Polk Audio

[Giuseppe]

Hello, I am new to the HT world and want your guys opinion on Polk Audio speakers. I am thinking of getting the RTi10s, RTi4s, FXi3s, CSi3, and Athena 10"sub. I am going to get a HK AVR 7300 receiver. Do you guys think this will be a good HT setup?

Great setup, especially with that receiver. I have the same setup, except for a CSi5. The RTi10's do need that large of a receiver IMO to sound their best. The RTi8's are nice, also. Can you afford a better subwoofer? What are they asking for the Athena - you may be able to step up to an HSU subwoofer for the same price.

I'd look at the RTi 8 fronts. They are perfect if you get a decent sub and cross them over. The RTi series is very power hungry, so if you get the larger ones, you are most likely going to need an additional amp.

Also, the RTi 6s are pretty big speakers, so make sure you've got the room for them in the back. If you want to wall mount, get the RTi 4s or the FXi series, as they already have mounting brackets on the back.

I would aslo recommend dropping down to the 8's in the front and getting a CSi5.
