What to pair with TSi200 speakers

Hello everyone

I just bought a set of TSi200 bookshelf speakers, and I am eagerly awaiting their arrival from newegg. I also have a CS10 center channel, which is hooked up to my Denon 4310ci. I am attempting to build a very nice 5.1 surround system for myself, one that will last a long time. I am looking for some good rear speakers now.

So the question is this: Could I get away with buying the TSi100 speakers for the rear channels? Or should I stick with another pair of TSi200s? Or are there other good speakers for the job?

Thanks in advance for your input!

    I have the TSi 300's for my fronts and the TSi 100's for my rears and are working quite well for me.

    Thanks for the input. I'm looking into them more and more since they are so much smaller than the TSi200s. How would you say they perform when listening to music through all channels?

    The TSi100 is a perfect rear channel. 5.1 music sounds pretty good with those, to great, depending on the material. They are known to be a bit forward and live in their presentation and not laid back or soft.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
