    To answer your question. No.

    I am sure they are fine speakers, but I really like the LSi's and you would be hard pressed to find two speakers with a more different sound than comparing Polk LSi's and Klipsch.

    I am sure anyone who likes Klipsch will have a similar disdane for the LSi series...

    Mains.............Polk LSi15 (Cherry)
    Center............Polk LSiC (Crossover upgraded)
    Surrounds.......Polk LSi7 (Gloss Black - wood sides removed and crossovers upgraded)
    Subwoofers.....SVS 25-31 CS+ and PC+ (both 20hz tune)
    Pre\Pro...........NAD T163 (Modded with LM4562 opamps)
    Amplifier.........Cinepro 3k6 (6-channel, 500wpc@4ohms)

    Too bad it's CA only, thanks for the heads up though.

    You can like more than one team. Well maybe not the Dolphins, and the Jets:D
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    The only Klipsch worth owning are those that take more than one person to move around.
    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.

    Yeah, I do. But that's ALMOST as much as I paid for my reference series.
