    Sorry, the reason for asking this question I own the Rti 70 and wanted the Rti A5 and if I'm gonna upgrade I rather put out the extra $$$ for A5 bigger bros. Don't want a speaker that sounds similar to my oldies. What you guys think?

    Why do you want to upgrade? What will you be using them for? Home theater or Music or both?

    Ha, I forgot. There are a lot of new members posting these past few weeks.
    Nag? nah, you need to be sure you're going to make the right decision, and multiple opinions is best, especially over mine since I've never heard either speaker you're comparing (but have some from the RTi/CSiA series). I know where you're comping from. If you want to upgrade, you want to go higher in performance and sound quality, not laterally to a similar item. Makes sense.

    Ask away, plenty of good opinions to be had on this forum and by a lot more saavy than I.

    Oh and in case I forgot---Welcome to Club Polk!!
