Hi,

I already have a pair of Monitor 70 , CS2 and PSW505, but i am looking for a pair of surround for my 5.1 setup. I know the ideal setup would be Monitor30 or Monitor40 as surround, but they are not on sale right now ($130 for M30 and $200 for M40).

But i found local deal for brand new RTi4 (for $150).

Do you think these RTi4 would match my setup? I am planing to use my setup for music and HT 50/50.

Currently i am using Onkyo707. side note: my room is 14x17 with 9 feet ceiling (if that matters)

Thanks
Receiver: Onkyo TX-NR807
Front: 2 x Polk Monitor70
Center: 1 x Polk CS2
Surround: 2 x Polk Monitor50
Sub: 1 x Polk PSW505
TV: LG 55" LD520

    Hmmm. I'd run the 4's as surrounds then slowly but surely upgrade everything else for a kick arse HT setup. That includes the subwoofer and going to SVS or Epik.
