Hello, I am a newbie to this forum. I am starting to put together a more audiofile version of HT. I just purcased a cs250-s center speaker for my system and i have found a pair of Monitor 50's. Do you think these will perform good together? If so, any suggestions on rear speakers to go with these?

Thanks for any thoughts you might have.

    I have owned many different polk speakers through the years. I have found that most of them compliment eachother well, even from different product lines. That being said, I personally feel the higher end polk models like the Lsi, should be paired with their suggested counterparts as shown on the polk website. Personally, based on your set-up, I would recommend a pair of monitor 30's to round out your rears. Your center should be fine, if not the cs10 would work nice. A value sub for your setup would be the polk psw10. Remeber we can sugest stuff to you but its your ears that matter. Goodluck
