I have a pair of old realistic Mach 1 speakers for my front. I have a CS20 for my center and TSI200 for my surrounds. I have monitor 40's for front wides and a PSW125 as a sub. I have been looking at monitor 70's , monitor 75T's and TSI500's for a front replacement. I have an Onkyo Tx-nr809 as a receiver. I just want to know which speaker would be the best match.

    TSI500's for a proper timbre match across the front, if you are going to keep the CS20 as your center.

    I would do a side by side comparrison between the 200's and 40's. Decide which one you like best, and go with that line. The monitor and TSI sound different from one another. Of course teekat0007's advise is also good, if you have a tight budget.

    Not running HT but the monitor 75T's sound great in just my stereo (Onkyo 50watt receiver) setup Movies even sound good in just stereo also . So in a good HT setup they should sound really good . They can be had for around $200 a piece if you keep an eye on newegg.
