Just received a pair of rtia1s a few days ago and am using them for my fronts right now, later they will move to rear. I absolutely love them both looks and sound. After getting a chance to see them I will be getting a pair of the rtia5s in the future but now since the monitor 70s are so low at newegg I was wondering if they are worth the jump. Will they pair up alright with the rtia1s? Again, these would just be temporary until the rtia5s come down a bit in price.

    I think that they would be fine. Matching the fronts to the surrounds is not as big of a deal as having a matching front stage.
    Front - RTiA5's
    Rear - RTiA3's
    Center - CSiA4
    Sub - PSW110

    +1, the front three should be timbre matched, the surrounds aren't as important.
