I am finally looking at purchasing a center for my system, and know there have been many discussion on a CSi5 vs a CSi A6. I have the option to buy the CSi5 from polk ebay for $225 or a CSi A6 from an authorized retailer for $299.00. I currently have four (4) RTi8s running a phantom center and a PL-200 sub. My question is does anyone feel the CSi A6 worth the extra $75? Thanks!

    Since you have 8's get the 5 and take the $75 and put it somewhere else.

    + 1, 75 bucks can get quite a few movies, or speaker cable, or lots of popcorn, or.................
