Jon S Unregistered guest | Actually, yes, the RTi6 (and RTi4) do have both front and rear ports. But the rear port has a baffle that flares out so that you can wall-mount them or place them close to the wall. I tested them briefly and liked them a lot. The sound was very detailed and clear, and the cherry finish is very well done. |

It doesn't say anything about the front port(which is clearly visible). There is a diagram of a RTi12 that shows the internal bracing of the speaker and it also shows front and rear ports. Maybe someone that has a set can inspect their set. |
