Hi all

Hi my name is Ceasar, from athens.(Texas) Have been here for several months searching for different speakers and amps. Must say the help has been overwhelming. But finally found my setup thanks to you. Rtia9 is mindblowing without the amp. Finally my amp has arrived and Im very anxiuos.

Wanted to comment on the amp thought. Must be the best looking product and well built for the money. and to boot ...a free shirt. Also the quality cables sums it up that this company is all out to satisfy. We will see if its all the things ive heard

    Ben
    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.

    Hello Ben,
    How are you feeling? I think a good fishing trip off the coast of Australia would do you some good. I will go with you if thats OK.

    The sound characteristics of the RTi line are different from the LSi. If all of the speakers match you get a more congruent and blended sound in your theater which makes for a more "realistic" experience in your HT. If the speakers don't match you can tell exactly where sound is coming from... Right Rear, Right Front, etc. You lose imaging of the sound.
