I think I have decided to replace my 10 year old Polk cs350 with a new Polk CSi5. Seems logical to me with my system size now to go from 4 x 4.5" drivers to 2 6.5 drivers. Do you guys think my Onkyo's 130WPC are going to drive them?

    Its logical to switch the center due to having RTi12s for better timbre matching and asthetics.

    Whether it is a better speaker is a matter of preference. I prefer the Trilam tweeter to the silk versions in the RTi line.

    If you do decide to go with the CSi5, post up some pictures. I have the same TV stand and was wondering how it would look with a center channel that big.

    That’s my only worry. I was looking at the measurements and I don’t think they will fit strait in but may if the stick out a bit (using the angle of the polk design).
