Question about surrounds

I have:

2 RTi10's - Front
CSi3 - Center
DSW Pro 600 - Sub

Now I need to figure out some surrounds to go with...With how my setup is, I think dipole/bipole is where I need to go.

Are the Polk FXi series a good match for my setup? Or has anyone had experience with surrounds of equal quality that may be from a different manufacturer?

P.S. I NEED to have speaker stands for the surrounds...not sure where to get those from.

Thanks a lot for all the help

    Something called the internet can help you find stands- I'll go a step further - a great site called....www.google.com - but keep it on the DL. ;)

    Welcome!

    1. The surround you mention should work fine.
    It's not as important for your surrounds to match the timber of your front and center speakers. You would notice a sound sweep going from one main speaker...across the center to the other main much more significantly than a sweep going from main to rear surround.

    2. Go to: racksandstands. com they should have something you can use, but if possible, to save space and get the speakers higher therefore more background like, mount to the rear wall.
