Long story short, my house was hit by lightning about 3 months ago, and I basically lost all of my electronics for my home theater system.
OLD ....................... NEW
Toshiba 50A50 ---------> Hitachi 51S500
JVC HTIB --------------> HK AVR230
Fluance Speakers ------> Polk RTI8's for my Mains
(my rear Fluance bookshelves were not damaged and do not need to be replaced at this time). XBOX / Gamecube and such were also fried, and have since been replaced.
I got lucky and found the RTi 8's at HHGREGG for 189 a piece, and couldnt resist them. However, my Fluance center now sounds VERY out of place...so I was looking at getting either the CSi3 or CSi5. I asked the salesperson if the CSi5 was needed, and he mentioned that those are typically purchased for the larger RTi series speakers (10s and 12s). Is the CSi3 good enough for the RTi8's or do I need to look at getting the CSi5 (which are 199 right now).
Thanks
