    Well guys, my A5's arrived tonight, and first impression is that the midrange is definitely stronger than the RTi10's. I'd say the imaging is slightly better as well. I crossed them at 80 hz, so my subwoofer took over and the bass sounded fine as well. I'll have to test some music tomorrow.

    So far I'm very happy with the switch and they couldn't look any better in my opinion. Simple but elegant. I'll let them break in a bit and report back. Also, I'll be switching to Ben's IC's from Monoprice ones. I expect another jump of sound quality from that switch. :)

    Fronts: Energy RC-70
    Center: Energy RC-LCR
    Surrounds: Energy Veritas 1.0CM
    Subwoofer: SVS PC12-NSD
    Receiver: Onkyo TX-SR705
    Amplifier: Denon POA-2200 w/ Ben's ICs
