Hello looking for advice I currently have the full tsi line 500s in front cs20 center and 100s for surrounds.Recently I picked up some rti a5s for a good price with the intent to resell them.I have not had much luck selling them so far and now I really am tempted to keep them.My question is how can brest mix these into my set up for the best results?

I would suggest getting either the CSiA4 or 6 to go with the fronts.....that center center you have probably wouldn't blend very well with those RTi's. I'm sure the others would be fine for rears. But let your ears be the test.Living Room:....................[HTML] [/HTML] Zone 2 (Workout Room):

Thanks do you think i could leave the 500's in front and use the a5s as rears or will that screw up panning effects.I guess my dilemma is I kinda wannna keep the rti's but I don't wanna spend any more money right now

I'm sure that would be fine for the time being.....you just may get the upgrade bug like the rest of us here

So I could not resist any longer and took thos a5s out of the box and hooked as rears.I have them crossed at 40hz and they a great job at filling out the bass the mids seem more defined now.Its cool to feel some punch coming from the back too.Looks like I am gonna keep this setup now to come up with rent money:rolleyes:Polk Tsi 500 Fronts
