with them. Very good match. BTW I still have the 55's and the 300 FS:)

    My inlaws use a CS245 with them and it works well. A 300, 350 or 400 should also match perfectly. I would try to find a 400.

    Thanks! That was what I was thinking but when I saw a single rt55 going cheap It made me wonder.
