should I upgrade from Monitor 70's

I just purchased a pair of Polk Monitor 70 floorstanding speakers to replace my aging (but loved) Infinit Kappa 9s. The new sound is pretty good (I have a strong Bryston 2-channel amp to power them) but I was wondering if the Polk RTi A9 would be better to deliver some real oomph in my living room. I have a very good Keff sub-woofer for base, but am looking for some serious mid and high range delivery.

My town does not offer places to hear the differences, so I need some practical response from the people at Polk or their fans.

(I listen to wide range of well-recorded music from Techno to classical)

Thanks

    Welcome to Club Polk. The RTI line up is a big upgrade over the monitors. The LSI's are a huge bang for the buck speaker when it comes to music.
    Enjoy

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    welcome to CP!! Since u already have an amp and it is for Music, I recommend LSi15. U may wanna check out PolkDirect on eBay for refurbs. They r like-new and no one I know of here in CP had any prob with any thing they got from PolkDirect.
    If u r ready u may go for vintage SDA!!! Do some search and u'll find lotsa info here..
