I set my crossover at 40Hz when listening to stereo music. It has good bass for an 8 in. woofer. With a sub it's set to 80Hz. The LSi is noted for the better tweeter. That's not to say the tweeter in the A9's are bad of course. I'm currently not running them with an amp but will get one in about a month so I can run closer to reference levels when I want. There are a few people in the Polk thread that own the A9's and they love them. For a person on a tight budget the RTi12's are the way to go. Other than the looks they are on par with the A9's and very hard to beat at the price they go for on Polk ebay. The LSi15's on Polk ebay are $850 per pair. Whatever you choose I hope you find something you like without having to spend an arm and a leg.
PS: Like you, I used to own a pair of Monitor 70's. The LSi15's are a world apart. The RTi's would be a leap up too. Not just some louder 70's.
