Has anyone used a center channel speaker as a rear surround? I upgraded my CSi 3 to the CSi A6. I was going to sell it on eBay to help pay for a pair of RTi A3’s to use as side surrounds and move the Bose 201 to the rears. But now I’m thinking sell the Bose 201’s get another CSi 3 or CSi A4 as a rear surround and still get the RTi A3 as a side surround. What does everyone think. Thanks for any input.

    Yep, sell the Bose. Always a good decision. Center channels as surrounds should work fine.
