Klipsch RF-52 vs Polk RTI A5 vs Polk TSI 400

About 80% HT , 20% Music
Room 24'x35' 20' ceiling
This will be my first system.

My purchase will most likely be from polks ebay store or some affordable klipsch sellers on ebay aka i am on a budget.

thanks

consider the Klipsch RF-62's over the 52's. I think they're the same price as the Polk A5's. IMHO at this price range Polk and Klipsch are kinda tit for tat. Sound preference is the only deciding factor. Both are good quality well respected companies so you can't go wrong. I like the horn sound so I own Klipsch.

You will definitely need to try to budget for a sub with any of these choices. The 5 - 6 " woofers won't give you much in the low end.

The most important thing to remember is that you don't have to buy everything at once. Spread the purchases out and save up if necessary to get what you will be happy with.

Thanks for the info. I definately plan on adding the sub. I am just scouring the web looking to add piece by piece as I find deals. I guess I can skimp or go used on the surrounds to save money.
