Opinions on RTi speaker purchase...
RTi4's up front
CSi5 center
FXi3 surrounds
SVS PB10-ISD or Outlaw LFM 2
My room is 15' by 13' with 8' foot ceilings. I'll be powering the speakers with my HK AVR430. I do plan on moving the fronts to surround duty once I get a bigger place and getting either the RTi8's or the 10's. I also plan on getting a seperate amp for them. Will the RTi4's be ok for now? Or will I be better off opting for the RTi6's up front and using the 4's for surrounds? The system will be mainly used for movies, which is why I'm leaning more towards the FXi's. Also, which sub will I better off with? Are there any others I should be looking at? I'd like to keep the price on the sub under $500. Any opinions and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Without a doubt, I would choose the pb10 for your sub.
I would opt for the rti6's over the 4's because they would make a better surround whenever you move to your bigger place, for example, use your 6's for surround back and fxi's for your side surrounds. Remember, try to incorporate as much as you can from this system to your next in order to save as much money and without having to rebuy. -
Thanks, marcpam. I've already purchased the RTi4's, so they're here to stay. Got a great deal on em from a fellow Polkie. If I get the 6's for my fronts, the 4's will have to be used as surrounds instead of the FXi3's, which really isn't a big deal at all. I honestly don't have enough room for a 7.1 system right now. 5.1 will have to suffice.
