Would these two speakers match well? Everyone I've talked to (CC, Crutchfield, etc.) says to match the RTi38's with the smaller CSi30. As much as I'd like to save some money on the 30, I love the robust sound of the larger CSi40.

As for surrounds, seeing as how I can't find the 500's, how would the FXi50's go with the CSi40/RTi38 combo?

    although i have not heard the new polk line-up yet. the csi40 and csi38's should mate perfectly. they utilize the same driver's and tweeter, so the sounds should pan from right to left seemlessly. the fxi50's would be the perfect choice for a surround speaker paired with these...

    I think either combo would work great, but hell, the 40 and the 38 have the same friggin drivers, how can they not match well?????

    That's what I told the guy at Crutchfield. He just kept telling me that Polk only recommends using the larger CSi40 with the RTi70 and RTi100. :rolleyes:

    Now that I've got that out of the way, I'm off to find some FXi50's... thanks guys!
