    polk RTi vs monitor

    Thanks for the input. There are so many choices I dont really know what Im after. I want the best sound for the $ Im willing to spend. I originally started at $400 and now I'm looking at klipsch and paradigm too. If I can keep it under $800 pair I dont think the little woman will be to upset.
