He has the 1014, paired with jbl, so im gonna get him new speakers to fit beside his tv, the jbl's are too fat. im lookin at the polk audio floorstanders... cant remember the model num. their about $1100. are these good paired with the 1014? any other "skinny" speaker suggestions? |

Stay away from the Monitor line at Circuit City as the RTi line uses better drivers. Take a look at the Rti8 and RTi10. Both will go well with your Dad's receiver. I would think the RTi8 would do just fine. Take a look at them on the Polk website for more info. Good luck. |

The Totem Arros are simply beautiful. http://www.totemacoustic.com/english/products/floorStanding_arro.htm 3 good choices 1) Polk Rti 8/10 2) Energy Connoisseur C5/C7 3) Totem Arro |
