Need some decision making help here, I'm setting up more or less a nice MOVIE watching system in my basement.

I'm using a:
Yamaha DSP-A1 Processor
Denon 2900 DVD Player
A few other Yamaha Componets

Current Speakers:
POLK PSW 125 SUB
POLK RM1300 Front Effects
POLK CS350 Center Channel
Mirage Rears ( not sure of model )

My question is I'm looking at 4 different speakers models, with my set up what do the experts think, again this is mostly for movies and some music, I have another system I listen to for that.

POLK RT800, 8TL's, RT16's or RT12's

My goal is to find some RTA 15's or 12's but I have had no luck and found the above only. I need to make a move ASAP so I appreicate your help.

Regards,
The new guy
Yamaha DSP-A1
Denon 2900
Yamaha TX 492
Yamaha EQ 630
Monster Power HKS II 3600
Polk CS350
Polk RM1200
Polk PSW125
And hopefully some RTA 15 or 12's if I can find a set ;)

    I'd say the RT12's's would probably match the CS350 the best.....I like the original RT series but there isn't a bad speaker in the lineup.

    Welcome aboard.

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    I have not heard any of the others but I liked the RT800's I had. Great HT speaker for the money IMO.
