I have a question about setting up my system. If I hook my RtiA1, Csi3, and PSW505 to my Pioneer VSX-917V-K Home Theater Receiver do i have to tune it and set it up or can I just plug and play? and can I turn it up as loud as I want with out anything happening to my speakers?

First thing, calibrate your set-up using the set-up microphone that came with the Pioneer (MCAAC).Receiver: harmankardon AVR235
Mains: polk R30
Center: polk CSi3
Rear Surrounds: polk R20
Subwoofer: polk PSW404
DVD: Panasonic DVD-S29 -
If I dont have the mic anymore can I use any mic?

I'm pretty sure that you can't. That MCAAC mic was designed to be used specifically with the Pioneer.
You can buy a replacement mic (put a post in the want to buy section here...you never know if others have any mics lying around).
or
You can buy a sound meter (see link below) and adjust your speaker levels manually.

Mike's advice is great. When you get the Radios Shack sound meter, make sure you get the analog version.
