So I have Monitor 70s. Loving them but I know next year I'm going to get some RTi As for my mains.

I will have an HSU MK2 V3 sub.

I expect that when I upgrade to RTi A, I'll be getting the A5s since I don't require the subs in the A7 and A9s.

So for my rears, should I go with the A1s or A3s? Again, I have a sub, so I don't require deep base reproduction. It would seem that all I need is the A1. Wondering if anyone has experience with this?

    I agree on the FX's if possible, if not the A1 or A3's should both be fine for rears.

    You prefer the FX even for music?
    I'm thinking A1s because I can do a comparison of the Monitor line with the RTi line if I have A1/A3 + sub. But I can't really use the FX for fronts during a compare. I can flesh out the line with FX later if I decide the RTi is worth it over the Monitors. thats my thinking over the FX.
