Hey everyone, I was able to get a decent deal on some RTi A1s but I've run into a bit of a problem, I really don't have a need for them. I've been thinking of using them to augment my 5.1 setup (listed below) and use them as rear surrounds, but was wondering if anyone had experience with this. I figure since they're rear surrounds it won't really matter much.

If you have any ideas or suggestions as to what to do with them, let me know. (Other than giving them away obviously!)

    RTi and RTiA lines are mighty close match. I have RTi10's fronts but an CSiA Center. Sounds great together
    LR Setup:
    Polk RTi10's, RTi6's, CSiA6 (5 ch setup)
    Onkyo 705 & Denon 3808ci Receiver, Onk 875
    Parasound 2250 Amp
    Sony 26" KDL series Bravia LCD
    Panny DMR-EH75 Recorder
    Panny DVD-F87 (5 disk DVD player)
    NAD T585 (DVD/SACD)
    Yamaha DVD-C961 (5 disk SACD/DVD)
    SciAnt Explorer 8500HD Cable Box
    Orig & 5Gen iPods, , Wii

    Plans/Fantasies:
    • 400 disk player that handles ALL formats, sounds as good as NAD with Panasonic interface & compatability.

    Should work just fine. Except for cosmetic differences, they're quite similar to the RTi line. And in the rear, your ears will likely not distinguish audible differences. Go for it!
