Hi, i have 2 rti70s, i am looking at gettin a center channel and 2 rear surrond speakers? for the surrounds which is better the rti38 or fxi30. They are both the same price, just cant decide.

thanks.

    For the center I would go for the Csi40, listen to the two side by side. At lower volumes you will not hear a difference, at higher the 40 will be much better. It also depends of room size, as you don't need as much volume with a smaller room. For the rears I went through the same question (with last years models) I ended up with the Rt35i as I had to put them on the rear wall and they sounded better (to my ears) for music.
