Need Advice About a Pair of B&W P6 Towers

[renowilliams]

Hi

I am looking to get a new pair of fronts and will move my RTIA5's to the rears. I have an oportunity to get a pair of B&W P6's for 700.00 CND, and was wonderring what you guys think of me using them with my RTIA5's. One reason I want them is they are cherry like my current speakers and my polk supplier does not have a pair of RTIA7's or RTIA9's in cherry left.

By the way I have a Yamaha RX-V861 A/V amp

I know these aren't polk but just wanted to get some feedback.

Thanks in Advance

your B&W will love to see more power than the yami can provide. The RTi A5 need more power in my opinion as well... I have the same receiver as yours, and I can honestly say my front speakers did not come alive until I hit them with far more juice. Get the new speakers but plan on getting a nice to channel amp to run them or you will not get the full benefit of them...
