Trying to match the specs on speaker models

I'm new and on a learning curve but picking up some good info scrolling through the posts.
Who would have thought that picking speakers would be this hard?
After taking some measurements on what fits where and what I can afford the list is narrowed down to these.
Monitor 65T
Monitor 15C - May change
RC55i or RC65i - May change
PSW110 or 111 - Still not sure
The 65T's will fit better than the 75T because of height so I've made my mind up on those................for now.
I need help with the 15C, the cabinet is pretty big, is there another timbre match in a center channel with a smaller cabinet?
I've read a lot of the advice FAQ's on the Polk site and have questions on the surrounds.
The RC55i or RC65i would really fit well in the wall that is right behind the couch. Not a big fan of speakers hanging on a wall, so the ability to paint the grilles to match the wall color makes the RC models really disappear. One of the FAQ's I read said that although this type of speaker arrangement isn't the best it would work better with bi or dipole speakers. It doesn't look like the RC models have that type of speaker. Does it matter, am I over analyzing this? The plan is to mount them about 6' from the floor.
Anyone with experience on the RC55i or RC65i as a surround speaker and which would be better?
