Hi all. I currently own a RM6880 set that I'm very happy with, but would like to expand to a 7.1 system. Since the RM101 & RM201 are discontinued, I was looking for advice on what pair of speakers would make a good addition to my current system. I'd probably be looking to buy a new pair of fronts and use the four I have as my surrounds. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

    I started with a rm6900 setup, ditched the sub and got a velodyne dps-12 and polk rm7400t pair for mains.they also go by rm50t in the pewter finish. I am looking to upgrade my center that is a rm6902 and not sure if its bigger then your current one but if thats what you already have im looking at upgrading to the rm7302 or rm7300.
    I also just bought a yamaha sub as wel and though it says yamaha this yst-sw1500 blows away my velodyne.

    Thanks for the suggestions. Might be more than I'm looking for, though. Not sure I want to go as far as floor standing speakers. Anybody using the RM8s?
