First of all I am brand spanking new to the site (just found it a few days ago) and I've been doing a lot of reading and researching on here. Everyone seems to be very helpful and always willing to give advice.

My questions are, did I make the right decisions, will my combination work, and did I spend too much for what I got?

-Onkyo 805 receiver.
-CSiA6 center channel (replacement over the csi5??)
-FXi A6 (replacement over the FXi5??)
-a pair of RTi10's
-DWS PRO 600.

I decided to go with just 5.1 for now hoping that the FX's would do the job while I wait on RTia4's for rear surrounds. I am very new to the audio/video world and just wanted a good confirmation from the veteran's here that I did not blow my hard earn money on things that I didn't need. I spent an exact total of $2124.75 on all of the above items that I listed (not including the
RTiA4's). Any comments are welcome, I am very new at this and I feel like I've spent too much :confused: Please.

I am not going to get an amp just yet but will in the near future.

    for a complete home theater system.. that sounds about right on the price that you paid.
    that appears to be one killer of a system. Let us know how that new Polk DWS Pro 600 sounds.. I have yet to hear anyone having one of them.

    congrats on your system.

    you have received a tremendous value in audio speakers from a preimere company known for service and quality, get it hooked up, snap some photo's and enjoy your audio.

    yes if you want some of those junk speakers that shout fugly and shout and shout about how they are this or that you could of spent less but you would of been left with a pretty lame speaker system.

    Thank you guys so much for responding and reassuring my purchase (I feel that much better already). I wanted to piece the components one set at a time but decided to just pull the trigger and bite the bullet and I am very happy that I did. I am going to start setting up the speakers and wait for my Samsung LNT5271 LCD to come in from Amazon. Once again guys, thanks so much for making me feel better about my purchase =). Loving the forums so far.
    Reviews on the Sub coming soon.
