Opinion on surrounds...

Hey everybody, just need an opinion on which surrounds I should be looking at. I have RTi8's for my fronts, CSi5 for my center and a PSW 505 sub. Currently, I'm using RM 7600 satellite's for my rears...I'm thinking those would be a fairly significant upgrade if I can get something in the FXi series. My question is, since the FXi5's are no longer available, what should I be looking at? I don't need overkill, just a nice upgrade over my 7600's. Thanks!
My Set-Up:
Sharp LC60E88UN- Display
Yamaha RX-A2020- A/V Receiver
Pioneer Elite BDP-23FD Bluray Player
Toshiba HD-A2 HD-DVD Player
Velodyne DPS-12 - Sub
Polk RTi8's- Fronts
Polk CSi5 - Center Channel
Polk FXi A4's- rear surrounds
Monster HTS2600 Line Conditioner
PS4

    So the FXi A series would be a good match to the standard RTi's? Also, for rear speakers placed directly behind my couch would I be better off with bi-pole surrounds?

    Okay thanks, I think I'll make a run at the FXiA4's. Looks like they will be a nice match! Should also provide a nice upgrade over my RM 7600's.:)
