I have a pair of RTi4 and I would like to know if the CS1 Monitor Series II center channel would be timbre matched for them.

Also, my setup have room for a 18" width center channel, does the CS1 are a tad less than 18" ?

Surround are the RM6700 kit.

    It’ll work but it’s not a match. The correct center is a CSi3, easily found on eBay. Since I always recommend going with the biggest center you can fit/afford, I would also look for a CSi5. The newer csiA4 and csiA6 would also work…
