Do the CSi30 or CSi40 have a "kickstand" on the rear? I haven't been able to find pictures that show either from a rear perspective and I need to know before I pull the trigger for a new center.

No.
Doesn't matter. Just use a couple of $0.99 door stoppers to angle them.HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50 LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub

I'm not necessarily looking at the angle. I'd like to put one on top of my RPTV, but there's only ~7 inches of space until the back drops off. My current center has a kickstand that catches the edge to keep it stabilized. I suppose if I want to go with a center matched for the RTi 70s I'll have to put a shelf on the wall behind the TV. -

Gotcha. You can buy a TV shelf with a kickstand for your center channel for pretty cheap. Something like this:

That is the exact mount I have on top of my Hitachi LCD slim rear projection tv and it works great. Mount it so the platform is level and then tilt your speaker off of the platform with the door stops. (brown doesn't stand out as much...)
works great. I got mine at Circuit City.Mains.............Polk LSi15 (Cherry)
Center............Polk LSiC (Crossover upgraded)
Surrounds.......Polk LSi7 (Gloss Black - wood sides removed and crossovers upgraded)
Subwoofers.....SVS 25-31 CS+ and PC+ (both 20hz tune)
Pre\Pro...........NAD T163 (Modded with LM4562 opamps)
Amplifier.........Cinepro 3k6 (6-channel, 500wpc@4ohms) -
Cool! That's a much better option than the wall shelf. I'll have to get one of those when I find a CSi30/40.
