    seriously, if you have decided to get a pair of SDA's, then from this moment on you will always wonder what if and why not:rolleyes:... save the money and wait for the next pair to pop up. there truly is no comparison to the sda sound, and you will thank us for saving you the coin now:D...

    SDA's were built for music as were the RTA's. However, they will work fine for HT. Your current speakers were built for HT.
