    The RTi-12's are an easy speaker to drive. If you're looking for a receiver, any of the big names will match quite well (HK, Onkyo, Denon, etc).

    Marc,
    It's efficient being 90db/w/m, 8ohms, but I wonder what the impedance curve would be like. Somehting tells me they may have a low dip. There are a lot of drivers there.

    Even with the number of drivers, the way RTi's are designed, I don't see their being a problem at all. If they were LSi's, well, that's another story.
