Ok guys; I currently am using the HK 7300 with FXi3 as my rears with the cs1 as my CC and Monitor 50s up front. I want the 805 due to its three hdmi ports! As for my speakers and the increased wattage of the Onkyo and all its features I was considering upgrading my speakers as well. I am new to alot of this and would appreciate any advice/suggestions. I was looking to replace the 50's first
and obviously want to stay in the polk family. BTW... I love my fxi3 and will be keeping those.

Thank you!!

    Well just starting with the fronts right now as they will be the most expensive; I would like to keep it no more than $700 shipped. Thanks!

    Fry's has Rti8's for $299 and search around for a Csi5 and you'll have a good front stage.
    Or, if you just want fronts, you could find Rti10's or 12's or Lsi bookshelves for that price
