Surround Speakers for RTi10/CSi5

mcauliffetj

So I'm looking to upgrade my surround speakers but I'm not quite sure if I should search for used speakers that are "timbre matched" or if I should buy the new equivalent speakers...

Here is my current set-up:
Front L/R: RTi10
Center: CSi5
Rear L/R: RM 7
Sub: PSW10 (next to be upgraded)
Receiver: Onkyo TX-SR705

The RM 7's were just a stop-gap until I could get something better. On one hand I would like to get the FXi5's or FXi3's because they seem to match the rest of my setup, however, I can only find them used. On the other hand the FXi A series seems to be fairly similar, and readily available.

So I guess my question is, scour for FXi5's (less expensive) or just go and buy FXi A4 or 6's (more expensive). Thanks in advance for the help, and my apologies if this matches any existing threads.

Welcome to Club Polk. If you want a good deal, at the top of this page^^^, you'll see 'Where to Buy', scroll over that and you'll see 'Official Ebay Store' , there, you can find some WHITE FXi3 with a 'Buy it now' price of $149, on page 3.
Just thought I'd throw that out there...

Try to score a pair of FXi3/5s for less and you'll be fine.

Audiogon has a few pair listed in black
