Just got some RTi A7's, which replaced my Sony SS-MF550H. Currently still using a Polk RM6752 as the center channel, but planning to upgrade that next, either before or after a new sub (which is another story).

I don't really want anything too massive, so was wondering if either the CSi A4 and CSi3 would work. The kick stand on the CSi5 is kind of attractive, too, since I have a rear projection.

    All will work fine. The csi a6 would be my choice if size wasn't a issue.

    +1 for the CSi A6. I just recently upgraded RTi70's to the RTi A7's, and followed that with the A6 replacing our trusty CSi40...

    I did what mak99 did so +1 for the CSi A6. If you are space constrained though, the CSi A4 is by no means a slouch. I listened to it in the store and it sounded good too - just less bottom end.
    ALL BOXED UP for a while until I save up for a new place :(

    WELCOME TO CLUB POLK!!

    I concur with PrazVT above. And would add, at least now you're actually hearing some clean highs and mids after dumping the Sonys? Much better, tighter low end as well!

    Enjoy your POLKS!
