Thinking about setting up another HT in my basement. I have the LSi 15's now hooked up in my current HT setup. I will probally buy another Parasound A51 amp and C2 controller. Now I would like to know if going from Rti10's right to the LSi15's I missed anything for HT sound. Not giveing the Rti12's a try, I love my 15's. But would you reccomend getting the 12's or another set of 15's. Would be used like current set up 50% HT 50% music. What are your thoughts ,THANKS. Oh and can the 15's really handle it if you turn them up.

I have the 12s and love them. Since you already have the 15s, give the RTi's a shot and see if you like them better for HT. I know the 12s can take a beating just make you sure youre giving them at least 200wpc, and it seems like you plan to already. Best of both worlds there for sure.Shoot the jumper.....................BALLIN.............!!!!!

Why waste your money on another HT room? Just use the cash and upgrade what you allready have and make it better. To me it's a big waste of coin what you want to do, but I guess to each his own right?58" Samsung Plasma (on wall)(calibrated)

Am I wrong, I was under the impression the LSi series was an upgrade over the RTi series.

Get the 12's, do something different.
I picked up some 10's recently and absolutley LOVE them. Actually, it's fun to listen to the LSi9 / RTi10 side by side, with MSRP being $10 apart.
Cheers,
RussCheck your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service. -
Having listened to both, I would take the LSi15s any day of the week and twice on Sunday provided they are driven with proper amplification.
