Richer Fuller Sound for Mains

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I currently have a set of Monitor Audio Silver 5is for my mains. I was thinking about upgrading to somehthing with a fuller richer sound. I also want to keep my budget under $600 - $800 for the replacement set. I've seen a pair of polk rti8s for 300 and I'm wondering if it would be an improvement for what I'm wanting.

It would move me up to dual 6 1/2 drivers from the MAs smaller ones(5.5" CCAM). I'm also running an Energy XL-C2 center and was thinking about something larger like a csi5 or csia6. I know the mismatched front stage doesn't help and I want to fix that as well.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks

I really doubt that Polk will be an improvement over Monitor. I also could not find anything about silver 5is.
I think you might be hard pressed to find better towers for $800, I would suggest you go to $950~1000.
In that range, you can find deals on JBL L880 and L890, which would be a big improvement, especially the L890.
Or as you already have an Energy center, tried Energy towers.
