RM6700 vs. RM7200...please help

I need some advice. I am debating on either going with the RM6700 speaker package, and adding a PSW404 subwoofer and
CSI3 center channel (using the 6700 supplied center for a rear center...6.1 setup) or just buying the RM7200 and adding a rear center later. I can't make up my mind and will take any suggestions. I am wondering if by adding the bigger center I will make up for any loss in midrange that I'm told I will lose if I get the 6700 and not the 7200. I have a room that is about 14.5 ft (length) and 16 ft (wide). I want to go with the satellites and wall mount all of them.
Also, will I notice a difference if I run the main speakers into the sub (as polk suggests) or not?
Please help???

Thanks,
Heath

    Have the RM6700 set with a PSW350 subwoofer. Used it for 1 year then upgraded center channel to Csi30. Best upgrade for the money. Really improved movies/TV watching. The upgraded center is really a huge improvement over the 6700 center, even my wife noticed and approved.

    I have a HK225 AVR so I cannot do 6.1, but I would recommend the 6700 with a Csi30 center.

    My family room is about 20' x 20' and the 6700 is fine for movies.
    Not the best but for the money a very good compromise for the size.

    Also a Csi40 would work but money & size are both increased.
