5 out of 5 stars A Great Little Speaker   June 25, 2004
 14 out of 16 found this review helpful

I have played these with a 50 watt/channel receiver and a 125 watt/channel preamp/power amp setup. The RTi4's sounded great with both. They have very good bass for the size. The music sounds very natural. I recommend these highly, and I am pretty picky.

These speakers are top rate in sound quality! I use them for classical music and I find the mid to high frequencies to be excellent. As with all speakers this size, however, a subwoofer is necessary if you want the full range of bass to really rumble.

Compared to the sound quality of the mid-quality speakers from Polk Audio, the RTi4s are superior. Well worth the extra cost if you're a music lover.


5 out of 5 stars Great speakers for the price   February 16, 2007

I've been listening to these speakers for over a week and am highly pleased. My previous system was a sony stereo system 120 watts per channel. Not only do these speakers have better quality, but they are louder.

I don't normally write reviews for products that I purchase online, but I figured since I was so pleased I should share my experience. Definitely use good wires to hook these babies up or you wont exploit their full potential. The RTi's have good bass but I feel like I need to add a sub to feel lower frequencies. When I turn the bass up it's too straining on the speakers, hence a sub.

Can't wait to add a sub to this banging setup! No regrets!



4 out of 5 stars Great for acoustic music and vocals   June 23, 2007
 6 out of 7 found this review helpful

These speakers are small enough to fit easily in a bookcase yet put out enough undistorted volume to nearly fill my house. They didn't do too well with bass-heavy music (I tried the Fugees) but they were extremely good with vocals from Bobby McFerrin--warm, sharp, responsive. I couldn't stop smiling while I was listening to McFerrin on these. Combine these with a subwoofer and you'll have a system good enough for listening to just about anything. I've combined them with a 5.1 speaker system from Polk, so I've got the home theater and pure music experiences both covered.
The styling is very nice: the grill is a curved shape that projects out from the housing, and the black finished wood veneer is quite pretty.



5 out of 5 stars Small but Good   January 18, 2008

I listened to these speakers at a store before buying them online. They don't quite have the full sound of a good floor standing speaker, but are very close in quality to my Infinity SM85s, which are excellent. Put a subwoofer with these and they are outstanding. If I had to, I could get by w/ out the woofer. I listened to quite a few bookshelf speakers and this was the best.
