I'm considering either a pair of RTi6's or RTi8's for an office setup to play music and for general computer use. Which of these 2 speakers would you guys recommend? I won't be using these with a sub.

    Well, just my novice opinion, but the 8s are towers and the 6s are bookselfs. The 8s have more drivers and reach lower at the -3b level, so if you aren't using a sub and this is for music, I'd go with the 8s.

    Towers in an office??? Must be a big office! :D

    thanks for the input :D The office isn't very big, but i figured i will need to put stands on the 6's anyway so they will take up the same space.
