Does anyone know what would be the best Center channel and Surrounds matchup for a pair of RTA-15TL's?. I'd like to use the RTA's as the fronts for my home theater system.
Many thanks.

    Welcome to the Polk forum.

    I'm not real familiar with this speaker, but it looks like a very similar driver and tweeter arrangement to the SDA series.
    In which case I would probably suggest an older CS350 center which can be had for $150-$200 on ebay or audiogon when available.
    Another choice would be the Lsi series center, which is newer and probably easier to come by, but pricier $250-$350 range.

    I have RTA15-TLs. The LSi center that Tru mentioned is a fantastic speaker, that much to the dismay of your wallet, might wet your appetite for more LSi action elsewhere in your system. :D

    If you wanted to stay closer to the vintage of your speakers, a single Montior 5jr might be worth a look. With the added advantage of being dirt cheap to try!

    Have you chosen rear speakers yet?

    In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry, and was widely regarded as having been a bad idea.

    I would think one that had a matched tweeter/drivers would be better, but according to Polk a CSI5 would match...
