Need opinions on bookshelf speakers

[P.HUNT]

Ok it has been 6 months so time to try somthing new.
I currently have lsi9's, lsic, and lsifx

I am looking at creating better bookshelf system the lsi's rock but I just want to try somthing else. Any one have any sugestions? Of course I would need a matching center and surrounds.

The mains must be bookshelfs though with my current system thats all that will work.

Why not visit the past. The RT55i's are an older product that had some great sound. http://www.polkaudio.com/homeaudio/products/rt55i/

If you want to go real old school try the monitor 7's
http://www.polkaudio.com/homeaudio/products/monitor7/

Both are available from time to time on Ebay, although it is rarer to find the RT55i's

My 2 cents.

I just upgraded from the rt55i's to the lsi's

So you just want to try a new bookshelf system? an upgrade from the Lsi's?

I got tons of names that I love...so many out there....

are you looking at just Polk?

I just upgraded from the rt55i's to the lsi's

How do you feel the two compare?

I have the RTi6 for the front L/R mains, CSi3 center, and RTi4's for L/R surround with an SVS PB 10 ISD sub. If I ever upgrade I think I'd like to give the Paradigm Studio 20's a try or maybe their Monitor series. But then I've recently become intrigued by the new Revel Concerta series. B&W always earns my respect as well!

Check out Totem speakers... They make bookshelves that go from $400(used) to $2500(used!) and have a few different center and surround channel models.

In a month or two, the energy pro monitors are going be available- Actively biamped and not that expensive.... That'd be a big change.

Also, check out dynaudio.

Are they better than there Varitas series??

[mldennison]

They debuted them at AES last year:

won't be available for a little while, but they're pretty slick. There aren't any bipole/dipole surrounds, though.

I've gone through the RT 55i, then to the LSI9 before I settled with the Sensys DC's.
