centre channel dilemma
Need help in choosing a timbre matched centre for my system.
Currently
Yamaha RX-V861 receiver
RTI-A5 fronts
RC85I Rear/surrounds
PSW-505 sub
Originally I had a dealer talk me into purchasing the LSIC center, but after reading on these forums I am not sure if my receiver is up to the task of properly driving this center (Is it?). If not then my next choice would be the CSI-A6, but. I see the CSI-5 which seems to be (according to the specs) the same speaker? at a lower price? Is this the case?
Thanks for any feedback you may offer

Have you considered the CSi A6?
I haven't heard this new one, but the price looks to be about what the CSi5 was.Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid. ..... Frank Zappa
